About

As a woman who once struggled to balance authenticity with the pressure to please others, I know firsthand the journey of building confidence and self-esteem. I hope to walk alongside you as you step boldly into the best version of yourself.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 8 years of experience supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. I work with adults facing stress, relationship concerns, and self-esteem challenges, helping them find balance and resilience. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to grow in your personal journey.

I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Valdosta State University. I use a person-centered approach informed by cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed practices. I focus on helping you challenge negative patterns, build confidence, and strengthen emotional well-being.

I believe every client deserves a supportive environment where their story is heard and healing is possible. I will work with you to build lasting resilience and self-love. I am committed to walking alongside you as you move toward greater fulfillment, confidence, and emotional strength.

Common approaches to Anger management therapy

Leaf Seperator

Starting Anger management therapy in Cumming

Can you get a therapist for anger issues?

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.

How does anger management therapy work?

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.

What are the 5 keys to controlling 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.

What is the best therapy for anger management?

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.

Is anger management therapy conducted in person or online?

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.

How many sessions do I need for anger management?

Often, Anger management therapy lasts between 4-6 weeks. However, it can last longer, dependent on the individual’s needs.
