Anger Management Therapists in Santa Fe, NM

I have been a practicing psychotherapist since 1982. I have worked in a variety of settings and am comfortable treating individuals, couples, and families. I especially enjoy working with older adolescents/young adults struggling with self-identity issues that can include co-occurring disorders. Strong background in treating substance use disorders. I also specialize in anger related issues with concomitant mood disorders.

Sometimes we find ourselves closed off, disconnected, in a state of hurt and protection,confused or being overly critical of ourselves. This can affect our lives in many ways; as lack of self-confidence, blame, isolation, unhealthy relationships, anger , resignation or addictions. I want to help you develop the tools and find your inner resources to have peace in your life and heal past hurt. Healing can happen when we find safety within ourselves and with another person. This is what counseling provides and what I offer you: a safe non judgmental space to be yourself freely.

Have you ever wondered why it seems you always get the same results in relationship? Since there are many forms of relating, it's likely you find common threads in most of those. We live in a culture that promotes codependency and fails to support us on a path of personal empowerment. This colors not only our perception of others, but also of ourselves. Feelings of sadness, grief and anger arise, and are difficult to calm. With focus on intention, coaching toward better boundaries, and clearer communication, it's possible to find more joy and harmony in life.

In my practice I focus on helping clients achieve their goals in a safe, supportive environment. Working to increase their quality of life whether they suffer from symptoms of anxiety, depression or anger . Once able to let go of past unhealthy patterns clients can be free to live up to their highest potential. I have much experience working with clients of diverse backgrounds and enjoy the opportunity to do so.

I start from the idea that we are all spiritual beings having a human experience and it’s this humanness that presents us with both unlimited abundance and challenges. Life can be complex and full at any age and most everyone is confronting an element of transition or change daily. Change, as we have all heard at one time or another, is the only constant in life. I believe we are motivated to change and evolve in life, that the Universe is nudging us to live more fully, with greater presence and gratitude. While the process of growth may not be necessarily simple, it is attainable to all of us.

I enjoy working and developing a therapeutic relationship with people that are struggling in their life whether it's with depression, anger , trauma, anxiety, relationships or even a sense that something needs to change. It's within that struggle that the spark of hope resides and I see it as my job to help people focus on their future, their strengths and successes and then begin to rediscover the hope and power to begin to shape their future and their lives.

Are you feeling disappointed or unfulfilled in life? You have the power to change this. Through self-introspection you will begin to understand how your life choices are impacting your wellbeing and happiness. I will encourage you to take responsibility for your choices, empower you to make choices that align with your true authentic self, and in turn create a life that is worth living. I have experience helping people work through the challenges of life, including self-esteem, relationship issues, women's issues, conflict resolutions, life transitions, and anger management .

I specialize in working with adults who are survivors of childhood abuse or neglect, especially when it shows up in anger issues, low-self esteem, disordered eating, or relationship conflict. I am experienced working with adults who have largely overcome childhood abuse and neglect to create a successful life, but who find that on a deeper level, that wounding is still in need of healing. The emotional aspects of childhood abuse and neglect show up in our most important relationships, creating frustrating blocks to healthy intimacy and resilient self-esteem.

I provide telehealth therapy in most states in the US and psychiatric medication management practice in New Mexico. Do you want to reduce your anxiety, depression, guilt, anger , trauma, or obsessive behaviors that cause you and those close to you distress? I have doctoral degrees in psychology, medicine, and utilize the procedures to help you achieve the best quality of life. I want you to understand what the issues are and how to best deal with them. This process involves a team effort to help you reduce the emotional distress in your life. I work to increase your strengths so you can take back control of your life.

The quality I enjoy most in a client is an intense desire to be free.

I work extremely well with clients who are motivated to change their lives. Often, our greatest challenges come during times of major life transitions. Through active listening and genuine empathy, I help my clients focus upon the inherent solutions to their most pressing problems. Motivation to change comes with the willingness to look closely and investigate the stories we tell ourselves. Often, I discover with my clients that their oldest and most damaging internal stories are simply not true. By having a fellow human who is open and fully present witness our lives, we can discover the very real possibility for greater health and happiness.

My orientation is to work with both individuals and couples in a manner that considers our relatedness to life. With individuals struggling with anxiety, depression or work/life stress, I will take into account the relational factors contributing to the issues which may include environments, people, culture, expectations and roles. With couples, I consider the relational dynamics between each other, as we address ways to navigate distressing situations.

I am not accepting individual clients. I am currently accepting clients for "Become your own loving Inner Parent" therapy group, which starts June 20- July 25, Tuesdays, 4:30pm -6:00pm. This group will dive deeply into parts work, to help heal early relational trauma. Due to the depth of this work, there is a prerequisite for group members to be working with an individual therapist on a weekly basis during the duration of the group. Group is limited to 8 people. Please email me to schedule an initial consult to see if this is a good fit for you. More information is below. Private pay only for group.

Exploration and resolution of issues and challenges is a part of the call to therapy. Each of us has a spark—that inherent worth which makes us unique and valuable. Discovering or re-discovering our spark can be one of the most exciting journeys we ever take. Spark can also mean our life purpose, direction, or how we want to live in the world. We seek to uncover this spark because we know, deep down, that there is more, a lot more, than what we experience in our day to day lives. My calling is facilitating others in re-igniting their spark. My approach is simple, grounded in the awareness of your pre-existing awesomeness.
