Gail Eaves
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, NCC, LPC
Anger management is not the absence of disturbing emotions; rather, it is controlling impulsive aggressive anger outbursts. Learning anger management strategies is a worthwhile process. I will educate you how to use techniques to control anger related flare-ups, by helping you to recognize signs of anger and how to channel anger emotions toward a positive anger management outcome.

Kelsey Grant
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHCA
Anger is almost never the root — it's a part that learned to protect something more tender underneath. Fear, shame, grief, the sense of being unseen. I don't focus on managing anger so much as getting genuinely curious about what it's guarding. When the parts underneath feel safer, the anger usually stops having to work so hard.

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.

Greensboro is home to multiple universities — including the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, North Carolina A&T State University, and Guilford College — creating significant student mental health demand and a historically grounded HBCU community with deep connections to the civil rights movement. The city's textile and furniture manufacturing heritage has given way to healthcare, education, and distribution as primary economic drivers, and therapists frequently address occupational transitions and the identity challenges of a post-industrial workforce. Cone Health provides major institutional mental health resources, alongside a private practice community serving the Fisher Park and Irving Park neighborhoods. Greensboro's significant Vietnamese, Korean, and Latino communities drive growing demand for culturally affirming and multilingual therapists.
