Anger Management Therapists in Gilsum, NH

As adults we tend to isolate or fall into unhealthy patterns as time goes by without realizing the last time we talked to another person. As life passes we tend to lose connection to our loved ones, fall into addiction, or feel misunderstood. Counseling helps individuals reconnect as well as have a better understanding of their own mental health. Through counseling I help individuals recognize their body and and mind cues when experiencing events, isolation, and even large emotions.

We all possess creativity, natural resilience, and hard-won life experience. Every one of us can use these tools to envision a path forward, even in difficult times. However, when we're struggling with mental health or substance abuse concerns, it can be very challenging to see that we still possess these strengths. Depression, anxiety, trauma, and addiction can reduce our ability to access these lifelines, and make it difficult to imagine that life could be different. In those moments, I partner with clients to help them clarify their current challenges, evoke natural strengths, bolster intrinsic motivation, and renew hope.

Life can be challenging! We all need help sometimes but it can be hard to ask for help. I want to make it easy. I’ve been a counselor for over thirty years and have helped people with many of the issues we all face at one time or another. I am not judgmental because I feel that we have more in common than what seems to separate us. I believe the most important aspect of a counseling relationship is to establish a safe space where we can connect and I can truly listen to understand your concerns and goals. From there we can sort out the issues and come up with a plan to help you get on track with living the life you want.

I am passionate about working with individuals with chronic stress, anxiety, self-doubt, burn out, and relationship difficulties. My clients are often experiencing major life shifts/changes. They are people pleasers, caregivers, helpers and highly sensitive individuals who want to improve how they feel but have trouble prioritizing themselves. They want to uncover the hidden version of their best self and are ready to build confidence, practice self-compassion, improve their relationships and put their needs first.

How might you choose the best counselor for you? Do you already know whether age and gender are important factors? Do you most of all need a specific time slot? Do you need someone who takes your insurance (or you can afford if you have none)? Does your prospective counselor do a specific kind of therapy you heard was good? You probably are concerned that the counselor will understand you and your specific problem or issues, but that is something you'll only be able to learn when you meet them. Has this counselor worked successfully with people with my problem or my circumstances?

Everyone has a dream for their lives, relationships, children, and the unique gifts they have to offer the world. But sometimes we can feel our dream slipping away or that obstacles are blocking our path. You’re reading this now, because despite the challenges you face, you still believe in your dream and capacity for happiness or healing, and you’re looking for the right support to help you succeed. My experience is that the difficulties, traumas, or systemic issues people face can become their greatest strengths. The question is whether you have the right support to help transform these challenges into greater happiness.

I entered into the counseling field five years ago in order to assist those who are suffering from substance use disorders and co-occurring disorders. Often alcohol and other substance use are a maladaptive coping mechanism for other difficulties in life. I want to work with you in a manner where we together create treatment plans that are based upon what you are able and engaged to do. Allow me to collaborate and assist you in working towards a self-directed life where you can be happy, healthy, and present.

I enjoy working with children ages 5+ and teenagers. I am able to quickly build rapport and help them identify appropriate coping skills or understand behavior patterns. Although, I enjoy working with all ages to provide a safe space for exploration and a deeper sense of self.

I realize searching for a therapist can be a daunting process; whether you know the specific issue you want to work on or you’re simply unsure, but you just “know” (or have been told) you could use a skilled therapist. I bring to this work my experience, my knowledge, my empathy and humor. I will ask you to walk this journey with me as we explore the paths to growth.

Whatever challenges bring you here, you're probably searching for some type of relief, understanding, or solution. I applaud your courage and effort, and now let's make what you're seeking happen! I have spent years teaching and supervising future therapists, so I feel comfortable and competent with a range of perspectives, situations, and issues that occur in therapy. If this your first experience, I'll demystify the process early, and whether this is new or you happen to be a seasoned clinician yourself, our shared environment will be one of respect, collaboration and warmth, and if appropriate, spiced with a bit of humor as well.

If there is something you want to change about your life - you can! It just takes some knowledge and some planning. Today there are solution focused therapies that many people have used to deal with depression, anxiety, and addictions. Our counseling specialties include screening and treating all of the above and help you come up with a plan to have a brighter and happier future.

VT MEDICAID ACCEPTED. NEW CLIENTS WELCOME! Do you react intensely to others' behavior? Do people say you are oversensitive? Do you sometimes need to withdraw from people to feel safe? A history of emotional wounding could be playing a big part in your distress. But it is often difficult to make the connection. Emotional mistreatment is not like physical or overt sexual abuse, which are episodic and which often leave specific memories. It is more of a pattern of behavior directed towards you that leaves you feeling hurt, alone and uncertain of your place in the world.
