What's this? Someone is angry! What's going on under this? It could be a Behavioral Addiction to anger; it could be a response to the fear and powerlessness created by early adverse childhood experiences; ands it could even be a defense against the loss of Self/Identity. How about we address those issues? My modality of choice is Image Transformation Therapy and the EMDR Feeling State focus model. I find this model creates actual behavioral and motivational change, not just curbing behavior and gutting it out. I back this up with EMDR trauma work and the Feeling State Addiction Protocol.

Erik Stenglein
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Specialties include domestic violence support, intimate partner violence, relationship trauma, safety planning, emotional recovery, and trauma-informed care for adults.
I work with adults 18+ who have experienced domestic or intimate partner violence. Many clients come to therapy feeling unsafe, isolated, or uncertain about how to navigate relationships and protect themselves. My approach is compassionate, trauma-informed, and empowering, helping clients process the impact of abuse, build emotional resilience, and develop practical strategies for safety and self-advocacy. Therapy is a confidential and supportive space to regain a sense of control, heal from trauma, and rebuild trust in yourself and your relationships.
