My goal as your counselor is to help you move toward what matters most to you. At times, difficult emotions can feel overwhelming, pulling you away from the life you want and leaving you questioning your ability to move forward. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore these experiences and develop tools for greater flexibility and confidence. Together, we can learn to “drop the ropes” that keep you stuck and create space to live a life that feels meaningful and true to you.

Does it feel like your life is being governed by an old script you never agreed to? You're doing the work, yet the same anxiety and relationship "stuckness" remain. You are looking for a shift that goes deeper than surface-level coping. You need a space where your history is honored, but your future isn't dictated by it. You want to move from feeling like a passenger in your own life to being the one at the wheel. You're ready to trade overthinking for clear, decisive action and genuine peace.

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.
