Barbara Jaurequi Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT, MAC
Most people don't realize that anger is an addiction. It follows a predictable pattern that starts with the angry person being calm (which usually follows an angry outburst). The next stage is the tension mounting period which leads to another angry outburst. Then follows a period of remorse and the cycle repeats. Un-managed anger gets worse over time. Behavioral counseling will help you get your angry impulses under control. We will work to find healthier coping tools to manage your anger and get to the root of what typically triggers the anger cycle.

Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Behind depression is rage and behind the rage is separation anxiety. Entire societies have been build on the premise that anger is bad and has to be suppressed so its not uncommon that individuals also struggle with uncontrolled anger. When we learn to engage anger as an emotion with its rightful place in our life, and learn to express it in healthy ways that are not relationally destructive, we are then able to let go of old patterns of expressing anger that have been so damaging. We want you to know with the development of relational intelligence, you too can take control of your anger and experience positive growth in your relationships.

Dr. Fernando Castrillon
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Anger and aggression are "normal" parts of our psychic life, but they can also take on a life of their own that is injurious to our lives and those around us. Getting to the source of your anger and aggression, and having it speak fully, will allow you to not be subject to the uncontrollable rage that might be weighing you down.

Samer Fawaz
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT #149147
Anger can cause you, and those you are close with high levels of stress and anxiety. Anger is often masking deeper feelings we are grappling with like sadness, unworthiness, feeling disregarded etc. There is a valid reason for your anger— together we will work to understand the root of where your anger comes from and how it developed. From there we can begin implementing tools to help you regulate your anger so that you can be a more centered version of yourself.

Mona Saba Valeriano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Explosive or chronically suppressed anger often signals unprocessed rage rooted in early relational trauma. Rather than treating anger as the problem, I see it as important emotional data—something to approach safely and directly in therapy, so it no longer has to be displaced or expressed in destructive ways.
Drawing from Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP), I use an experiential, somatic-focused approach to help clients safely access and process underlying feelings. Together, we explore whether anger needs fuller expression and integration, or whether it is defending against other unconscious emotions such as grief or guilt.

Anne M. Dennis LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
If anger has become unmanageable and affecting relationships and your own health, consider treatment. When we think about Anger, it is often said every "big behavior" comes from an unmet need. Not being heard/seen, misunderstood, feelings of hurt both past and present. If you are ready to get anger under control, consider therapy as a way to learn about the roots of the anger and learn effective coping strategies to appropriately express needs and feelings and decrease angry outbursts.

Melanie Goetz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
My approach to working with anger considers the emotions that are underneath, driving the anger out. I like to hear stories of how you were shown to work through difficulties, what emotions you were taught we acceptable, and when you learned that fight energy was the surest way to stay safe in a scary world. We'll practice different grounding skills and have opportunities for nurturing the Parts inside of you that are hiding, wounded, and reactive.

Yesenia Torres
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I specialize in working with individuals who struggle with anger, irritability, or difficulty managing emotional reactions. My approach focuses on helping clients understand the underlying triggers of anger—often rooted in unresolved stress, past experiences, or unmet needs—and how it impacts their relationships, decision-making, and overall well-being.
Through our work, clients develop greater emotional awareness, learn to recognize early signs of escalation, and build practical tools to respond more effectively. The goal is not to suppress anger, but to gain control, communicate more clearly, and navigate conflict in healthier, more constructive ways.

Santa Monica combines proximity to the entertainment industry with a strong wellness culture, creating demand for therapists who specialize in performance anxiety, the pressures of creative and entertainment careers, identity, and the particular stresses of living adjacent to fame and public scrutiny. The area's affluent demographic and beach lifestyle coexist with significant rates of anxiety, eating concerns, and relationship distress, and the Westside has a notably high density of experienced therapists relative to its size. Providence Saint John's Health Center and UCLA Health provide institutional mental health anchors for the Westside community. Many Santa Monica therapists also serve clients from Malibu, Pacific Palisades, and the broader Westside corridor.
