Anger Management Therapists in Carmel Valley, San Diego, CA

In my many years as a social worker, I have worked extensively with children who struggle with ADHD, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and anger. I have helped many young people on the autism spectrum. I’m drawn to working with the younger population because, despite the troubles they’re having, their youth allows for a resilience that helps them overcome their hardships. It is a supportive, understanding, and humorous adult who can make a difference in a child’s life and their family’s life, and I find it a privilege to work in that role.

I am passionate about empowering children of all ages to make more thoughtful, informed choices in their life. I work with clients navigating grief/loss, anxiety, depression, anger, family changes, cultural and ethnic identity, medical traumas, and other challenges. Through therapy, children are provided with a nonjudgmental, safe space to process their experiences and develop skills and the opportunity to strengthen their psychological fortitude, self identity, and resilience through therapeutic interventions. All of this helps them to more effectively communicate their needs to supportive adults around them.

Every child is unique. To help children overcome social, emotional, behavioral, developmental, and/or academic challenges, we can't be preoccupied with simply signing labels. Rather, we need to identify a child's individual strengths as well as their weaknesses in order to design effective strategies that suit their needs. We work closely with parents, schools, and other professionals to establish a comprehensive picture of the whole child. It's from this highly individualized approach along with the collaboration with those that know the child/teen well, that we are able to create the most significant and dramatic change!
