Anger Management Therapists in Berkley, MI

Often times the effects of old and new emotional wounds can become a person's way of life. This way of life tends to cause an individual to have feelings of loneliness, hopelessness/helplessness, thoughts leading to emotional pain, and ineffective actions that led to self-defeat. Are you dealing with emotional pain or after effects of a traumatic experience(s)? As a counselor I have aspirations to help empower you to overcome your inner battle and win! I am a licensed counselor who believes that inner healing is possible and understands the importance of having a quality of life.

I believe that the process a perspective client goes through to not only identify the right therapist for them, but also develop a therapeutic relationship, is daunting and difficult. Because of this, I strive to provide a psycho-therapeutic environment that is uniquely collaborative. My approach to psychotherapy reflects the individuality of the client, and also provides an opportunity to identify core difficulties, discover a means of overcoming them, and work towards a deeper self-understanding. I focus on depression, anxiety, trauma resolution, anger, substance abuse, family discord, job stress, and problems of adolescence.

My background and training originate in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and prioritizing client self-determination.

Do you have a history of chronic pain or the following symptoms: Back Pain, Tension Headaches, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Abdominal Pain, Foot Pain, Sciatic Pain, IBS, Chronic Fatigue, Insomnia, or Dizziness?

For 20 years I have been helping people through difficult times in their lives. Difficulties like anxiety, depression, stressful life changes, and issues with relationships and sexuality. I have seen hundreds of clients and helped them recognize what's really holding them back. My practice is grounded in these core beliefs: We all can change; all people are worthy of dignity and respect; everyone is deserving of love; the answers to our struggles are inside us.

Trying to make sense of painful and difficult experiences is a challenging task for all of us. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship distress, or behaviors that interfere with living a full life, I provide a safe and welcoming atmosphere where you can identify personal goals, engage in meaningful therapy, and find resolution and healing.

Therapy is a deeply personal journey that requires a therapist who is able to adapt, presume competence, and be willing to learn and grow alongside their clients. I utilize neurodivergent-affirming, strengths-based practices to meet folks where they are, develop awareness and self-knowledge, and empower movement toward personal goals. Utilizing psycho-education, experiential methods, play, visual supports, CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed practices, I am looking to support clients aged 10-100 who are looking to make positive changes in their lives.

My focus as a counselor is to help you find yourself again. It is so easy to get lost in a relationship, job, parenthood, substances and/or life transition. We start to feel disconnected and out of tune with who we are and what we want out of life. We don't need to figure it out on our own, we get to do it together! Through conscious conversation and changing of perspective we can get unstuck and start to feel more connected to ourselves and our world. You deserve to have someone hold space for you and that's what I do.

As a philosophical therapist, I've found there are life-altering narratives to be discovered and created through thoughtful conversation. Our thoughts are our reality. Examining those thoughts gives us the greatest opportunity for alignment. I help my clients explore their unique meanings and experiences, empowering them to influence new habits and reach subconscious realms to bring clarity and affect change.

I strive to be an approachable, non-judgmental, and empathetic therapist, who works to empower clients. I have experience in working with a wide range of people including parents seeking support for their children with behavioral and/or impulse control issues. As well as persons with anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, and affirming the LGBTQ+ self-discovery process. I also work with families to increase more effective communication.
