About anger therapy for people in Irvine

Everyone listed on this page holds a licence to practise in California and works online. That matters more than it sounds: a licence is issued by the state, not by a city, so a therapist is available to anyone in California regardless of how far away they are. Someone in Irvine can work with a therapist whose books would otherwise be out of reach.

885 therapists match this page, all of whom name anger among the areas they work with. Fifteen are shown above. The list changes between pages, so it is worth looking at more than one if none of these feels like a fit.

What to compare

  • Credential. LMFT, LCSW and LPCC are different training routes to the same licensed practice. None outranks the others; they shape emphasis rather than quality.
  • Years in practice. Shown for every therapist here. More experience is not automatically better, but it is a fair proxy for how much of a given problem someone has seen.
  • What else they work with. A therapist whose other focus areas overlap with your situation is usually a better starting point than one whose listed areas stop at the single thing you searched for.
  • Approach. CBT, psychodynamic, solution-focused and the rest describe how sessions tend to run. If you have tried therapy before and it did not suit you, changing approach is often more useful than changing therapist.
  • Language. Shown where a therapist offers sessions in more than English.

How online sessions work

Sessions run by video or by messaging, arranged through our partner platform rather than booked directly with the therapist. There is no travel and no waiting room, which for most people is the difference between starting and not starting. Pricing is set by the platform and shown before you commit.

Therapy in Irvine

Irvine has a population of about 307,670. Local in-person availability varies and waiting lists are common, which is part of why state-wide online practice has grown. Nothing on this page depends on a therapist being near you.

Common questions

How do I know if a therapist on this list has experience specifically with anger issues?

Check each profile for mentions of anger, aggression, emotion regulation, or related interventions like cognitive behavioral therapy, DBT skills, or anger management programs. Look for descriptions of client populations they work with, such as adults, couples, or people with impulsive reactions. If it’s not clear, use the contact options to ask about their experience and typical approaches to anger.

Can I see a therapist listed here if I live in Irvine but want only online sessions?

Yes. A California licence permits practice across the state, so being in Irvine is not a barrier to online care. Make sure the clinician explicitly offers remote sessions and confirm session formats and any technical requirements before you start. Ask about session length and whether they use video, phone, or messaging.

What should I compare when choosing a therapist for anger rather than for anxiety or depression?

Focus on whether the therapist names anger-specific methods, such as anger management, impulse control, or emotion-regulation skills. Compare their experience with triggers like relationship conflicts or workplace stress. Look at whether they include practical strategies, safety planning when anger feels out of control, and how they measure progress for anger-related goals.
