About anger therapy for people in Torrance
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 Torrance 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 Torrance
Torrance has a population of about 147,067. 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 who works with anger is right for my situation?
Look for clinicians who list anger specifically among their specialties and describe the kinds of anger issues they treat, such as chronic irritability, explosive episodes, or anger linked to trauma. Compare their stated approaches—CBT, DBT, anger management groups, or trauma-informed care—and any notes about working with adults, couples, or parents.
Can online therapy help reduce frequent outbursts or workplace aggression?
Online therapy can offer skills and strategies for managing anger, improving emotional regulation, and addressing triggers that affect work or relationships. Review each profile for experience with workplace-related anger or occupational stress, and choose someone who lists relevant techniques like stress management, communication skills, or cognitive restructuring.
What should I ask during an initial call when I need help with anger issues?
Ask about their experience treating your specific anger pattern, approaches they use, how they measure progress, and what a typical session looks like. You can also ask whether they assign practice between sessions, how they address safety if anger becomes risky, and what outcomes previous clients commonly report.
