CJ Medina, here and you can find me on the GROW, Headway, or BetterHelp Platforms. I am a trauma-informed Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California and Colorado, who has worked with at-risk youth, veterans, and people with disabilities. Though, I primarily work with children, I have worked with adults in many capacities. I would like to have a balance of adults and children in my practice. I can take youth 10 years old and older. Any younger and telehealth is not the medium for me because of the need for direct play. Adults need to access their inner child, too. Bonus: I am a Rodeo Clown. Ask me how?

Hi, I'm Eddie! As your therapist, it is my goal to see you become a better version of yourself. It is my belief that life's experiences teach things about the world that may no longer be the most helpful or true today; even if they were true at the time in our past. When we don't adapt and remain flexible, we find ourselves in a web of mistaken beliefs, thinking errors and unresolved life problems. As a result, it becomes too hard to find our way and manage life's challenges in the here-and-now. I love to be present when my clients find a new way and authentically experience change.

I believe in a real experience, with real people, and as such I strive to understand the specific needs and afflictions of each client, individualizing the therapeutic experience and counseling treatment one person at a time. Though afflictions may manifest similarly across clients, each person perceives and responds in different ways, making treatment individualization essential to positively promoting client growth and wellness. Formal education and personal life experiences have provided an opportunity for diversified understanding of individual client uniqueness.

As an experienced clinical provider, I appreciate the courage necessary to take the initial steps to pursue behavioral health care. While earning a doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology, I offered therapy via my private practice and also worked as a clinical supervisor, director, and eventually an executive at a rural community mental health center in Colorado. I understand the need for expedited care with a professional you can trust, who has the expertise to support people in making changes in their lives.

Hi, I’m John. I’m here to help you feel more like yourself again—less weighed down, more grounded, and more at peace with where you are in life. A lot of us learn ways to cope that made sense at the time but end up getting in the way later. We find ourselves stuck in patterns that don’t reflect who we really are or what we want anymore. Therapy with me is about slowing down, sorting through the mess, and figuring out what actually works for you. I’m direct, honest, and not afraid to ask tough questions—but I also believe therapy should feel like a conversation, not a lecture.

You are good inside. No matter your experiences, strengths, needs, and goals. And maybe you want to expand on this goodness, or potentially you have things that need to be addressed. Sometimes it can feel like there are endless walls, whether that be navigating difficulties in our daily lives, moving through life transitions, or the same overwhelming thoughts that pattern our experiences. These can all impact our ability to have meaningful relationships, and it can be difficult to identify the source of the struggle or understand why it feels this way, especially when we are feeling overwhelmed and alone.

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.
