Anger Management Therapists in Medford, OR

I work with individuals & couples in Southern Oregon, looking for support with concerns such as anxiety, depression, relationship distress, workplace stress, grief, trauma, feeling disconnected from loved ones, life transition, career, fear of judgment, anger, adult ADHD and more. Therapy can build a path from pain to resilience and it can help to work with a professional where the total focus is on you, what you want for your life and what will help you achieve it; someone who listens to the best in you and celebrates your successes and helps with setbacks along the way.

Clients have said that I offer something very different and powerful. I have seen those committed to their healing stop having flashbacks/panic attacks, get better sleep, improve relationships, heal from addictions, make more money while working less, improve physical health, and become happy!

Trauma shows up most commonly as Anxiety, Depression, Addiction (FREEZE threat response), ADHD/ADD (FLIGHT), Anger issues (FIGHT), People-pleasing/Codependency (FAWN), and relationship issues.

In my professional practice, I support individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, anger and relationship issues. I support individuals from adolescence through adulthood and find that most of my clients desire relief of mental health symptoms that have taken control of their lives.

I am deeply passionate about what I do with children and their families. It's a privilege to sit in a room or play with another human being and have them share with you their suffering, their joy, their anger, their confusion, their sorrow, and their successes. I strongly believe that mental health is essential to a person’s well-being, a healthy family, interpersonal relationships, and the ability and possibility to live a full and productive life.

I work with good men who have been successful in other areas, but are struggling with a relationship challenge. I believe in short term programs with a simple goal: Success ! After a career in the NFL as a linebacker, for Denver, I went back to school to finish my graduate degree at Cal State University, Long Beach. In 1985, I obtained a California Marriage and Family Therapy License and for 17 years I had an office in Los Angeles County before moving to Oregon in 2002. In Oregon, I have worked as an educator and coach in settings, ranging from large groups in the county jail to one on one private practice sessions.

I believe each person with the support of the therapeutic relationship can develop characteristics and behaviors of their choosing, and are not defined by outside events, such as background, trauma, demographics, etc. With the support of a therapist individuals can overcome all obstacles presented in their life and become better understanding of themselves and how their past has shaped them.

I believe that through self-exploration and skill development we can find a greater sense of ease, joy, acceptance, and vitality in our lives. Despite past or current struggles, each of us has a place of wholeness within us that is accessible in every moment. Through a client-centered, strengths-based therapeutic approach, you will learn to access this place, even when experiencing distress, challenge, or difficult emotions. I enter the therapeutic process with the belief that we are intrinsically whole, and that through understanding ourselves more deeply, we can achieve well-being.

My counseling foundation is embedded in Existential Therapy which offers space to gain a new perspective and adopt a growth mindset during or after a challenge. I adopt a holistic approach that focuses on the interconnectedness of emotional, physical, cultural, and spiritual aspects in your life, which play an important role in your mental health. I enjoy facilitating intrapersonal exploration with each client to increase self-awareness, autonomy, and resiliency, by utilizing various evidence-based modalities such as, Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy.

There are many reasons individuals seek counseling and regardless of those reasons I believe every individual can benefit from counseling. Change occurs through self acceptance, self actualization, and self motivation. My goal is to facilitate self exploration by discussing concerns regarding family, relationships, stress, self esteem, and mental health diagnosis. Though I have worked with a variety of individuals, my particular counseling focus is on thought processes and how those processes impact overall functionality.

Feeling disconnected from life and don't know what to do to change and get the quality life you deserve? Tired of feeling angry and misunderstood?
