Guy J Iacono
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Anger is not the problem. How it gets expressed, and what it costs you, often is. For many men, anger shows up as the most visible symptom of something deeper: chronic stress, unmet expectations, feelings of disrespect, or years of pushing things down without a real outlet. It can damage relationships, create problems at work, and leave you feeling like you are not in control of yourself.
Therapy for anger management is not about learning to suppress what you feel. It is about understanding where it comes from, recognizing the patterns that escalate it, and building the skills to respond rather than react. We look at triggers, physical cues, communication habits, and the beliefs underneath the behavior.
My approach is direct and practical. We identify what is actually driving the anger, develop concrete strategies for managing it in real time, and work on the relationship and communication patterns that tend to make things worse. Clients leave sessions with tools they can actually use, not just insight about why they struggle.
If anger is affecting your relationships, your career, or your sense of who you are, this work can help. I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to talk about what you are dealing with and whether we might be a good fit.

Dr. Brian Weir
Psychologist, PsyD
If you are having difficulties with anger management, I can help! We all experience angry feelings and it is a normal and healthy to have these feelings. Anger management is not simply about some techniques such as deep breathing, or going for a walk. These techniques can be helpful, but we will also look for deeper understand things that trigger your anger. Doing so will provide opportunity to address your anger and possibly heal past wounds. These past wounds can bubble up and take control in powerful ways in attempt to be heard / understood. On top of all this, we can find constructive ways to express our anger that will make us more likely to be heard and our feelings respected.

Lauren Palumbo
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Does your anger seem to show up before you even realize what's happening? Maybe you're snapping at loved ones, feeling constantly irritable, or overwhelmed by frustration. Rather than trying to suppress or control your anger, we'll work together to understand what it's protecting and what it may be trying to communicate, creating space for lasting change rather than temporary relief.

Chelsie Ciminelli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Holistic Health Practitioner
I work with individuals who struggle with anger, emotional reactivity, frustration, or difficulty managing intense emotions in relationships and everyday life. Rather than viewing anger as something that simply needs to be controlled or eliminated, I help clients understand what their anger may be communicating and explore the underlying emotions, experiences, beliefs, and protective patterns that contribute to their reactions. Through a trauma-informed and somatic approach, we work on developing greater emotional awareness, nervous-system regulation, communication skills, and the ability to respond rather than react. My goal is to help clients develop a healthier relationship with their emotions so they can feel more grounded, communicate more effectively, and experience greater choice in how they respond.
