I draw on empathy, insight, and cultural understanding to help clients feel understood, supported, and confident in their mental health journey.
I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with over 9 years of experience providing compassionate, evidence-based care to individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma-related disorders, OCD, bipolar disorder, psychotic disorders, and addiction. I take a collaborative, client-centered approach and work closely with each individual to develop personalized treatment plans that support symptom management, improved daily functioning, and long-term emotional well-being.
I earned my master’s degree from the University of North Dakota and bring a thoughtful, integrative approach to care that may include education, coping strategies, and medication management when appropriate. My work is grounded in empathy, clinical insight, and evidence-based practices, allowing me to tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs and goals.
Seeking mental health support can feel challenging, and I strive to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and supported. Together, we will build practical strategies to help manage symptoms, build resilience, and move toward lasting emotional wellness. I invite you tobegin your journey toward healing and growth.

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.
Anger is a strong feeling of irritation or discontentment. It is a completely normal, powerful, unpleasant emotion that we all have felt at times. It can be caused by an external or internal event. For example, certain events can trigger uncomfortable memories (internal) or a family member may upset you at a gathering (external).
Anger can be unpredictable and characterized by antagonism towards someone or something. It can either give you a way to express negative feelings or motivate you to find solutions, but excessive anger can harm your physical and mental health. If you are dealing with excessive or uncontrollable anger, reach out to Thriveworks Cherry Hill for help.
Anger can result in acts of violence or be damaging to the individual and their relationships. The instinctive way we might respond to anger is by participating in aggressive behavior. Naturally, anger is an adaptive response to threats or attacks and can motivate to us to tap into our flight or fight mode when drastic measures occur. But there are healthy ways of exerting this heavy emotion.
Passive results of anger:
Forms of anger:
Anger management counseling is applied when an individual is unable to control their response in situations. Our counselors are equipped with techniques that can help you express anger in a healthy manner and learn how to control your response. Anger can impact physically and emotionally. Once engaged with flight or fight behavior, adrenaline kicks into high gear and energy hormones, heart rate and blood pressure increases, making it difficult to remain calm.
You can learn how to dodge negative results by engaging in cognitive restructuring and problem solving. Defeat anger by starting with awareness. Once you are aware of what is most likely causing this intense emotion, you can define the primary trigger. You will be able to determine when you often experience it and how to express it properly. Gain control of your temperament, and increase your awareness when anger is likely to rise. Learn how to respond with constructive energy rather than react negatively and avoid triggers.
Our counselors are here for you! Contact us at Thriveworks Cherry Hill Anger Management Counseling today so we can schedule you with a professional who can guide you in productively expressing anger.
