Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
I have been treating anger symptoms for many years. Therefore, it's an area in which I have particular experience. You and I will examine the component parts of your symptoms such as emotions, behaviors, and thoughts. We’ll then examine how these parts are connected and how they impact each other. I’ll help you create changes to one or more of these parts to achieve your desired symptom relief. My approach tends to be very concrete as I teach specific skills that can be quickly learned.

Dr. George Lough
Psychologist, Ph.D., S.E.P.
Anger, in the form of self-assertion, self-protection, and boundary creation, can be a useful emotion if properly managed. But inappropriate expression of anger is destructive to relationships and to you life adjustment.

Elisha S Lee
Counselor/Therapist, NCCA CTCC CPC
Our anger management counseling focuses on helping individuals recognize the signs of anger and develop effective strategies to cope with and express this powerful emotion constructively. Understanding that anger can significantly impact relationships, work life, and overall well-being, we provide a supportive environment where clients can explore the roots of their anger and learn to manage its expression healthily.
Tailored Strategies for Managing Anger
* Self-awareness Techniques: Through the use of techniques like mindfulness and self-reflection, we guide individuals in identifying the triggers and situational factors that lead to anger. Enhanced self-awareness makes it possible to anticipate and prepare for potentially infuriating situations.
* Cognitive-behavioral Therapy (CBT): A core component of our approach involves cognitive-behavioral therapy, which enables individuals to understand the thought processes that underpin anger and to develop healthier thinking patterns. By altering these thoughts, clients can change their emotional responses and behavioral outcomes.
* Communication Skills Training: As poor communication often exacerbates anger issues, we emphasize enhancing interpersonal skills. This includes learning assertive communication techniques that enable individuals to express their needs and emotions clearly and respectfully, without falling back on aggressive or passive-aggressive behaviors.
* Stress Reduction Techniques: Clients are equipped with techniques to reduce stress, such as deep breathing exercises, physical activity, or relaxation strategies. By lowering overall stress levels, individuals can better control their emotional responses, including anger.
* Problem-solving Skills: We work to strengthen problem-solving skills to help clients address the issues that trigger their anger in more effective ways. This includes focusing on identifying solutions rather than dwelling on problems.
* Group Therapy Sessions: For some, understanding and observing that others face similar challenges with anger can be incredibly reassuring and enlightening. Group sessions provide a forum for sharing experiences and strategies, further aiding the learning process.
Goals of Anger Management Therapy
Our objective is to empower individuals not just to manage their anger, but to transform it into a positive force that drives change rather than destruction. By the end of therapy, clients are better equipped to handle life’s frustrations without lashing out, leading to improved relationships, greater personal satisfaction, and a more balanced life.
If anger is affecting your life and relationships, reach out to us. Together, we can explore the root causes of your anger and provide you with the tools to manage it effectively.

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.
