Dorothy Brown
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Anger Management begins in thought changing and impulse control. Built up anger does not serve the individual. I encourage people to explore why they are angry and learn how to suffer less with their anger.

Faithful Connections Christian Counseling LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Anger is a normal human emotion, but when it becomes difficult to control or begins affecting relationships, work, family, or personal well-being, professional support can make a meaningful difference. At Faithful Connections Christian Counseling, we help clients understand what is beneath their anger, recognize triggers and warning signs, and develop healthier ways to express emotions and respond to difficult situations. Counseling may focus on emotional regulation, communication, conflict resolution, impulse control, accountability, and practical strategies for managing anger before it escalates. Our goal is not to eliminate anger, but to help you understand it, manage it effectively, and respond in ways that align with your values and goals. For clients who desire it, Christian faith and biblical principles can also be incorporated to support forgiveness, self-control, healthy relationships, and personal growth.

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.
