Anger Management Therapists in Nashville, TN

Is stress, anxiety, anger , depression, or substance misuse impacting your daily life and affecting your relationships? Therapy should be a proactive process that empowers you to experience results instead of just talking about it over and over again. I specialize in helping you take back control by addressing high-performance stress & environments, burnout, and traumatic events that disrupt your life. Many of my clients lead during emergencies and never thought that they’d be looking for help themselves including military service members, veterans, first responders, medical professionals, and their family members.

I engage clients in a non-psychological problem solving approach that allows them to discover their own power. Individuals learn personal skills that they can apply to their personal & professional issues. This results in clients making rapid progress because they are learning skills to help make the changes they desire, not just talking about problems. I believe counseling should be action-oriented and skill-based. Typically, clients learn the skills they need in 5-10 sessions. This means, unlike many programs, you won't be in weekly sessions for the rest of your life. Initial sessions last about 2 hours.

Something isn’t working (sometimes nothing works). The intrusive thoughts you can’t get out of your head, the bad dreams, the depressed or anxious mood, or you've been avoiding things that you used to love.

You and I both know that life can feel unbelievably messy, unpredictable and chaotic. It's easy to get lost in the frenetic juggling of home life, work life and relationships. You can lose your sense of purpose, direction and even who you are. Experiencing some measure of difficulty, distress and pain IS life, but what happens when your usual ways of coping no longer work? It can be all too easy to surrender to the unrelenting waves of frustration, despair and disillusionment when faced with difficult experiences.

Is your child experiencing behavioral or emotional difficulties? Does your child struggle with anxiety, sadness, or anger ? Are they struggling to adjust to and cope with stressors in their lives? Are you unsure as to how to help them? As children, we are taught math, science, and reading, but not how to express our emotions. I would love to assist your child on their journey to building emotional balance. My therapy style is one of warmth, empathy, and humor. I use art, play, and talk therapy to meet your child’s individual needs. In each of the sessions your child will be greeted with respect, non-judgement, compassion, and safety.

Wow! There are a LOT of therapists, right? Unless the criteria were super narrow, this list is likely a little overwhelming—a lot of acronyms, a lot of jargon and friendly smiles; maybe fewer cardigans than expected. It’s a lot to consider. For many of us, scrolling through lists like this can feel like running in quicksand. And if you tend to be hard on yourself, it's all the more difficult. Whether you're navigating major life shifts, struggling but still trying to pin down why, or just at a loss and unsure of where/how to start, stick with it. It's OK to take your time. There are lots of people on here who can help.
