I have extensive experience working with clients who are dealing with adjustment disorders, depression, anxiety, disruptive behaviors, ADHD, anger management, bereavement and grief, separation and divorce, struggling with issues regarding life transitions, sexual orientation, job satisfaction, aging, and self-esteem.
It is natural to have moments in life when you feel depressed or anxious, and especially if you are in a certain stage of life which requires more support, or if life simply threw you a curve ball. Everyone needs to be able to set aside time for themselves, process through their experiences, and then work towards identifying what they need and how to get there. I provide a comfortable, safe, non-judgmental space in which to do that work, collaboratively and creatively. I want to empower you and to help you feel like, "I've got this. I can get through it." Because you can.

Your symptoms may appear as persistent depression, anxiety, anger, or addiction.
Do you feel stuck? Do you often find yourself feeling sad, angry, or irritable? Perhaps you struggle to even know what or how you should feel. When we’ve experienced traumas, we learn to live in fear, doubt ourselves, and question our self-worth. We can even lose our sense of who we are. These struggles might be new, or so old that you can’t remember feeling any other way. Regardless of how you got here, you are ready for change. You don’t have to do this on your own. I have helped many people find their strength, confidence, and a sense of meaning in their lives.

It may seem simple, but bad relationships, traumatic experiences, and difficult life transitions have a way of changing how we think and feel about ourselves - usually for the worse.

We specialize in treating depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, poverty, effects of incarceration, anger management and substance use disorder.
Mental health encompasses emotional, psychological and social well-being. It is important at every stage of life, as it can make daily routines and tasks challenging. Often, individuals are unaware of how their experiences are connected to their mental health, or unable to focus on those connections. Untreated mental health can increase unhealthy coping skills, dysfunctional relationships, low self-esteem, and unreached goals. Many individuals want stability, understanding and happiness. Having a supportive, therapeutic relationship can cultivate both personal and mental health goals.

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.
