I work with people who struggle to manage anger, who are struggling to create and maintain emotional and relational intimacy, people who are finding it hard to manage loss, political stress, anxiety, and depression.
I seek to create a warm, down-to-earth, and accepting experience for you to explore the hard-ass things you have been through or are currently going through. Many of us, myself included, were rarely taught how to connect with and understand our emotions. So when we experience difficult feelings like sadness, disappointment, shame, fear, grief, and pain, we often do what we know most, to cope and suffer in isolation and silence. But that can change. We will work together to heal and care for the parts of yourself that often you have had no idea what to do with. The wounds you have carried with you all your life can be healed.

You’re a driven professional who’s great at getting things done for everyone else, but as stress and anxiety at work build up, issues arise more frequently in relationships, or old traumas keep you stuck in the same loop of overthinking and burnout. You want clarity about what’s working, honest insight into what needs an upgrade, and practical tools you can actually use between meetings, commutes, and family responsibilities. You want steadier moods, healthier communication, stronger self-trust, and a daily rhythm that supports both your ambition and your well-being.

I work with men from a Jungian depth perspective, who struggle with anger management and domestic violence.
Often times anger is brought on by unmet expectations and a symptom of deeper issues not being addressed. It's my job to metaphorically stand in a place you can not see, and point you in the right direction as to the cause of what is contributing to the anger.

I approach therapy as a collaborative relationship between myself and my clients. My approach to therapy adheres to core principles of effective mental health care. The emphasis on collaboration is particularly valuable - it empowers clients as active participants in their healing journey rather than passive recipients of care. Real life issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and vocational uncertainty can be heavy loads if we must carry them alone. I appreciate every person's situation and am honored to help them in becoming their best self.
I also am a Supervisor for LMHCA clinicians. Inquire for more information.

Couples often come to therapy when communication has broken down, trust feels fragile, or every conversation turns into an argument.
If you and your partner feel stuck in the same painful patterns, arguing about the same issues, shutting down, or feeling more like roommates than partners, you are not alone. Many couples wait until things feel urgent or overwhelming before reaching out, and therapy can be a powerful turning point when both partners are ready for change.

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.
