Education
The Wright Institute, Doctorate of Psychology, Clinical Psychology, 2010 — My Doctorate in Clinical Psychology is from The Wright Institute, a program deeply rooted in the practitioner-scholar model with rigorous training in evidence-based therapies including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic approaches, and mindfulness-based interventions. For my doctoral dissertation, I chose to research driving anger and road rage — an early signal of my deep and focused interest in anger as a clinical specialty. That research laid the foundation for nearly two decades of specialized work helping adults understand, manage, and reduce problematic anger in their lives. Since earning my doctorate, I have become a recognized national authority on anger management and road rage, serving as a media consultant and expert source for ABC News, CBS News, NPR, Men's Health, the Huffington Post, and dozens of other outlets. I have helped hundreds of clients — many of them men who had never tried therapy before — learn to tame their anger, communicate more effectively, and regain calm and confidence in their relationships and daily lives. My work with men is a particular focus. I understand the cultural pressures men face around emotional expression, and I've built a practice specifically designed to be a good fit for men who are skeptical of therapy but ready to make real change.
Work HistoryBefore becoming a psychologist, I spent over 15 years in business management and human resources — watching up close how unmanaged anger and stress quietly damaged careers and relationships. That shaped the kind of therapist I became. I earned my doctorate from The Wright Institute in Berkeley and wrote my doctoral dissertation on road rage and driving anger — the beginning of a career-long specialization in anger. I'm a Certified Specialist in Anger Management (CSAM) and an Active Full Member of the National Anger Management Association, and over nearly 20 years in practice I've become a recognized national authority on anger and road rage, consulting for ABC News, CBS News, NPR, Men's Health, and many others. Anxiety is the other area I've invested heavily in — completing Advanced Training in Treating Anxiety Disorders, a Certificate in Advanced Treatment of Social Anxiety, and Advanced CBT training. CBT (essentially, learning to recognize and change the thought patterns that drive how we feel and behave) is at the core of how I work with both anger and anxiety. I've trained and worked across outpatient clinics, residential treatment programs, substance recovery facilities, and college counseling centers, and I later supervised therapists and taught doctoral students at The Wright Institute. That range of experience — combined with my prior career in the real world — is a big part of why I connect especially well with men who are skeptical of therapy but ready to actually do something about what's going on.
