Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
Anger is often treated like the problem—but more often, it’s a signal. For many people, anger is connected to feeling unheard, disrespected, overwhelmed, or pushed past their limits for too long. It can also be shaped by culture—how anger was expressed (or not allowed) in your family, what was modeled for you, and how your identity impacts whether your anger is taken seriously, dismissed, or punished. At Nour Counseling, we don’t pathologize anger or reduce it to “just calm down.” We take it seriously.
We work with you to understand what’s underneath your anger and how it shows up in your body, your thoughts, and your relationships. From there, we build real tools—ways to recognize early cues, regulate your nervous system, communicate more clearly, and set boundaries before things escalate. We also address the patterns that keep you stuck, whether that’s suppression, explosive reactions, or cycles of guilt and shutdown afterward. This is not about controlling yourself to make others comfortable—it’s about helping you respond in ways that feel aligned, effective, and grounded in who you want to be.

Cognitive and Behavioral Therapies
Psychologist, Ed.D., ABPP
Many couples therapists refer the male partners to me to learn to understand, manage and reduce their anger. Through practical and emotional skillls training, individuals learn to be less angry and express their anger in healthy and effective ways leading to less emotional distress, improved health and better relationships. I teach cognitive behavior therapy and rational emotive behavior therapy which can be learned and applied in a relatively short period of time.

Durham is home to Duke University and Duke University Medical Center, one of the leading psychiatric research and treatment centers in the country — an institution that deeply shapes the quality and sophistication of the local therapy community. The Research Triangle's concentration of academics, researchers, and healthcare professionals creates demand for therapists with intellectual depth and experience with high-achievement anxiety, identity work, and the stresses of competitive knowledge-economy careers. Durham also has a vibrant Black community with deep historical roots, and therapists offering culturally affirming care, racial identity work, and intergenerational trauma support are well represented. The city's progressive culture sustains strong demand for LGBTQ+-affirming therapists, and many practitioners integrate social-justice-informed approaches across their work.
