Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed anger management counseling for individuals struggling with anger, emotional reactivity, frustration, irritability, conflict in relationships, and difficulty managing intense emotions. Many people experiencing anger issues feel overwhelmed by recurring triggers, emotional outbursts, relationship tension, or patterns of reacting in ways they later regret. Anger is often connected to deeper emotional pain, unresolved trauma, chronic stress, past experiences, or unmet emotional needs.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to anger management therapy, helping clients understand the underlying causes of anger rather than simply trying to suppress emotions or control behavior on the surface. Together, you will explore emotional triggers, past experiences, relationship dynamics, stress responses, and unresolved trauma that may be contributing to patterns of anger, defensiveness, emotional shutdown, or interpersonal conflict.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-focused counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to help clients process unresolved experiences, reduce emotional reactivity, and develop healthier ways of coping and communicating. Therapy focuses on creating lasting emotional change, improving self-awareness, strengthening relationships, and restoring a greater sense of balance and control.
Many individuals struggling with anger have been told to simply “calm down” or “stop reacting,” yet lasting change often requires deeper healing work. When anger is connected to unresolved trauma, stress, anxiety, shame, or painful life experiences, talk therapy alone may not fully address the root causes. Brad’s approach focuses on identifying and healing the underlying emotional wounds and trigger points that continue to fuel unhealthy patterns and relationship difficulties.
Therapy is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to each client’s individual needs and goals. Clients are provided with a safe, non-judgmental space to openly explore emotions, relationship struggles, communication challenges, and the deeper issues affecting their emotional well-being. Treatment may also include repairing damaged relationships, improving communication, strengthening emotional regulation, and creating healthier interpersonal dynamics at home, work, and in personal relationships.
Healing and change are possible. With the right support, clients can move beyond destructive anger patterns, develop healthier emotional responses, improve relationships, and create a more balanced, peaceful, and fulfilling life.
Virtual counseling and online anger management therapy sessions are available, providing confidential and convenient access to professional trauma-focused therapy from the comfort of home.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
While there are often mental components to anger you'll want to address with a talk therapist, there's also a physical component that we can work on using somatic approaches:
Out of control anger is often your nervous system's "fight" response kicking in so intensely that it's hard to keep your cool. Anger serves an important purpose, but we want to know that we can still stay connected to our best selves even while we are angry.
We can use body-focused techniques to be able to recognize when anger is about to kick in, and to teach your body new ways of responding to that anger. For example, you may find yourself saying to me "I noticed I was getting hot and agitated, so I excused myself for a couple minutes."
You may find yourself able to focus your energy much more quickly than you used to, to come back focused and goal oriented. You may still feel 'mad' but it may be anger that is working for you, in alignment with your values.
