Anger Management Therapists in Falmouth, ME
Many of the clients I work with feel anxious, stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about what comes next. You may be navigating a major life transition, work or family stress, burnout, or concerns about substances or other addiction issues. My approach is practical, collaborative, and straightforward. I draw from ACT, mindfulness, and neuroscience to help people step back from unhelpful patterns, clarify what matters, develop practical tools, and make choices that move life in a more meaningful direction. Therapy can offer space to gain perspective, respond differently to difficult thoughts and feelings, and move forward with intention.

My goal as a therapist is to provide my clients with a safe, comforting, and nonjudgmental space where they can be their authentic selves. This environment is essential for effective therapeutic work. I encourage my clients to use our time together in a way that best meets their needs, so I tailor sessions to those individual requirements. Whether you need someone to vent to, someone to challenge your thinking, or someone to provide you with skills for change, we will align your treatment accordingly. If you're unsure about what you need, we can work together to explore that during our sessions as well!

You are only as happy as your unhappiest child. If your child's emotional regulation or disruptive behaviors are causing your family unnecessary stress, I can help. In working with me, you and your child will build skills and learn specific tools to manage these symptoms through a variety of techniques including mindfulness practices, cognitive-behavioral therapy, social thinking strategies, and/or Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT). At this time, I am offering in-person sessions and teletherapy (e.g., HIPPA-compliant video conferencing) in Maine, and teletherapy exclusively in ND, MA, and most other states through PsyPact.

I have never met an addict or alcoholic with a drug or drinking problem. Does this sound strange? The fact is I've met hundreds of individuals with a solution that is no longer working. Drugs and alcohol have been the solution, not the problem. Addicts and Alcoholics have an above average intelligence and a highly sensitive nervous system. This combination is especially challenging in these unprecedented times when it is natural to reach for relief in the form of a substance or behavioral addiction. If your solution is no longer working, I am here to help. I have maintained sobriety for 45 years. It can be done.

Most of the people I work with come to me after trying multiple approaches that haven’t worked—and they’re frustrated that nothing has led to real change. They may be dealing with ADHD, autism, anxiety, challenging behavior, or burnout, along with difficulties with focus, motivation, and emotional regulation. Some are parents seeking help for their child, while others are students and adults managing increasing academic, work, and life demands. With experience across clinical and school settings, I help them move forward by providing clear direction, practical strategies, and a structured path toward meaningful progress.

Something is difficult. The self narrative or the relationships - personal or professional - are causing a lack of ease and peace and you just do not feel like what you are doing at this moment is hitting the target. Life is never easy for everybody all of the time. If you are curious about the patterns and the behaviors that may no longer be serving you and you desire to be seen in your entirety with empathy and understanding, then perhaps counseling can help you to bring awareness and non-judgmental curiosity to why you are doing/thinking/feeling what you are.

I'm happy to do a free 15 minute consultation to talk, hear what is happening for you, and give you a sense of whether or not I'm a good fit for you.

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.
