Anger Management Counseling That Provides So Much More Than Basic “Anger Management”
- You are a good person.
- You contribute to society in meaningful ways.
- You would want the best for others and yourself.
The problem is your anger is out of control and is causing problems in your life. Your anger is not just hurting your relationships –It’s hurting you. Intense or explosive anger damages your relationships with your partner, your friendships, your kids and your work colleagues. You might be finding that people reject you or shy away because they fear your anger… or they’re simply fed up with it.
Chronic anger not only hurts you, your relationships and your life emotionally, it also affects your physical health. Ongoing anger wears on your cardiovascular, your immune system and can lead to serious health problems. You feel embarrassment and shame. You’re upset with yourself because you can’t seem to stop it. At times you feel isolated and alone.
Your problem with anger can make your life miserable.
You’ve told yourself umpteen times that it has to stop…but then you find yourself flying off the handle yet again. You’ve come to the right place, because through therapy…

Have These Fears Prevented You from Seeking Help For Your Anger in the Past?
You are afraid of being labeled as a “bad” person. You don’t want to be associated with people who you think are violent or abusive. You believed this is just the way you are. You can’t stop your angry outbursts so why bother trying?

The “Go-To” Therapist for Those Wanting to Heal Anger and Grow – Not Simply “Manage” Their Anger.
I’m considered the “go to therapist” in San Francisco for people who are committed to turning their lives around through healing their anger. I’ve been successfully doing both individual therapy and anger management groups for those with anger problems for over 14 years. The work I do with my clients is so much more than what is done in your typical anger management groups. In my counseling or group sessions, we go far beyond “managing” your anger. We work to heal the root cause of your anger. We’ll help you develop compassion for the pain in yourself that is at the core of your anger problem. Once you heal your pain, you will be more understanding and compassionate with others. You’ll be healthier and happier too.
Beyond Anger Management
I use some of the best therapeutic techniques available today including the latest brain science counseling methods that are proven to heal past pain and trauma that is at the root of destructive anger. For 14 years, I’ve helped women and men heal the root cause of their anger and be happier and more at peace with themselves than they ever could have imagined.
You can count on my track record.
Are You Ready to Finally Resolve Your Anger?
If you resonate with the four points below, you’re likely a strong candidate for entering counseling with me:
- You want the skillful calmness that others have—the sense of control and grace under fire. A lot of good people have struggled with anger that felt unmanageable, but I’ve seen so many of those same people heal—and so can you!
- You’ve tried many times to get your anger under control, but you just don’t know how to on your own. So, you’re realizing that it’s time to get some guidance, and you want the help of a seasoned and compassionate counselor.
- You sense or recognize that at the core of your anger there is some unresolved pain or hurt, and you want to stop your past from harming your future. Therefore, you welcome learning, personal growth, and change—and you want to be the best version of yourself that you can be.
- You no longer want to “tuck things away” anymore. Deep down, you know it’s not other people who are really the cause of your anger. You may come from a family where someone was “a yeller.” You may have been dealing with stress or pressure for too long. Or maybe you grew up with a lot of loneliness, fear, or pain surrounded by people who couldn’t teach you emotional regulation skills. Whatever the cause, these are things that you want to heal.
In order to stop your anger and rage, you must be willing to heal and resolve that old pain and hurt. Even if it’s a bit uncomfortable to look at the roots of your anger management issues, a compassionate therapist can help you resolve those negative patterns and stop your “anger habit” once and for all.
So, if you are ready to make the commitment to yourself and to those you care about—if you are ready to discover a better life for yourself and your loved ones, I want to help. Please schedule your 90-minute intake session below to talk more about your unique situation.
