Anger Management is really about learning to manage the full assortment of emotions. Anger is like the part of the iceberg that is visible because it's above water but below the surface there is much more going on.

Anger can show up as blowups, shutdowns, or a constant sense of irritation that is hard to shake. We will look closely at what sets it off, what happens in your body when it rises, and what patterns keep it going. Along the way, we will build practical skills for regulation and communication, and we will also make room for the hurt, stress, or frustration that anger is often carrying underneath.

I had one client early in my practice who came to me for one issue but after talking it appeared that the real issue was tremendous anger that had been building for decades and was affecting every aspect of her life, weighing her down. We did 2 sessions around that and she was so completely relieved of her anger, so lightened, that she was amazed.

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.

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.

Knoxville is home to the University of Tennessee — the state's flagship research university — and serves as the gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains and Appalachian outdoor recreation culture, giving it a distinctive blend of college-town energy and Appalachian heritage that shapes its therapy community. The city's growing healthcare sector, anchored by UT Medical Center and Covenant Health, provides institutional mental health resources and supplies clinical training to the local community. Knoxville's working-class Appalachian communities carry distinct cultural attitudes toward help-seeking — including strong value on self-reliance and community support — that therapists must navigate with cultural sensitivity. The University of Tennessee's psychology programs, combined with the city's proximity to Appalachian communities experiencing opioid-related crisis, mean addiction recovery and co-occurring trauma are among the most active areas in Knoxville's local therapy landscape.
