Finding a therapist is a challenge. I recommend that you look at what people offer and then meet them before deciding. The work I do is based in helping people develop a different relationship with their internal states, thoughts, and feelings. Through this approach, I help people better understand themselves and their loved ones, find meaning when it seems there is none, and let go of ways of thinking and experiencing that are holding them back.

My interest in psychotherapy and the social work field is something that has just been a part of who I have always been. I feel as though this is a field that has more appropriately chosen me. I have always been drawn to helping people, whether it be a fellow member of the community such as helping to clean up after their house caught on fire, or merely a close friend or family member who simply was in need of some support. I am someone who not only provides support to my clients, but work along side of them through whatever challenges may come their way.

Sometimes life can be confusing and overwhelming. I believe that the most effective treatment is focused on providing a comfortable and supportive environment while assisting the individual, couple or family to identify and modify beliefs and/or behaviors that impede healthy functioning. General areas that can be addressed in treatment include but are not limited to depression, anxiety, substance abuse, trauma, gambling and family/life issues.

Life rarely goes as planned. When you've been hit with a major life event, such as the loss of a loved one, an affair, or the birth of a child, you may experience fear, isolation, sadness, or anger. Although life changes can be a source of excitement and growth, they often bring up unresolved issues, including perfectionism, shame, and past trauma. If you want to be able to cope effectively with life's biggest transitions, you need a compassionate therapist who specializes in your area of need, so that you can find peace and joy in your life again.

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.
