Anger Management Therapists in Dublin, OH
I specialize in the treatment of trauma-related mental health symptoms and clinical presentations such as difficulty with emotional regulation (severe anxiety, difficulty controlling anger, hopelessness/despair), interpersonal problems and high conflict relationships, or problems with job/relationship/parenting/social functions.
Engaging in the process of psychotherapy invites you to become more self-aware. This heightened awareness can inspire and encourage you to seek changes in your relationship with yourself and others. I join in collaboration with my clients to better understand past and present experiences and how they currently affect life options, choices, and decisions. As a therapist, I draw upon clients’ emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual resilience to support healing and engagement in life.

Common issues: stress, burnout, anger, anxiety, ADHD patterns, relationship conflict, life transitions, and leadership challenges.
I lean towards targeted therapy with clear, measurable goals. Sessions are active and directive: we define targets, build small experiments, track progress, and untangle barriers. I blend CBT/ACT, skills, habit design, and communication tools so you leave each session with a plan or at least something new to chew on, and the accountability to follow through.

I’ve been a therapist since 2002 (that’s over 20 years, yikes!) working primarily with adult substance users and adolescents. I have a PhD in Counseling Psychology and masters in social work, I’m a Licensed Independent Social Worker and Licensed Independent Chemical Dependence Counselor. More recently my focus has been with adolescent substance users with mental health concerns. Sometimes I talk with parents about how to set boundaries and reinforce appropriate behavior with consequences. I also like to help anyone find solutions to their problems, manage difficult feelings, and reach their goals.

Self care is not selfish. We often believe that taking care of others before we take care of ourselves is the way it should be. But, if you are not taking care of yourself, who will? Do you have enough left to take care of your needs? Self care is more than eating, working, or bathing yourself every day. Self care is about taking care that your mental and emotional needs are being met. I want to help you to help yourself in getting your emotional and mental health needs met.

You’re used to handling things on your own, but lately it’s been harder to quiet your mind and feel grounded in yourself.
You may find yourself overthinking conversations, carrying stress long after the day ends, struggling with anxiety, or feeling emotionally drained by relationships, pressure, or constant self-doubt. Even when life looks manageable on the outside, internally you may feel stuck, disconnected, or exhausted from trying to hold everything together.

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.
