Anger Issues

Anger has primary roots tied to Anxiety. When we feel threatened, we can enter one of our survival mechanisms, "fight" mode which produces anger. I start by taking the time to explore the root cause of anger and increase your awareness of your internal response with tangible coping skills. This supports you in reducing shame and guilt surrounding anger as well as increases your ability to regulate and communicate your emotions with confidence.

I can help by providing you with the specific tools needed to overcome your pain. Asking for help can be hard, and at the same time it is the first step toward regaining control of your life.

I have worked with clients to successfully resolve anger management issues by connecting triggers to past trauma and providing strategies to recognize & manage negative emotions.

I believe that anger is an expression of underlying unmet needs. Let’s work together to help you gain the skills to emotionally regulate intense emotions and strengthen your communication with your loved ones.

Anger can be one of the most difficult emotions to navigate. Out of control anger is surprisingly common. It can affect our relationships, careers, and even our health.

Anger is a secondary emotion. This means that there are usually some other underlying feelings that are pushing it to the surface. This can be fear, sadness or humiliation. Also how we analyze what is going on outside of us, effects how we feel and act. Sometimes deep rooted issues are impacting our emotions. There are some strategies that can be used to help you regain control of your emotions.

Anger is often a trap that becomes too familiar and habitual. But anger is also a great motivator that helps us move mountains. How to find the golden mean where it is not dangerous, but empowers us to get things done? Mindfulness is a uniquely useful method for developing self-awareness whenever anger arises. Learning my individual anger triggers and cues is a good way to begin understanding how to shape my anger into the engine that creates better relationships and a joyful life.

I have worked with client's with anger due to change in careers, family conflict, relationship issues.

Anger is a normal human emotion that warns us that something is being done to us that is threatening, unjust, or gets in the way of getting our needs met. Of course, we can become angry at ourselves for a variety of reasons. Anger by nature is not a “problem” nor does it always require “anger management.” Unfortunately, for many people, anger can become a problem . I help people for whom anger has become a problem through developing behavioral and emotional self-awareness, understanding about triggers and underlying causes, and effective coping skills (aka “tools”) that can help them manage their anger reactions in more constructive ways.

I have a program for dealing with anger issues and the underlying causes that is successful.

Anger. It's something that a lot of us deal with- whether it's from you or from someone you care for and you just happen to be in the "Backblast Area". It effects us in some pretty major ways, like- 1. "Road Rage" 2. Snapping at family members/friends/co-workers 3. Thinking "People piss me off because they're stupid" 4. Feeling impatient with people then later wondering "Why did I do that?" Let's talk about those situations and figure out what to do about it.

I have experience with both facilitating an Anger Management Group at my clinic & also have treated people with Anger Issues on an individual basis. When it comes to anger, I think it's important for a therapist to be able to remain calm, to understand that anger many times comes from past trauma and to be able to work on Distress Tolerance & Deep Breathing/Grounding Work with clients.

My experience in this area include, creating, and running an anger-management group in an acute partial hospitalization program. Furthermore, I co-developed an anger-management curriculum for justice involved youth in Bergen county.
