Through collaboration and compassion, I support clients who are often stuck inside their own heads. I practice through a trauma-informed intersectional lens, because I understand the pressures of systems, culture, and daily interactions. Through understanding your story we work together to get of our heads, and express the grief, imposter syndrome, anger, or other thoughts that are taking up so much time and energy from you.

Are you tired of feeling upset? Do you find yourself overreacting to situations? Have you tried talk therapy that didn't quite work? You're not alone. Traditional talk therapy often focuses on the mind, but what if the problem goes deeper? These experiences can get "stuck" in our bodies, leading to automatic reactions that hold us back. Many of our beliefs and emotional responses are formed early on, when we are too young to fully understand what is happening. EMDR addresses the body, emotions, and stored past experiences. I'll help you rewrite negative beliefs, process your past, and develop healthier coping mechanisms.

Healing is a journey. For some, "healing" means reversing years of trauma, and for others it means 'getting out of my own head' or 'getting un-stuck.' For everyone, the path to healing is a difficult one, and it is lighter, easier, more meaningful when others join in with you. To you who have tried to go it alone, I invite you to reach out. Connecting with a counselor is a way to get un-stuck in your journey towards health, to bring healing to those deeper places of hurt.

What happened? Do you understand your true self? Have you discovered how to live life on life's terms in a meaningful way? These are the central focuses of my practice. While I'm a psychiatrist with extensive clinical experience, I consider myself - first and foremost - a therapist who simply has more tools at his disposal as a physician. I always seek to provide holistic care. That is, I work to see and treat the whole you, not just the constellation of symptoms you have. As such, my approach shuns the conventional practice of overemphasizing diagnostic labels and medications. Life - with you in it - is more complicated than that.

Constantly making bad decisions in or around your relationships can take a toll on you. Compound that with the guilt of an affair or infidelity and things can get very dicey. Black men haven’t always had appropriate relationship behaviors modeled for them. We have to learn on the fly and will undoubtedly make mistakes in the process. Struggling with self defeating behaviors is extremely stressful and dangerous. When you make this kind of mistake where can you turn for guidance and support?

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.
