Anger Management therapists in Birmingham, Alabama AL
Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
In my experience if a client experiences outbursts of anger or just feeling angry all the time they probably experienced something in their past that made them feel out of control, powerless, hopeless, or scared. Anger is often a way people protect themselves in an attempt to never feel those things again. But eventually, the anger that used to be a helpful coping skill becomes a problem. I can help you reduce your anger through EMDR therapy which will desensitize those experiences that made you feel out of control and help you process those memories in way that prevents them from being triggered again.

Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
If you are having difficulties with anger management, I can help! We all experience angry feelings and it is a normal and healthy to have these feelings. Anger management is not simply about some techniques such as deep breathing, or going for a walk. These techniques can be helpful, but we will also look for deeper understand things that trigger your anger. Doing so will provide opportunity to address your anger and possibly heal past wounds. These past wounds can bubble up and take control in powerful ways in attempt to be heard / understood. On top of all this, we can find constructive ways to express our anger that will make us more likely to be heard and our feelings respected.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
I have been treating anger symptoms for many years. Therefore, it's an area in which I have particular experience. You and I will examine the component parts of your symptoms such as emotions, behaviors, and thoughts. We’ll then examine how these parts are connected and how they impact each other. I’ll help you create changes to one or more of these parts to achieve your desired symptom relief. My approach tends to be very concrete as I teach specific skills that can be quickly learned.
