Anger Management Therapists in Los Angeles, CA

I believe that the therapeutic relationship should be a collaborative one. Together, we will work on the issues that may be holding you back from living a more fulfilling life. I use a compassionate, empathetic, and nonjudgmental approach in which I seek to understand you and your life experiences.

I work for several telehealth platforms, including Foresight Mental Health (1-888-588-8995), Path Mental Health, and Advances in Mental Health (based in Long Beach, California (562-365-2020).

Sometimes we must take a look at the painful or stressful feelings that complicate our lives and prevent us from finding satisfaction. Obstacles may stand in the way of leading more meaningful lives. We may feel stuck or helpless to take important steps, work toward goals and improve relationships. If you can relate, feeling anxious, sad, depressed, stressed, etc., perhaps it’s time for therapy. Anxiety is overwhelming, depression is often debilitating, and maybe you are wondering if therapy can help. Therapy provides the opportunity to explore feelings of depression, anxiety, helplessness or hopelessness.

Even when your body is still, your brain won’t stop running and it’s exhausting. You’re used to pushing through but that doesn’t mean it’s easy. Especially when you have such high expectations for yourself. What if you could feel comfortable letting your mind wander without worrying about what path it will take you down? That probably sounds scary because you know how many paths it can go down, and it goes fast, but it is possible. You have a strong sense of empathy towards others, now it’s time to show yourself that same compassion.

Do your options seem limited? Do you need help to sort things out, make sense of your emotions, or see the situation differently? We may be overwhelmed, feel inadequate or out of control. We may believe that the future is bleak or hopeless. We may be upset with others, afraid of loss, or change. We each have more ability and control over our lives than we know. We can learn to soothe ourselves, remain calm and clear-headed when we face challenges. We can solve problems and effectively negotiate our relationships, but we all need help at one time or another.
