Richard Cox, PhD
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC
While the approaches for managing one's anger are somewhat simple, the actual practice of anger management is not easy. Simple does not equal easy. Sometimes all a person wants is to learn how to control the anger, and for others they also want to know why they struggle with it more than most people. The choice about what we focus on will be yours.

Peace and Balance Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Anger can feel consuming and difficult to control, often impacting relationships, work, and self-esteem. I help individuals understand the underlying emotions and patterns that fuel anger, develop healthier ways to express it, and build skills to respond rather than react. Through therapy, clients learn to regain a sense of control, improve communication, and create more balanced and constructive relationships.

Alina Hovsoyan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I support clients with anger management by helping them understand the underlying emotions, triggers, and nervous-system responses driving their reactions. Using a trauma-informed and mindfulness-based approach, I teach clients to recognize early signs of escalation, practice grounding and self-regulation skills, and develop healthier patterns of communication. Through evidence-based modalities—including CBT for cognitive reframing, IFS for exploring protective parts, and somatic strategies for reducing physiological arousal—I help clients replace reactive behaviors with intentional, skillful responses. Together, we work to build emotional awareness, strengthen coping tools, and create long-term strategies that support healthier relationships and improved self-control.

Jordan Dye - Prepared Acceptance
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, EMT
In high-pressure service roles, anger is often the only emotion that feels powerful enough to cut through the exhaustion. When you’re trained to be decisive and assertive, that "edge" can save lives at work—but it can create walls at home. If you find yourself snapping at your family, feeling a constant simmer of frustration with colleagues, or reacting with a level of intensity that surprises even you, it’s usually a sign that your "internal thermostat" is stuck.
Drawing on my experience in the military and emergency services, I look at anger as a signal of burnout or unprocessed stress rather than a lack of self-control. We won't just talk about "calming down"; we will work on the physiological and cognitive triggers that keep you in a state of hyper-vigilance. My goal is to help you dial back the reactivity so you can keep the professional drive you need without letting it burn through your personal relationships.

West Valley City is Utah's second-largest city and one of the most ethnically diverse communities in the state, home to large Latino, Polynesian (particularly Tongan and Samoan), and refugee communities that make it dramatically different from the predominantly white, LDS suburban cities surrounding it in the Salt Lake Valley. This diversity creates significant demand for multilingual and culturally competent therapy, and the intersection of mental health needs across immigrant, refugee, and Pacific Islander communities with Utah's broader LDS religious culture—which shapes community norms around mental health and help-seeking—creates a complex and underserved landscape. Intermountain Health and Valley Behavioral Health provide services in the area, and community health organizations address the specific trauma and adjustment needs of refugee populations. Common therapy concerns include immigration and refugee trauma, acculturation, family stress, economic anxiety, and the challenges of navigating mental health in a city where cultural and religious contexts vary sharply across neighborhoods.
