Anger Mgmt
Dr. Monika Sharma
Psychologist, PsyD
Anger attempts to protect us when something feels threatening or unjust. It can be extremely constructive when we recognize it and are thoughtful with it...effectively communicating our needs, fostering better understanding in our relationships, recognizing imbalances of power, and bringing about change. But can also be destructive when we don't understand what the anger is trying to protect, the degree to which the threat is real, and how to effectively influencing change while protecting the people and things important to us.
I will help you explore your anger without judgment to help you better understand the needs, values, and vulnerabilities that underly the invitation for anger. I will also teach you strategies to slow down your reactivity and learn to be intentional with your responses, instead.
I will teach you how to be curious about your uncomfortable feelings such as anger, anxiety, fear, sadness, loneliness, and overwhelm. This involves learning to build tolerance for uncomfortable feelings because they won't actually hurt us; approach these feelings without judgment; poke at them and examine them and see what lies within them; and then decide how we want to use these feelings as a compass to guide us toward those things that truly matter. You will feel empowered to be the master of your feelings, not a puppet to them.

Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., L.P.C., N.C.C.
Managing anger isn't about becoming a passive doormat or pretending nothing bothers you. It’s about realizing that throwing a full-blown adult tantrum gives everyone else control over your emotional state while you pay all the consequences.

Our anger management counseling focuses on helping individuals recognize the signs of anger and develop effective strategies to cope with and express this powerful emotion constructively. Understanding that anger can significantly impact relationships, work life, and overall well-being, we provide a supportive environment where clients can explore the roots of their anger and learn to manage its expression healthily.
Tailored Strategies for Managing Anger
* Self-awareness Techniques: Through the use of techniques like mindfulness and self-reflection, we guide individuals in identifying the triggers and situational factors that lead to anger. Enhanced self-awareness makes it possible to anticipate and prepare for potentially infuriating situations.
* Cognitive-behavioral Therapy (CBT): A core component of our approach involves cognitive-behavioral therapy, which enables individuals to understand the thought processes that underpin anger and to develop healthier thinking patterns. By altering these thoughts, clients can change their emotional responses and behavioral outcomes.
* Communication Skills Training: As poor communication often exacerbates anger issues, we emphasize enhancing interpersonal skills. This includes learning assertive communication techniques that enable individuals to express their needs and emotions clearly and respectfully, without falling back on aggressive or passive-aggressive behaviors.
* Stress Reduction Techniques: Clients are equipped with techniques to reduce stress, such as deep breathing exercises, physical activity, or relaxation strategies. By lowering overall stress levels, individuals can better control their emotional responses, including anger.
* Problem-solving Skills: We work to strengthen problem-solving skills to help clients address the issues that trigger their anger in more effective ways. This includes focusing on identifying solutions rather than dwelling on problems.
* Group Therapy Sessions: For some, understanding and observing that others face similar challenges with anger can be incredibly reassuring and enlightening. Group sessions provide a forum for sharing experiences and strategies, further aiding the learning process.
Goals of Anger Management Therapy
Our objective is to empower individuals not just to manage their anger, but to transform it into a positive force that drives change rather than destruction. By the end of therapy, clients are better equipped to handle life’s frustrations without lashing out, leading to improved relationships, greater personal satisfaction, and a more balanced life.
If anger is affecting your life and relationships, reach out to us. Together, we can explore the root causes of your anger and provide you with the tools to manage it effectively.

Dr. Kimberly L. Rehak
Counselor/Therapist, Ed.D., M.A., BCBA-D, CAC, BC-TMH, CCTP, THP, Practitioner/ Specialist.
Anger management strategies are developed in partnership with clients and sometimes the client's families and or other systems of "support" surrounding these individuals. Anger is a very normal emotion that when channeled appropriately can "light a spark" and ignite positive changes. The way we choose to express this anger can make all the difference. Suppressing anger has been found to have deleterious effects on one's mental and physical health and wellness and can also negatively impact the lives of others on their own life paths. Learning to express anger in healthier ways is the goal of anger management and training. In addition, strategies can also be taught to help others learn techniques to de-escalate and disarm/ defuse anger vs. invalidate, provoke, and escalate it, which can lead to other complications in the person's life, as well as the people surrounding that person.
