Len Ramsay
Registered Psychotherapist, Gestalt Therapist , M.B.A.
Anger is appropriate sometimes - just not as often as it is expressed when you have a thing with anger management. For many, anger is the best defense against pain, sorrow, emptiness and this is what has lead some writers to describe inappropriate aggression as covert depression. Getting a robust experiential handle on all of this can be very rewarding.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, J.D.
When patients find themselves dealing with family or work situations where anger is causing serious harm and fear, discussion with patients about specific triggers, possible developmental history issues, and techniques to reduce anger reactions, talking to a therapist can be very healing.

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.
