We all deserve a space where we can feel free to be open, to show our vulnerabilities, and to work through the barriers that prevent us from feeling whole. I utilize my counseling skills and various modalities to create a safe environment for those suffering from trauma, depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and the challenges of life transitions. I help those with whom I work identify any habits, such as addictions to drugs, food, self-harm, or white noise, which may be interfering with their efforts to overcome suffering.

Voted Utah's Best Therapist 2022 + 2023. My approach centers the wisdom of our body, nature + relationships as the most valuable components in healing. Under enough stress, all humans make adaptations to survival. These survival strategies do a great job when they are first learned, but when continued outside of the context of their creation, they can reenact + reinforce patterns that are no longer helpful. It’s in this understanding that we work together to identify where patterns began, what behaviors were learned for emotional and physical survival + how we can create new ways of interacting in the world that feel more whole.

CBT, DBT, EMDR, Mindfulness, Anger Management and Psychoeducational approaches are tools I have in my toolbox for helping others.
Greetings! As a provider who marches to the beat of a slightly different drum, I have been known in some circles as "That Biker Therapist" which was derived from my tendency to be found on the highways and mountain roads of Utah when I am out of the office doing my version of "self-care" and meditation with blacktop and wind therapy. I started out in Corrections and then to Outpatient as I found it to be personally rewarding to help others before or after being in the judicial system. My areas I have spent most of my career working with addiction, trauma and depression/anxiety.

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.
