I engage well with clients from varying ethnicities, and clients that might describe their experience as unique. I also have a number of celebrity clients, pastors and wives, business owners and couples who seek someone to be honest and direct. I don't believe in wasting time in session and "running the clock." Our experience will be intense, refreshing, and reflective. If you are seeking out a therapist that others can identify your change and development, then if schedule permits, perhaps we will have a spirit experience in session.

Welcome! My name is Mallory. If you're reading this and looking for a place to begin your healing journey, you've already started one of the most challenging parts – reaching out for support. Have you wanted to talk to someone but felt you had nowhere to turn? Have you been feeling alone or like you're not good enough? Maybe you're feeling unheard, angry, or like life's struggles have become unmanageable. You need a safe space but feel like there's no such thing. That's where therapy comes in.

“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” - Psalm 147:3 “I’ve always found the serenity prayer encouraging: “God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference…” I pursued counseling as a profession because I believe people can be equipped with the tools they need to process their pain, the courage needed to adjust their sails to the winds, and wisdom to confidently navigate the storms of life.”

Do you look capable and composed on the outside, yet internally feel anxious, emotionally worn down, or disconnected from yourself? Do you often find yourself overthinking, people-pleasing, or repeating relationship patterns that leave you feeling unseen or misunderstood? Sometimes past experiences can linger in your body or nervous system, even if you’ve “talked about them before.” Therapy can offer space to gently explore this. If you’re seeking clarity, emotional steadiness, and deeper, more authentic connection with yourself, you don’t have to do it alone!

You might be feeling stuck, carrying worries that won’t let go, or facing fears that keep showing up. Sometimes life feels heavier or more confusing than it should. You may not know exactly what’s wrong, only that something feels off. Many people come to therapy seeking a place to speak openly, understand themselves more clearly, improve relationships, or simply breathe easier—so they don’t have to carry it all alone.

At some point, we all wonder: Who am I becoming? How do I make sense of pain and loss? Does my story matter to anyone? These are not small questions…they speak to the heart of what it means to be human. You deserve a place where you can ask them openly, without fear of judgment. Your life has value. Your voice deserves to be heard. And you are not alone in this process. Anxiety, depression, and trauma can deeply impact how you see yourself and the world around you.

Waitlist for new clients
Leading others through ministry has been rewarding, but the constant grind has brought on exhaustion, chronic unease, physical problems, and anxiety. Unfortunately, these are "normal" in your life. You’ve had to press forward to achieve goals and suppress your own needs. When others see your life, they see someone who has it together, but you know the chaos inside. You have ideals you never seem to meet, leaving you feeling demoralized. You would give almost anything to have real REST, but no matter what you try, you cannot relax or find peace. You know this is not how you are meant to live.

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.
