Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you feel on edge, anxious, irritable, or just can't relax, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats anxiety and related conditions typically using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and exposure therapies. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

Louis Miller III, Oak Brook Counseling and Wellness
Counselor/Therapist, Attaining CMHC degree, MBK Adler University Member
help clients understand anger as a meaningful emotional signal rather than something to suppress or fear. Our work focuses on identifying triggers, strengthening emotional regulation, and developing healthier ways to express needs, boundaries, and frustration without shame or loss of control. Therapy is collaborative and practical, supporting clients in responding thoughtfully and in being able to "zoom out" rather than reacting impulsively in situations where anger is most present.

Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In my practice, I help patients with anger management issues by utilizing a comprehensive and personalized approach tailored to their unique needs. I begin with a thorough assessment to understand the root causes of their anger and its impact on their lives. Education is provided to help patients recognize the triggers and physiological signs of anger. Therapies such as Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) are employed to address negative thought patterns and develop healthier responses to anger-inducing situations. Mindfulness and relaxation techniques are taught to enhance self-awareness and emotional regulation. I also offer strategies for effective communication and conflict resolution to help patients express their feelings constructively. Ongoing support and follow-up ensure continuous progress and adjustment of therapeutic strategies. This comprehensive approach aims to empower patients to manage their anger effectively, improve their relationships, and lead more balanced lives.

If you want to take control of your emotions, including anger management, we can work together to accomplish that goal. You are prepared to get to the bottom of your reactions, to honestly take the risk of understanding 'why' and to learn and relearn your habits that have been happening for soooo long that it feels automatic...then call me - so we can work together to make things better.

Danielle Keys at Headway
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, M.S.ED, LCPC
I prefer to call anger management "Emotion Management". Emotions are the driving force behind behavior, therefore it is important to know how you experience all of your emotions and how they influence your actions. for this, I utilize integrative approaches to address contributing factors to anger such as family history, trauma, sudden life transitions, etc. We will use CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness practices to build healthy connection with your emotions.

Paul Sather
Psychologist, PhD
I work on emotional management in general and anger management in particular. Managing anger is challenging in part because anger has a lot of energy in it. It takes skill and practice to direct that energy in a way that is productive rather than destructive.

Chris Scarberry
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I do evidenced-based work informed by CBT and DBT modalities. As mental health professionals, we find that many of the difficulties people face with managing anger have to do with the relationship between thoughts/feelings and behavior. It is necessary to look at what other emotions anger masks, and work on becoming more mindful of one's physical evidence of becoming angry so that different choices can be made sooner once one becomes visibly angry. Often, I meet with people who feel out of control in their lives and become angry when they are also hurt by the way they are treated by others. Sometimes, people were not allowed to sit with or express their feelings as a child and this leads to their not knowing what they are feeling at all, or they try to numb anger with substances or other compulsive behavior. When I work with clients on anger management, I always have them start with tracking their angry thoughts and branch out from here since that tells us what their underlying beliefs and fears are, whether the anger is directed inward or outward, and what purpose allowing themselves to be socially inappropriate with the anger may serve in accomplishing often unconscious goals or social outcomes.

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.

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Anger can be a difficult emotion for many people - you may have received messages throughout your life about what is or isn't "okay" to feel, or you may feel at a loss of how to navigate the strong waves of anger when it hits. We work on understanding the role and function of anger, while working to reshape any messages that may be keeping you stuck. Building comfort and flexibility with anger is all about building our awareness of our cues; reshaping our relationship with anger; growing our regulation skills; and practicing how we can let our anger inform how we choose to respond, rather than being driven by the anger itself.
