I am especially passionate about helping veterans process traumatic experiences, moral injury, emotional numbness, anger, burnout, and the identity loss that often follows separation from service.
I work exclusively with veterans and active duty service members who are carrying stress, trauma, emotional overwhelm, or the pressure of constantly needing to stay strong for others. As an Army Infantry veteran with 8.5 years of Active Duty service including a combat deployment, I understand firsthand how difficult it can be to return home and adjust to life after years of living in high-stress, high-stakes environments. Many veterans learn how to survive under pressure — but never really learn how to slow down, process what they have experienced, or reconnect with themselves and the people they love.

Couples often come to therapy when communication has broken down, trust feels fragile, or every conversation turns into an argument.
If you and your partner feel stuck in the same painful patterns, arguing about the same issues, shutting down, or feeling more like roommates than partners, you are not alone. Many couples wait until things feel urgent or overwhelming before reaching out, and therapy can be a powerful turning point when both partners are ready for change.

You said you would never stay with someone who cheated. You can’t believe he did this. It's like a nightmare. You are considering divorce but you want to believe him and deep down you want to get through this if it’s possible. You thought you knew him. Could it be possible he loves you like he says he does when he hurt you like this? Did he even consider you? It’s embarrassing to bring this up to anyone.

You have already talked for hours and don't know how you can get through this.

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.
