Anger Management Therapists in San Francisco, CA

Hi there, Please allow me to introduce myself. I am Allison Gentz, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am currently licensed in California, Arizona, and Nevada with over 12 years of experience working as a therapist and social worker. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, ADHD, substance abuse, trauma, autism, and development delays, foster care, and the jail/prison population. I have also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

Hello! My name is Annu, and I am a therapist in San Francisco (and online). I work with immigrants and adult-children of immigrants....also known as Third Culture Kids (TCK) or First Generation Americans. I work with multi-cultural and multi-racial couples, many of whom are people of color. I work with successful, career-driven achievers. I belong to each of these demographics - my parents immigrated to the US in 1971, and I worked in the corporate world for nearly 2 decades, climbing the corporate ladder rapidly before pivoting my career by going back to school to study counseling psychology. I work virtually via Zoom or phone.

It's a challenge to be in this world. You want to be considerate and kind; you also want to fulfill your potential. Were you were raised with a lot of "shoulds"? Were you told to control or ignore your feelings? Are there issues with anger- yours or anger from loved ones? Anger can lead to feelings of shame. But finding the feelings beneath the anger, you can accept and love yourself. And that can change your life. Here's an old, fun riddle about therapy: "How many therapists does it take to change a light bulb?" "One- but the lightbulb has to want to change." My ideal client may not know how to, but they want to change.

Hi, my name is Trinity Flores, LCSW, and I have a holistic approach with a goal to provide helpful tools and skill-building that can be used beyond the completion of therapy. I aim to provide a safe space for clients to utilize tools to improve the quality of their lives and relationships to reach their fullest potential. I take a client-centered approach to therapy and see therapy as collaborative. The most common theoretical approaches I use are solution-focused, trauma narrative, cognitive behavioral therapy, and managing and adapting practices.

You are bright, sensitive, and insightful but either feel like you’re stuck on ON (easily startled, racing thoughts that are difficult to control or turn off, struggling to relax and feeling flooded emotionally), or stuck on OFF (flat, lethargic, exhausted, foggy, unmotivated and disconnected from your vitality and energy). You may have even spent years in talk therapy, gained a lot of insight but have hit a plateau and may be wondering if you’re not meant to fully heal or if therapy actually works. It is possible to deeply heal - you just need an approach that supports your life's history and how it's stored in your body.

I work with passionate people who deeply want to feel connected and loved, but find themselves hurting in relationships. My clients come from backgrounds where they weren’t taught healthy relationship skills, and they realize they're stuck in patterns they want to change, such as self-judgment or blame, self-sabotage, avoidance, relational anxiety, codependency, or abuse. My mindset is everyone is doing the best they can with what they know. With a curious mind and multicultural lens, I help make meaning of your experiences, shed light on what exists outside your awareness, and help you learn new ways of feeling connected and loved.

Do you ever feel disconnected from yourself or others? Although our country has made progress in raising mental health awareness, a great deal of stigma remains. In many communities, these issues are often shrouded by silence and shame, fostering mental health minimization. I have experience working with individuals and family relationships. I work with problems that arise in blended families, work, health, and career, trying to create better relationships and less conflict. Through role-plays, Gestalt techniques, and mindfulness, you can gain the power to reflect on your feelings, understand yourself and feel better.

Have you experienced abuse (e.g. physical, sexual, psychological, emotional, etc.) in the past and do the impacts of it seem to keep coming up in your relationships today? My name is Soy and I would like to help you find healing from your past. My approach to support you is through relationships--relationship with yourself, with others, and with me. I believe that relationships are at the core of our well-being and I will walk alongside you as we explore, challenge, and navigate strategies in your relationships that no longer serve you, and build on the ones that do, in an open, honest, and curious way.

Are you especially hard on yourself, finding it difficult to prioritize your own needs? Or perhaps you are striving to express your voice and find a deeper sense of confidence and belonging.

I also have a particular knack with helping adolescents who are acting out or struggling with school, relationships, or mental health.

My name is Sabrina. I'm a Clinical Psychologist with emphasis in Depth Psychology. What is depth psychology? It’s the deep dark scary stuff we instinctively repress at the first sight of change-a job, relationship, a dream, a virus. Transition and change suck! But, no darkness is too dark, no fear is too crippling, because growth is part of human life. Don't despair alone.

What is it you most deeply want? I can help you find your natural strengths and let go of old beliefs and painful emotions that stand in the way of you loving the life you live. Through a mindful and compassionate inquiry into places where you feel stuck, I help you to extinguish negative patterns and to recognize and express your true gifts in the world. Many of my clients are artists and creative professionals. My specialties include helping you to have more fulfilling relationships, expand your creativity, overcome addictive patterns, develop your self-esteem, and experience greater personal growth.

My name is Alan Wong, and I am an LCSW having experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger management, & depression.

I'm passionate about working with queer, neurodivergent folks who have experienced trauma. I also enjoy working with folks who identify as part of the “still COVIDing” community. I offer support around exploring gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, and coming out. I also enjoy supporting folks in developing secure attachment and healing past attachment wounds. A lot of the folks I work with are experiencing anxiety, depression, burnout, and stress. They are seeking a better understanding of themselves and some relief. I support them in bettering their relationships with themselves and others.
