On the surface it looks like anger or constant irritation, but beneath the turbulent current of destructive behaviors are emotions like sadness and grief, pain, sorrow and fear. Anger is much more preferable if a lot of your life you have felt powerless or helpless. As you might be figuring out, the power of intense, uncontrollable anger only leads to self-destruction and can deeply hurts others. Self-destruction can look a lot like being stuck, resistance to change even when miserable, using substances, or being undisciplined. It can feel lonely. There is no time like today to face the underlying issues of your anger. When you begin to understand how you became so disempowered, so stuck, you will become more aware of your options for change. Today is a good day for change to begin! Make 2022 your year of transformation. We are trauma-informed therapist which means we don't ask "what's wrong with you?" rather we ask, "what happened to you?" We use cognitive behavioral therapies to help clients resolve underlying issues and cultivate renewed passion for life, for themselves, and for others. I, Rayne Ventimiglia, LCSW-S, owner of Let It Rain Psychotherapy, established my practice in 2016 after working for several years with children/teens, families, individuals and couples who struggled with trauma related issues. I received yearly training and am certified in DBT, a modality of therapy that can help with emotion regulation, distress tolerance, relationship skills, and mindfulness. What is most important to me is that you have a safe, supportive place to work through unresolved issues with an experienced therapist who genuinely wishes to see you heal and recover.
