Ben Livesay
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Uncontrolled anger is a tremendous barrier to peace and happiness. It causes legal and family problems, and undermines everything that you try to accomplish in your life. And it frequently seems to come from nowhere and strike like a tsunami, inflicting pain on those who deserve it the least. The good news is that anger, like other strong emotions, does not arise in a vacuum, and can be evaluated, processed, and redirected. Schedule with me today, to start looking at the thoughts and beliefs that lead to emotional volatility, and to learn better ways to experience life.

Devon Davasher
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CCM, CFSW, Master ART Practitioner
I help adults understand the deeper emotions, stress, and relationship patterns that can show up as anger, irritability, or feeling out of control. Therapy focuses on identifying triggers, building healthier coping tools, improving communication, and responding in ways that feel more grounded and intentional.

Anger Mgmt
Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
Anger is a normal emotion we all have. But if you find yourself getting too easily triggered or expressing it in a harmful way, then it's a problem that probably affects your overall quality of life and health. I approach anger management in a non-judgmental way and teach you how to challenge the thoughts that are upsetting you and teach you how to calm your body. Without these two key skills, managing emotions is challenging.

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.

Dorothy Brown
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Anger Management begins in thought changing and impulse control. Built up anger does not serve the individual. I encourage people to explore why they are angry and learn how to suffer less with their anger.
