Dr. George Lough
Psychologist, Ph.D., S.E.P.
Anger, in the form of self-assertion, self-protection, and boundary creation, can be a useful emotion if properly managed. But inappropriate expression of anger is destructive to relationships and to you life adjustment.

Chris Scarberry
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I do evidenced-based work informed by CBT and DBT modalities. As mental health professionals, we find that many of the difficulties people face with managing anger have to do with the relationship between thoughts/feelings and behavior. It is necessary to look at what other emotions anger masks, and work on becoming more mindful of one's physical evidence of becoming angry so that different choices can be made sooner once one becomes visibly angry. Often, I meet with people who feel out of control in their lives and become angry when they are also hurt by the way they are treated by others. Sometimes, people were not allowed to sit with or express their feelings as a child and this leads to their not knowing what they are feeling at all, or they try to numb anger with substances or other compulsive behavior. When I work with clients on anger management, I always have them start with tracking their angry thoughts and branch out from here since that tells us what their underlying beliefs and fears are, whether the anger is directed inward or outward, and what purpose allowing themselves to be socially inappropriate with the anger may serve in accomplishing often unconscious goals or social outcomes.

Dr. JD Wright
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
In my practice, I offer a focused approach to anger management, designed to help individuals understand and navigate their emotions effectively. Recognizing that anger often masks underlying feelings and motivations, I work collaboratively with clients to uncover these deeper layers. Our journey together includes learning to identify and challenge unhelpful assumptions, which can be pivotal in reshaping responses to stressful situations. Additionally, I emphasize the development of practical skills for managing stress in the moment, aiding in the cultivation of a more balanced and controlled emotional life. This process is grounded in respect and understanding, providing a safe space for individuals to explore and grow.

Debra Younger
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC, LPC, LMHC, CCPT
All emotions are messengers that inform us that something is off in our internal system. The goal of anger management is to identify the underlying cause for the anger and resolve it through the use of Internal Family Systems. Anger itself is not the problem, but how it is expressed. Prior to using IFS, healthy ways to express anger are taught.
