About anger therapy for people in Pasadena
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 Pasadena 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 Pasadena
Pasadena has a population of about 138,699. 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 can help with anger rather than just general stress?
Look for therapists who list anger, anger management, or related issues like impulse control or aggression in their specialties. Check descriptions for specific approaches such as CBT, DBT, or anger-focused therapy. Read about any experience with triggers, conflict, or family dynamics to see if their focus matches your needs.
Can I work on anger issues in a few sessions or is this usually longer-term?
The length of work on anger varies by individual and the goals you set with a therapist. Some people seek short-term skills-based work for managing outbursts, while others pursue longer-term therapy to address underlying patterns. Look for therapists who describe whether they offer skill-building, brief interventions, or deeper, ongoing psychotherapy.
What should I ask during a first session if anger is my main concern?
Ask about the therapist’s experience with anger and the approaches they use. Ask how they assess triggers and measure progress, and whether they offer skills training such as emotion regulation, communication, or relapse prevention. Also ask how they handle crisis moments and whether they include homework or practice between sessions.
