Anger is often a protective signal, not a flaw. We help clients explore what emotions lie underneath—hurt, fear, or unmet needs—and develop healthier ways to express themselves. Our approach promotes emotional safety, clarity, and connection in relationships.

Dr. Shannon Coleman
Psychologist, PhD
I have years of experience developing and delivering anger management interventions, including developing an anger management program at the VA. Therapy can help you understand what contributes to anger, recognize triggers earlier, and develop more effective ways to respond. Treatment focuses on managing strong emotions, improving communication, and responding to difficult situations without anger taking over.

Michael Bernstein
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Anger is often a "surface emotion" that, when mismanaged, can strain relationships and work life. It manifests not only as aggressive outbursts or disproportionate reactions but also through "shutting down," passive-aggressiveness, or emotional withdrawal. I can help individuals regain control by identifying physical warning signs and triggers, building self-compassion, and developing coping skills to reduce reactivity. By exploring the deeper emotions beneath the surface, clients learn to communicate their needs in a healthy, assertive way rather than through cycles of regret and remorse.

HUGH R STEWART III
Hypnotherapist, Ph.D., ACHt.
Hypnotherapy and Heart Centered Breathwork are great modalities for releasing anger at it's source. Most of us project our anger onto others from issues we had growing up. We get triggered and think its the person in our lives now. There is a difference in being triggered from behavior vs the actual original person(s). Anyone can trigger us with certain behaviors that remind us of unpleasant experiences from our past. In Hypnotherapy and Heart Centered Breathwork we I am regressing you back to one of the original times you were triggered with an unpleasant experience. That way we are cutting the roots or source of the upset. People in our lives now are not the source of our issues. Their behavior might remind us of that horrible feeling, but the trigger goes much deeper than that. So my goal in working with you is to cut the roots and eliminate as much negative stuff as possible from our past so we are free and unencumbered by our present life and people.

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.
