Grey Matters International and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, Ph.D approaches issues of anger management in a very humane yet fresh perspective. You see, anger is a normal emotion but it is the valence (intensity) as well as the coupling choice of what one does with this that is the problem. Telling someone to "not" do it or modifying behavior with a trite psychological plan that only breeds a compliant response is not the way to change anger. Brainwave optimization is a new cutting edge technology that allows one to rewire circuitry responsible for reactivity driving the anger.

Anger is a normal, healthy emotion we feel when something unfair or unjust has occurred. Anger can also distract from deeper, more painful emotions like sadness, guilt or abandonment. Anger can also hurt others when it becomes out of control and is followed by feelings of guilt or shame. You may not believe you have the right to be angry so looking for root causes of the anger is key. Learn to communicate more effectively with others to avoid the buildup of frustrations or resentments which result in angry outbursts. Learn warning signals and practical skills to regulate emotions and respond more skillfully, rather than be reactive. Change is possible. Talking helps.

Fundamental to the work is a good therapeutic relationship. That is, we have the collaboration and trust to combine your knowledge of yourself and your situation and my skills and knowledge of the clinical issues to make change happen.
