Congratulate yourself on taking the first step towards prioritizing the state of your mental health. Let's be honest. Suffering from a traumatic experience SUCKS! Your life can be made to feel more fragmented, confusing, unstable, and unsafe. The ripples can have negative effects on your state of mind, your ability to form and nurture healthy relationships and other domains of life. As a result, you may experiences increased anxiety, sleep issues, trying to make meaning out of life, anger issues, more substance use than usual, impaired relationships, increased risky behaviors, and suicidality. You're ready to do the work.

Often times we view our personal stories through a narrow lens, drafting a narration void of key factors that have shaped who we are, what we are, and who we desire to become. There are times when our peers, society, culture, family, relationships, or even our past continually write our present and future. I strive to return authorship to its proper owner and facilitate the creation of a new and preferred story. I use both solution-focused and narrative therapy to help individuals, couples, and families experience relief from their current obstacles and past experiences.

Parents, you now have many resources to tap when you feel that something is not quite right with the way your child thinks, feels, or acts. Decisions about what to do when something seems wrong are critical - not only to the well-being of your child but also to their healthy development and successful transition to adulthood. So, if you have a child with a mental, emotional, or behavior problem, or think you might, please feel free to contact me.

The moment you experience a change or crisis in your life, intervention is sought to overcome those challenges. A crisi can be brief or longer but when dealing with life-altering matters, someone who can meet you where you are in that season is key to pre-crisis functioning.

Is your Child or Teen having problems with anxiety, depression, or self-esteem issues? Is your family having significant parent-child conflict? I want to help you & your family achieve a healthier life. Adolescents and young adults have unique challenges that can be difficult to navigate. During these critical periods in life, many may face peer issues, family conflict, self-esteem difficulty, parent-child conflict, and difficulty with transitions (e.g., high school to college; college to career). I have approximately 10 years of experience working with these age groups. Currently, I am also available to see young adult clients.

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.
