Anger Management Therapists in Pompton Lakes, NJ
Do you ever find yourself thinking, isn’t life supposed to be more beautiful than this? Maybe you are navigating a big life transition and feel lost. Does your anger get the best of you and often find you say things you later regret? Does it seem like you have no problem meeting others' needs but fail to be reliable to your own? Are relationship troubles consuming you? Is your child struggling in school or too sad to go? Or maybe you can’t remember the last day you and your child didn’t have an argument. I am passionate about helping individuals find security within themselves to find security in other aspects of their lives.

Being a therapist is more than just my job, it is my passion. I truly enjoy each of my sessions: working with new clients and clients that I've been with for years. It is an honor to be a small part of your story. Outside of being a dedicated therapist, I enjoy spending time with my husband, two children, and my dog child as well. I love shopping, spending time being crafty, and traveling!

My natural focus is on individuals experiencing symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and Anxiety with a focus on helping individuals ,parents and families. I believe that making a strong connection right from the start is important and when an individual feels like he or she is understood, he or she is more willing to give the process of change a try. It also helps when those who experience ADHD and or Anxiety are able to accept that what they are living with is not a disability but rather a strength and that it is okay to feel and be different. I say this from experience because I am childhood diagnosed.

People come to therapy for many reasons, but predominantly because they are suffering. They find themselves in difficult and painful situations, or are plagued by anxiety, depression, self-loathing or obsessions. But it's not the situation in which you find yourself that is the main source of your suffering, nor is it the unwelcome "stuff" in your mind. The source of suffering is your inability to live fully in the present and your avoidance of, or resistance to, your thoughts, feelings and situations as they manifest themselves. I will help you soften your resistance, and in doing so, find happiness and peace of mind.

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.
