Anger Management
Quinn Knox
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, Trauma-Informed
Anger is a great signal that a person's needs are unmet. As someone who has personal and professional experience with anger, eliminating anger isn't the goal, rather identifying triggers and being able to regulate anger in healthy ways is my approach to supporting those dealing with this issue.

S. Abigail McCarrel : Welcome Home Family Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, DCSW
When you work with me as your family therapist, you will come to understand that calm may not be the goal. Instead, we will be working towards regulation. Anger is often the result of low stress tolerance. Certain folks are just more easily pulled into dysregulation than others and this is not their fault. I like to say, "blame it on the brain." There are many ways to grow one's window of tolerance outside the heat of the moment. Together, we will be using movements, mindfulness, grounding, self-compassion and problem-solving tools to help individuals in families be more connected to themselves as well as each other.

Anna Ponder (Online/Virtual Therapy)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Anger is a human emotion with often a justifiable cause - expectation disappointment, protection of loved ones, and so on - and the key is to learn adaptive ways of communicating and having angry thoughts and emotions without crossing certain boundaries. I want to help you focus on replacing aggressive, unhealthy communication with calm, assertive communication. I want to help you increase distress tolerance and experience anger without letting it "hook" you.

Lisa Andresen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
You have the right to get angry, especially if you're being mistreated, your boundaries are violated, or your needs are not being met. Is the way you're expressing your frustrations adding shame and guilt into the equation, though? Do you find yourself often irritable, agitated in your relationships, annoyed with co-workers / co-founders, and arguing without getting your point across?
Our Productive Anger Management Group could empower you to self-regulate, understand your needs, and learn how to communicate more effectively. We meet on Wednesday evenings 5:30p-7pm to practice evidence-based CBT strategies, DBT skills, and ACT experiential exercises.
