My approach is all about being warm, down-to-earth, and really connecting. I’ll skip the heavy therapist jargon and keep things real, using humor when it feels right because I believe it can be a powerful part of healing. Studies show that the relationship between therapist and client is at the heart of true healing, so I focus first on creating a cozy, safe space where you can feel seen, heard, and accepted—just as you are. Once we’ve built that trust, I’m here to support your feelings, explore new perspectives, and work together on the path toward your goals.

Everyones initial thought and direction is to ensure that everything goes well for them in all areas of their lives - family and community. Unfortunately, during social interaction and general communication there is no guarantee that all will go well. Their feelings can be hurt, cognitive functioning adversely affected, all of which can lead to the display of unacceptable behavior. Our defenses can become weak. Assistance can be sought to enable the individual to get through those mishaps. The care which I can offer clients will enable them to work on their needs, attain goals to become once again positively functional.

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.
