Anger Issues

Blowing up or losing your cool once in a while doesn’t necessarily mean you have an anger issue. But if you find yourself experiencing long-term feelings of anger or rage, which may also include aggressive, violent or self-destructive behaviors, you may be facing an anger management issue. Those experiencing anger issues may also have physical symptoms including high blood pressure, headaches, or fatigue. Whether your anger issue is caused by stress, genetics, hormones or your current environment, you don’t have to figure it out alone. Contact one of our specialists today.

Anger is a powerful emotion that pulls us in different directions. Through Intense Short Term Dynamic Psychotherapy interventions, we will look at exploring the anger impulses as opposed to managing it and getting the anger to go away.

Angry people are often misunderstood. I know the regret and shame that can come after losing your temper, yet again. While anger can bring out the worst parts of us that we usually like to keep hidden, it can also feel good to know that it keeps people from taking advantage or messing with us. Let's try to tame that anger so it feels like you're more in control of it, rather than the other way around.

— Sayuri (Julie) Heinl, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in Arlington, VA
 

I help individuals understand the root causes of their anger and develop healthier ways to manage emotions. My approach combines evidence-based techniques, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), with mindfulness practices to help you regain control and improve relationships. Together, we work on building self-awareness, effective communication skills, and strategies to handle triggers in a constructive manner.

— Melvin George, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner in boynton beach, FL

Anger is a normal human emotion that warns us that something is being done to us that is threatening, unjust, or gets in the way of getting our needs met. Of course, we can become angry at ourselves for a variety of reasons. Anger by nature is not a “problem” nor does it always require “anger management.” Unfortunately, for many people, anger can become a problem . I help people for whom anger has become a problem through developing behavioral and emotional self-awareness, understanding about triggers and underlying causes, and effective coping skills (aka “tools”) that can help them manage their anger reactions in more constructive ways.

— Dr. Robert Nemerovski, Psy.D., Clinical Psychologist in San Rafael, CA

"I'm just a soul whose intentions are good Oh lord, please don't let me be misunderstood." ― The Animals, 1965 “Anger is a valid emotion. It's only bad when it takes control and makes you do things you don't want to do.” ― Ellen Hopkins, Fallout “When angry, count four. When very angry, swear.” ― Mark Twain

— Stephanie (Vee) Van Fossen, Counselor in Austin, TX

I created an anger management program when I was working for the DoD and helping Soldiers with domestic abuse, PTSD, and anger control issues. You have to be willing to admit that you have a problem before you can start working on the problem. I am direct and will confront you and will hold you accountable. I don't shy away, get my feelings hurt, and I don't give up on my clients. I don't have a problem when my client's curse or use foul language. Its okay to just tell it like it is!
