Counselor/Therapist, Attaining CMHC degree, MBK Adler University Member
help clients understand anger as a meaningful emotional signal rather than something to suppress or fear. Our work focuses on identifying triggers, strengthening emotional regulation, and developing healthier ways to express needs, boundaries, and frustration without shame or loss of control. Therapy is collaborative and practical, supporting clients in responding thoughtfully and in being able to "zoom out" rather than reacting impulsively in situations where anger is most present.

Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
If you are having difficulties with anger management, I can help! We all experience angry feelings and it is a normal and healthy to have these feelings. Anger management is not simply about some techniques such as deep breathing, or going for a walk. These techniques can be helpful, but we will also look for deeper understand things that trigger your anger. Doing so will provide opportunity to address your anger and possibly heal past wounds. These past wounds can bubble up and take control in powerful ways in attempt to be heard / understood. On top of all this, we can find constructive ways to express our anger that will make us more likely to be heard and our feelings respected.

Anger itself is not inherently a destructive force. If understood and accepted, people can work through their discontent in ways that help them feel appreciated even when upset.

Andrew McKenzie, Psy.D.

Anger is often misunderstood. Rather than seeing it as the problem, we'll become curious about what lies beneath it—whether that's hurt, fear, shame, disappointment, or unmet needs. By understanding the purpose anger has been serving, we can begin developing more flexible and effective ways of responding in difficult moments. Therapy isn't about getting rid of anger; it's about learning to use it wisely instead of letting it take over.

Subconscious Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, C.Ht.
Anger is a natural emotion, but when it becomes reactive or overwhelming, it can impact relationships and daily life. Hypnotherapy helps address the subconscious triggers behind anger, supporting calmer responses and better emotional regulation. Using techniques like visualization and desensitization, sessions focus on reducing stress reactivity and building long-term emotional resilience.

Jason Herr
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I have worked with individuals in both voluntary and court-ordered anger management treatment. I support those whose anger affects relationships, work, and overall emotional well-being. Drawing on extensive clinical experience providing anger management in community mental health and private practice settings—including facilitating court-ordered and voluntary anger management groups—I incorporate biological and neurological education to help clients understand how anger develops in the brain and nervous system.
Anger is a natural emotional response that often builds from underlying stress, frustration, fear, or feeling unheard or out of control. When the nervous system becomes easily activated, reactions can become quicker and more intense, making it difficult to pause, think clearly, and respond effectively. Together, we explore the emotional and physiological triggers that contribute to anger while building awareness of how quickly the body can shift into a reactive state.
I teach practical skills to regulate the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, increase impulse control, and improve communication. Clients learn how to recognize early signs of escalation, express needs more effectively, and respond rather than react. My approach is direct, supportive, and nonjudgmental, helping individuals develop greater emotional control, accountability, and more stable, respectful relationships.
