Southern Pines, NC 28387
I work with individuals seeking to recover from depression, anxiety, trauma, or problems caused by anger, drugs and alcohol.
Life can be challenging, with many twists and turns along the way. We may even find that events and circumstances in life are not what we expected or are out of our control. In those times, we seek to find strength and encouragement to endure and perhaps even rebuild. I believe that everyone has the potential to rise above their circumstances, no matter what they may encounter. We can turn disappointment, hurt, or pain into learning experiences that help us grow.

I work with all ranges of concerns from anger to suicidal thoughts, offering a safe environment where concerns can be addressed, managed and behaviors can be modified to improve the life of the child and family.
Anyone can benefit from taking a step away from the chaos and spending some time listening to the help their bodies are asking for. Through soothing and tactile sessions such as painting and sand, calming music and a lot of plants, let's work on what is causing the anger, not just find coping techniques. Why we are self-harming and what are other ways to manage? What is the root of the family fights? Parents, let's find something different to do because yelling and crying does not feel good and it is not working. Come as you are, and you will be welcomed. I embrace all with a warm heart, an open ear and with hot chocolate :)

Psychotherapy is a collaborative experience in which you take an in-depth look at your life, perspectives and behaviors and explore what may or may not be working with a trained professional. Each individual experiences life in one's own unique way, with one's own set of personal values and goals. Sometimes life circumstances can create a conflict with a person's values. Sometimes people try their best and cannot change the way they feel. "Good people" can experience depression, anxiety, anger, grief, substance abuse, trauma and other circumstances, which, with the assistance of a trained professional, can be resolved.

A person coming to see me may be experiencing a significant life change such as a separation or divorce, a move, a career change, the deployment of their significant other, family problems, issues involving their child's behaviors or legal trouble, or problems in relationships with their spouse or partner. Others may seek psychotherapy to help themselves grow, deal with anger, or overcome patterns of behaviors or ways of being with others that don't work any more. Some people seek psychotherapy because someone close to them insisted they call me. I enjoy working with all of these presenting concerns.

Anger Management Therapists
How long does therapy take for anger management?
Treatment duration depends on the person’s specific challenges and circumstances. There are treatments for anger problems that are shorter and more goal-oriented, like Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), which can last weeks to months. Others, like Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) may last between six months and a year, while a more intensive treatment, like psychodynamic therapy, is open-ended, and clients may see their therapist for a year or longer.
How do you know if you need therapy for anger management?
Everyone gets mad from time to time. But when angry outbursts become frequent and cause damage to relationships, whether at home or in the office, it may be a good time to look into therapy. A therapist can assess where a client’s anger may be coming from, suggest strategies for averting angry outbursts, and help a client create a plan to become a calmer version of themselves.
Is there medication for anger management?
Medications do exist that help people mitigate the feeling of anger, but these are reserved for people with anger-related psychiatric disorders, such as intermittent explosive disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, or in some cases borderline personality disorder. In these cases, antidepressant medications may be prescribed to help with the client’s symptoms. In most cases of anger management, however, talk therapy is the recommended treatment, along with lifestyle changes where relevant.
What’s the best way to encourage someone to seek help for anger issues?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either themselves or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
