Anger Management and Counseling in Glencoe, IL.

Clients seeking support for anger management will find a nonjudgmental space to understand what’s behind their anger and how it shows up in daily life. Together, we’ll explore triggers, identify underlying emotions, and develop practical strategies to respond rather than react. The goal isn’t to get rid of anger—but to learn how to express it in healthier, more constructive ways that support your relationships, goals, and overall well-being.

In my psychotherapy practice, I help patients with uncontrollable anger by providing a supportive environment to explore underlying triggers. Using various behavioral techniques, I teach patients to identify and reframe negative thought patterns, develop healthy coping strategies, and improve emotional regulation. By fostering self-awareness and promoting effective communication skills, I guide patients toward managing their anger constructively, enhancing their well-being and relationships.

We look at anger as a secondary emotion. It is very easy to characterize a person as "angry" and not explore where the reaction or response truly stems from. Our approach is to provide healing at the root. We explore what other emotions may be operating, so that we can address what has really provoked a negative response. We also try to find ways to replace the thoughts that evoke an angered response with something that helps our clients feel more in control.
