Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anger is often a signal of something deeper—frustration, hurt, fear, or feeling misunderstood. Rather than simply trying to suppress anger, I help individuals understand where it comes from, how it builds, and how it is expressed. Through this work, clients develop greater awareness, emotional regulation, and more effective ways of communicating and responding in difficult moments.

Melissa Berschauer
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Anger is a completely normal emotion, but when it starts blowing up your relationships, costing you at work, or making you feel out of control, it’s usually masking a lot of deeper stress. We will work together to get under the hood of those explosive moments, identifying your physical triggers before you hit a boiling point. I'll help you build practical, real-time tools to cool down the nervous system storm so you can choose how to respond rather than just reacting.

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.

John Fry
Psychologist, Ph.D.
You can learn to manage your anger better by addressing three different areas--learning how to self-calm better, learning how to not exagerate the upset in your mind, and useful strategies to use in handling situations.

Dr. Mitch Keil, PsyD
Psychologist, Keil Psych Group
Anger is rarely the whole story. Often, just beneath it, we find hurt, fear, shame, vulnerability, or a very real experience of being wronged. Anger can make us feel powerful when something underneath feels much harder to tolerate.
My approach to anger management therapy isn't about simply teaching you to suppress anger or “calm down.” We want to understand it. Using psychodynamic therapy alongside mindfulness, emotional regulation skills, and more effective communication, we look closely at what triggers your anger, what happens in the moments just before it, and the patterns that keep repeating in your relationships.
Anger itself isn't the enemy. In fact, it can contain incredibly useful information about your needs, boundaries, and relationships. The goal is to help you experience and express anger without allowing it to damage the people and things that matter to you—to make anger a servant rather than a master.

Scheyden Herold
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #137593, MS
If you are "an angry guy/person", I don't believe you are a bad human being. Anger is an emotion that makes a lot of sense normally, and it comes from somewhere. Collaboratively, let's explore the roots of anger and figure out how we can develop strategies to not only cope, but release anger in a way that is healthier.

Irvine is one of the wealthiest and most planned cities in the United States — anchored by UC Irvine and home to the regional headquarters of dozens of major corporations — with a therapy community shaped by the intersection of high-achievement academic culture, tech and finance sector burnout, and a large East Asian population that brings distinct cultural dimensions to help-seeking and mental health. The city's majority-minority population — with Chinese, Korean, Indian, and Iranian communities among the most prominent — drives strong demand for multilingual therapists who can work across multiple cultural frameworks. Hoag Hospital and the UCI Health system provide institutional mental health resources, with a well-established private practice community serving Irvine's planned residential villages. UCI's clinical psychology doctoral program contributes new clinicians to the broader Orange County ecosystem.
