Anne Dennis, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
If anger has become unmanageable and affecting relationships and your own health, consider treatment. When we think about Anger, it is often said every "big behavior" comes from an unmet need. Not being heard/seen, misunderstood, feelings of hurt both past and present. If you are ready to get anger under control, consider therapy as a way to learn about the roots of the anger and learn effective coping strategies to appropriately express needs and feelings and decrease angry outbursts.

Emma Esper
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC
I take a cognitive/clinical approach to anger management, in which we will look at the triggers of anger, the cognitive processes behind the appraisal of anger, and the behavioral reaction of anger. Anger is a human emotion and deserves to be given the same care as all of our other emotions.

Bakersfield sits at the southern end of California's San Joaquin Valley and is shaped by its oil industry and agricultural economy — two sectors with distinct occupational cultures that affect how residents approach mental health and help-seeking. The city has a large and long-established Hispanic community, and bilingual Spanish-English therapists serve a critical access role for families where language barriers limit engagement with mainstream mental health services. Kern Medical provides institutional mental health resources alongside a relatively sparse private practice community — Bakersfield has fewer therapists per capita than comparable California cities, making telehealth an important access route. The city's conservative political culture and strong evangelical community mean faith-integrated approaches to therapy are in consistent demand.
