Dr. Qatana Samanen
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I work with my clients to effectively manage their anger. You will learn the underlying physiology of anger and techniques you can use to calm yourself when your anger gets triggered.
You’ll identify the thoughts that trigger angry responses and substitute thoughts that empower you to remain calm and respond appropriately.
When you make these winning choices, you need never feel embarrassed by angry outbursts again.

Iris Bowen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MBA
Struggling with anger management can be an isolating experience, as it is one that tends to push those we care about away when you may need them most. Anger is often a blanket that protects us from other emotions which may be too difficult to name, or too big to feel. I can work with you to get to the root of your anger, incorporate anger management tools, and have healthier relationships with those you love using both cognitive and somatic strategies.

Full Being Services
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LPC, LCSW, LAPC
We approach anger as meaningful information—not a flaw or failure. Many individuals seeking anger management are carrying chronic stress, unresolved trauma, systemic pressure, or learned survival responses that show up as irritability, emotional reactivity, or explosive anger. Our work focuses on understanding the root causes of anger and transforming it into healthier, more effective expression.
We support adults, adolescents, and families in developing emotional regulation, impulse control, and communication skills, using trauma-informed and culturally responsive approaches. Clients learn how to recognize triggers, interrupt escalation cycles, and express boundaries and needs without shame or harm to themselves or others.
Anger management at Full Being Services is not about suppressing emotions—it’s about building insight, accountability, and sustainable coping strategies that support healthier relationships, personal growth, and long-term well-being.

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.
