I also specialize in anger issues, anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, divorce issues, domestic violence, and PTSD.
Are you feeling angry? Maybe in the dumps with little motivation? Is your mind often scattered or confused? Paralyzed by worry? Do you often experience conflict in relationships which mean the most to you? Does it seem like regardless of the efforts you make, returns are minimal to none? I have built my practice helping others reconnect to their innate place of clarity and well-being, to then resume life guided by their self-power and wisdom, experiencing a true satisfaction and success.

For me it comes down to living POWERFULLY by accepting full responsibility for our lives. In that comes freedom. Freedom from addiction and compulsion. Freedom from self hate. Freedom from toxic relationships. Freedom to "respond" rather than "react". Freedom to live in accordance with our OWN values such that, at the end of the day, we're good with ourselves. I'm inspired by such COURAGE on a regular basis. We've all got "stuff". At some point, the question is, "what're we gonna DO about it?" It's a great privilege to do this work. Note: I am not in a position to provide crisis services.

Starting on the path of counseling or therapy can be a bit intimidating. However, it doesn’t need to be. Working in a friendly and caring environment and with an understanding and caring counselor can make the process easier, more comfortable, and even fun. Sometimes we may feel as though we are broken; but I don’t believe anyone is actually broken, they are just doing something in a way that they wish they weren’t. The trick is to find a new way, an enjoyable way, a way that rejuvenates, reinvigorates, and brings zest to life. To learn more please reach out or schedule an appointment on my website.

Over the last 10 years I've specialized in working with teens, young adults and their family systems. It's hard to find a good therapist who can sincerely help those struggling with depression, anxiety, failure to launch, oppositional defiance, substance abuse, relationship difficulties, lack of motivation and emotional regulation. If you're feeling stuck, angry, lost or confused, it can be helpful to meet with someone who can meet you where you are at and help you create a better life though understanding, compassion and confidence. I work especially well with parents and teens who have tried other options and ready for progress.

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.
