I recognize that if you are looking into finding the right individual to be your therapist, that you are very likely navigating some really hard things. I want you to know that I've been there. I am a mom, a sober person, and a woman who has worked really hard to heal her relationship with her body. One of my golden rules to being a therapist is to never ask a client to do something that I wouldn't be willing to do (or haven't already done) myself. I am passionate about supporting my clients in their journey towards health, healing, and helping each individual take the steps needed to have the life they've always dreamt of.

When my clients come to me, they may recognize that something isn't quite right, and often are not sure what that "something" might be. They may have a mixed relationship with their past and struggle to integrate their experiences into a clear picture of their place in the world, or even to imagine a world where they can flourish. Sometimes they are aware of the specific traumas that have affected them, and sometimes all they know is struggle. My clients meet me with enough hope and courage to hold that first session, and I am privileged to walk with them from there.

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.
