Hypnotherapist, CCHt, NWP, EP, B.Msc
Anger management is the practice of learning how to recognize and control feelings of anger in order to prevent them from turning into destructive behavior.
It involves developing healthy ways to express and cope with anger, as well as understanding the underlying causes and triggers of this emotion. Identify triggers: Reflect on what situations or people tend to trigger your anger. By recognizing these triggers, you can better prepare yourself and develop strategies to cope with them.

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.

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you feel on edge, anxious, irritable, or just can't relax, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats anxiety and related conditions typically using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and exposure therapies. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Anger can be a difficult emotion for many people - you may have received messages throughout your life about what is or isn't "okay" to feel, or you may feel at a loss of how to navigate the strong waves of anger when it hits. We work on understanding the role and function of anger, while working to reshape any messages that may be keeping you stuck. Building comfort and flexibility with anger is all about building our awareness of our cues; reshaping our relationship with anger; growing our regulation skills; and practicing how we can let our anger inform how we choose to respond, rather than being driven by the anger itself.
