Andrew McKenzie, Psy.D.
Psychologist
Anger is often misunderstood. Rather than seeing it as the problem, we'll become curious about what lies beneath it—whether that's hurt, fear, shame, disappointment, or unmet needs. By understanding the purpose anger has been serving, we can begin developing more flexible and effective ways of responding in difficult moments. Therapy isn't about getting rid of anger; it's about learning to use it wisely instead of letting it take over.

Michael Losoff
Psychologist, PhD
Michael views anger as a powerful signal that often masks deeper vulnerabilities like hurt or fear, focusing on understanding its origins to foster genuine emotional regulation.
Anger is frequently an "iceberg emotion," a visible reaction that protects more vulnerable feelings like grief, fear, or a sense of injustice. Drawing on over 35 years of experience, Michael helps clients move beyond simple impulse control to understand the relational and developmental roots of their frustration. By exploring the underlying triggers and the "unconscious scripts" that fuel outbursts, he assists individuals in transforming reactive anger into assertive, constructive communication. This approach doesn't just suppress the flame; it addresses the fuel, leading to more balanced relationships and a greater sense of internal calm.

Anger Mgmt
Dr. Monika Sharma
Psychologist, PsyD
Anger attempts to protect us when something feels threatening or unjust. It can be extremely constructive when we recognize it and are thoughtful with it...effectively communicating our needs, fostering better understanding in our relationships, recognizing imbalances of power, and bringing about change. But can also be destructive when we don't understand what the anger is trying to protect, the degree to which the threat is real, and how to effectively influencing change while protecting the people and things important to us.
I will help you explore your anger without judgment to help you better understand the needs, values, and vulnerabilities that underly the invitation for anger. I will also teach you strategies to slow down your reactivity and learn to be intentional with your responses, instead.
I will teach you how to be curious about your uncomfortable feelings such as anger, anxiety, fear, sadness, loneliness, and overwhelm. This involves learning to build tolerance for uncomfortable feelings because they won't actually hurt us; approach these feelings without judgment; poke at them and examine them and see what lies within them; and then decide how we want to use these feelings as a compass to guide us toward those things that truly matter. You will feel empowered to be the master of your feelings, not a puppet to them.

Nefertiti Nowell
Therapist, Dr.
Seeking help is a powerful step to improving your quality of life. Talking to someone about whatever your concerns are is something that almost anyone can benefit from, but many people are afraid to reach out. If you are considering therapy or coaching, I applaud you, and I really do want to help you find what you need to feel POWERFUL and help you develop the tools to have peace in your life.
I enjoy working with diverse clients, and have treated patients on the inpatient as well as outpatient basis. I began providing therapy in 1996, and have worked full time in several local hospitals before deciding to work full time in outpatient private practice. Though I work with many populations, I enjoy helping individuals with issues of trauma as well as working with couples. I work with all age ranges and have helped clients with a range of diagnosis. I use a variety of techniques, including but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR. I am also a Certified Hypnotist and a trained mediator.
