Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Does your partner say you overreact? Maybe you feel like you're stressed all the time and when one thing is resolved another always seems to take its place? Maybe you feel you get to a breaking point and after that, it's hard to control what happens next? Together, not only will we manage how your anger expresses itself outwardly, but we will also work to address the roots of your anger so you can experience healing from the inside out.
Learning to deal with our anger in a healthy way is vital for our well being. Anger turned inward becomes depression and I have experience helping people find healthy ways of expressing their anger and emotional regulation.
Anger is one of the most misunderstood emotions. Anger is not evil. It is a natural and understandable reaction to an injustice or boundary violation. Ongoing anger problems in adulthood are often reflective of unresolved emotional wounds, usually around neglect, enmeshment, or mistreatment of some kind.

My approach to therapy as a Jungian analyst is to listen deeply to discover the unique person that you are and the problems you are facing. In a safe, caring, and supportive setting we will utilize dream analysis, journaling, and other creative work to help guide you back to the wisdom within.
I help men work on managing the anger they cannot control. I have a three-pronged approach. First, I teach my clients about what causes anger (hint: unmet expectations). Second, we look at how anger works in the brain, including the ways our memories influence our anger. And finally, I teach my clients hands-on skills that they can use to tame their anger when it arises. These three approaches, when taken together, help my clients better understand their anger and themselves. My clients' relationships at home and work often improve as well.

Then, clear out the negative energy which is giving it life. The Client will then become calm, clear & positive.
I collaborate with individuals to understand the underlying narratives driving their emotions. Through reflective questioning and dialogue, clients are encouraged to explore the origins of their anger, what fuels it, and how they can diminish its effects while striving to achieve their intended goals.
