Meet Jada!
Hi, I’m Jada LaBounty, a therapist in Madison who helps individuals manage emotions, regulate mood, and feel more in control of their reactions. I understand how exhausting it can be when anger, anxiety, or low mood shows up too intensely, or when guilt and self-criticism follow an outburst. I know how anger can affect your thoughts, relationships, and the way you see yourself—and I want you to know change is possible.
In therapy, I can help you uncover the patterns and triggers that fuel your emotions, learn practical tools to pause and respond differently, and build strategies that give you more control over your emotions. Together, we’ll focus on strengthening your ability to communicate calmly, manage stress effectively, and feel more grounded in challenging situations—so your emotions no longer control you.
You deserve to feel steady in your responses, connected in your relationships, and confident in your ability to handle life’s challenges with clarity and calm.
Your Healing Journey
Healing from intense emotions is a personal journey, and it looks different for everyone. Together, we’ll explore your triggers, build coping skills, and create space for calm, resilience, and emotional balance.
You’ll gain tools to:
Pause and Respond, Not React: Learn strategies to slow down in the moment and choose healthier ways to handle anger, anxiety, or sadness.
Release Built-Up Tension: Reduce physical and emotional stress, helping your mind and body feel grounded.
Strengthen Relationships: Communicate effectively, set boundaries, and rebuild trust with loved ones.
Build Self-Understanding and Compassion: Understand the roots of your emotions and replace self-criticism with insight and kindness.
This isn’t about suppressing emotions or “never feeling angry or sad.” It’s about creating lasting changes that help you understand, manage, and respond to emotions in ways that allow for peace, stability, and connection.
