About
I believe that healing starts with being truly seen, so I work to build a space where you can explore who you are without pressure or judgment.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 2 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through life’s challenges. I help clients navigate stress, relationships, and personal growth by creating a warm, collaborative space where they feel seen and supported. My approach is tailored to each person’s unique needs, focusing on building strengths, developing coping skills, and fostering resilience and lasting change.
I earned my Master’s in Counselor Education from Radford University. I use a person-centered and strengths-based approach that combines empathy, support, and practical strategies to help clients overcome barriers and build self-awareness.
It takes courage to begin therapy, and I believe everyone deserves a space to feel heard, understood, and empowered. In our work together, you can expect guidance, authenticity, and a safe space to grow at your own pace.

Yes, there are therapists who help with anger via Anger management therapy. It’s a therapeutic process that an individual goes through to manage their anger and identify its triggers. They’re given clear instructions on how to improve their angry behavior as well as a safe space for opening up about their emotions.
Once an individual’s triggers are identified, anger management therapy focuses on helping the individual process and respond to these emotions in a more positive and productive manner. The anger management therapist will provide coping strategies and ultimately help their client take back control of their anger.
The five keys to mastering anger include identifying triggers, pausing before reacting, calmly expressing emotions, discovering constructive outlets for frustration, and seeking professional assistance if necessary. Acquiring these skills through Anger management therapy empowers individuals to effectively manage and navigate their anger.
The best therapy for anger management often involves cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps individuals identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior related to anger.
Anger management therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Often, Anger management therapy lasts between 4-6 weeks. However, it can last longer, dependent on the individual’s needs.
If you have anger issues, there is nothing to be ashamed of. We all struggle with something, be it anger issues, stress management, a mental illness, relationship issues, or something else entirely. We all have our own things to work on! And you might find that a counselor or therapist can help you achieve the desired results.

If you struggle with anger issues, our anger experts will help you better understand where your anger stems from and assist you with reacting to enraging circumstances in a healthier manner. This might sound like a difficult task now, but your anger management counselor will guide and support you through this process. Reach out today for help.
Anger management counseling aims to help people understand and work through their anger. It’s as simple as that. For example, your Thriveworks counselor can help you understand your triggers, such as:
It’s okay to feel angry, as a result of the above triggers or other triggers. However, the way that you react and express your emotions is what you need to pay attention to. For example, if you react to maddening circumstances by inciting violence or picking fights with other people, you are not responding to your anger in a healthy way. While you shouldn’t internalize this anger, you should find a way to process your emotions and express them in a better way. We know it’s easier said than done, that’s why Thriveworks Counseling in Fairfield offers anger management counseling.
Anger management counseling will give you a clear direction for better understanding and expressing your anger. Your counselor will be sure to provide you with the safe, comfortable space that you need to open up about your feelings and make progress in therapy. Additionally, they will evaluate your angry tendencies to then provide you with examples of more productive responses to anger.
Anger management counseling can incorporate different therapeutic techniques into your treatment plan, which will work together to help you develop healthier ways for dealing with your anger. These techniques can include:
Anger is a powerful and sometimes scary emotion. It can frighten those who experience it as well as those on the receiving end of the anger.
