Licensed Psychoanalyst, Ed.D. (CA Medical Board License #RP 227)
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.
Whether you are seeking to manager your behavior or your internal experience for the betterment of yourself or your relationships, we've got you covered.
In the safety of the therapy room, we can explore the triggers that precipitate your angry feelings and develop the skills you need to be able to handle them. We explore and target the other emotions entangled within anger, such as hurt, lack of control, shame, and fear.

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.
