SONYA L ALLEN
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CCTP
Anger can feel like it is coming out of nowhere. Many feel that they go from 0-60 without warning. Assistance in slowing things down can be helpful in strengthening insight into why an individual is triggered and how them might better respond to normal life stressors.

Hannah Hayden with Sapphire Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Often, anger is not the problem, but a signal that something underneath needs attention. Whether anger shows up as irritability, explosive reactions, resentment, or difficulty letting things go, therapy can help you understand its roots and develop healthier ways to respond. We help clients build emotional awareness, improve communication, and learn practical strategies for managing intense emotions without sacrificing their relationships or well-being.

Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you’ve ever found yourself reacting in anger and then thinking, “Why did I do that… that’s not who I want to be,” you’re not alone. You may feel frustrated with how quickly things escalate, or discouraged that despite your best intentions, the same patterns keep repeating—at home, at work, or in your relationships.
I help clients understand and change the patterns that drive anger—not just manage it on the surface. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we identify the thoughts that fuel emotional escalation and replace them with more balanced, effective ways of thinking. With clinical hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), and NLP, we work at a deeper level to shift automatic reactions so you can respond with greater calm and control. I also incorporate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you stay grounded and act in alignment with your values, even in challenging moments.
What’s often missing isn’t awareness—you likely already know when your anger is a problem. What’s missing is a reliable way to interrupt the reaction in real time and choose a different response. Without that, anger continues to feel automatic, and the cycle repeats.
The fact that you’re reading this means you’re already ready for something different. If you’re willing to learn a new way of responding, I can help you develop the tools to stay in control, communicate more effectively, and feel confident in how you handle even the most difficult situations.

Kaylie Groenhout
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC, EMDRIA Certified Therapist
Anger is often a misunderstood guardian, acting as a fire that protects much deeper, more vulnerable hurts. In our work together, we look closely at the roots of your anger management concerns to understand what your system is trying to protect. By combining relational insight with tools to settle the nervous system, we help you trade reactive outbursts for calm, clear communication.

Elisha S Lee
Counselor/Therapist, NCCA CTCC CPC
Our anger management counseling focuses on helping individuals recognize the signs of anger and develop effective strategies to cope with and express this powerful emotion constructively. Understanding that anger can significantly impact relationships, work life, and overall well-being, we provide a supportive environment where clients can explore the roots of their anger and learn to manage its expression healthily.
Tailored Strategies for Managing Anger
* Self-awareness Techniques: Through the use of techniques like mindfulness and self-reflection, we guide individuals in identifying the triggers and situational factors that lead to anger. Enhanced self-awareness makes it possible to anticipate and prepare for potentially infuriating situations.
* Cognitive-behavioral Therapy (CBT): A core component of our approach involves cognitive-behavioral therapy, which enables individuals to understand the thought processes that underpin anger and to develop healthier thinking patterns. By altering these thoughts, clients can change their emotional responses and behavioral outcomes.
* Communication Skills Training: As poor communication often exacerbates anger issues, we emphasize enhancing interpersonal skills. This includes learning assertive communication techniques that enable individuals to express their needs and emotions clearly and respectfully, without falling back on aggressive or passive-aggressive behaviors.
* Stress Reduction Techniques: Clients are equipped with techniques to reduce stress, such as deep breathing exercises, physical activity, or relaxation strategies. By lowering overall stress levels, individuals can better control their emotional responses, including anger.
* Problem-solving Skills: We work to strengthen problem-solving skills to help clients address the issues that trigger their anger in more effective ways. This includes focusing on identifying solutions rather than dwelling on problems.
* Group Therapy Sessions: For some, understanding and observing that others face similar challenges with anger can be incredibly reassuring and enlightening. Group sessions provide a forum for sharing experiences and strategies, further aiding the learning process.
Goals of Anger Management Therapy
Our objective is to empower individuals not just to manage their anger, but to transform it into a positive force that drives change rather than destruction. By the end of therapy, clients are better equipped to handle life’s frustrations without lashing out, leading to improved relationships, greater personal satisfaction, and a more balanced life.
If anger is affecting your life and relationships, reach out to us. Together, we can explore the root causes of your anger and provide you with the tools to manage it effectively.

Gail Eaves
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, NCC, LPC
Anger management is not the absence of disturbing emotions; rather, it is controlling impulsive aggressive anger outbursts. Learning anger management strategies is a worthwhile process. I will educate you how to use techniques to control anger related flare-ups, by helping you to recognize signs of anger and how to channel anger emotions toward a positive anger management outcome.

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.

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.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
While there are often mental components to anger you'll want to address with a talk therapist, there's also a physical component that we can work on using somatic approaches:
Out of control anger is often your nervous system's "fight" response kicking in so intensely that it's hard to keep your cool. Anger serves an important purpose, but we want to know that we can still stay connected to our best selves even while we are angry.
We can use body-focused techniques to be able to recognize when anger is about to kick in, and to teach your body new ways of responding to that anger. For example, you may find yourself saying to me "I noticed I was getting hot and agitated, so I excused myself for a couple minutes."
You may find yourself able to focus your energy much more quickly than you used to, to come back focused and goal oriented. You may still feel 'mad' but it may be anger that is working for you, in alignment with your values.

Alton Wampler
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
From an IFS perspective, anger often comes from parts trying to protect you from hurt, injustice, or fear of being overlooked. By noticing and listening to these angry parts without judgment, you can understand the underlying emotions driving their intensity. When your Self leads, these parts can express themselves safely, allowing you to respond with clarity rather than reactive aggression.

I had one client early in my practice who came to me for one issue but after talking it appeared that the real issue was tremendous anger that had been building for decades and was affecting every aspect of her life, weighing her down. We did 2 sessions around that and she was so completely relieved of her anger, so lightened, that she was amazed.
