I help empower people around life problems such as anxiety, anger, grief and parenting issues.
I believe in the uniqueness of each human being and that all people have inherent strengths. I know when a person seeks counseling it is because he/she is feeling overwhelmed or stuck. In the safety of a professional helping relationship you will address those areas as well as recognize and utilize your own strengths so you can move forward to resolve your problems. I work with people on a variety of difficult life issues and I meet each person where they are at. In addition to helping individual adults, I work with parents, families and children ages 7-18.

My clients should expect that the majority of their "work" will be outside of the office through homework, exposure and task completion. My clients will benefit from initial sessions that are focused on insight development and understanding the "why" of their current emotional dysregulation . Unmet needs, patterns of behavior and most importantly patterns of thought will be identified. Clients will then spend time utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) strategies and interventions. Clients will experience therapy that will prioritize and embrace behavioral activation as the vehicle of change. Expect feedback and support!

Are past traumas impacting your life? Do you say or do things that you later regret? Do you struggle with identifying and communicating your feelings? Do you have intrusive thoughts, flashbacks, or recurring distressing dreams? Do you drink alcohol or use other substances or gamble or do other self-destructive behaviors that cause self-harm or disrupt your life? Are you a people pleaser? Do you struggle with setting boundaries? Anything that keeps you from living a full life is either built on a lie or a self-defeating memory; what is limiting you? What is keeping you from having the life you want?

All of us face challenges every day. Some are large in nature and require a lot of assistance to get through, others are smaller and require minimal help. Therapy starts with identifying these challenges and then developing the skills to reduce and ideally resolve them. Some therapy focuses on gaining insight into the origin of the issue which helps to reduce and resolve it, other therapy is focused on solving a specific issue. Some therapy spans years while others can be as short as a few months. I believe in the inherent healing capacity of the individual.

Unfortunately I do not have openings at this time. This will be updated when that changes. EMDR is a trauma treatment that helps desensitize disturbing memories. I typically work with women who may have tried talk therapy or other treatments and want to try something different.

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.
