Anger Management and Counseling in Whitman, MA.

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.

The benefits of my personally created program include: identifying your anger styles and triggers so you can gain the awareness and tools to avoid past responses, reduce stress, and manage negative self-talk and learn healthy inner guidance. You will learn how to effectively deal with past or present bullying or confrontation, and also understand self-destructive behavior.

I help clients to create a tool chest to use when experiencing anger. This includes mindfulness work to build the space in their heads to make new responses when angry. This includes empowering clients around the choices they can make and building on their strengths, while teaching relaxation and grounding techniques. Along with creating new space, I help them explore the variety of causes for their anger and help them reconnect to it in a healthier manner.

My approach to anger management focuses on helping clients understand the underlying causes of their anger and developing effective strategies for managing it. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I teach clients to recognize their triggers, reframe negative thought patterns, and practice mindfulness techniques. By equipping clients with tools to manage their emotions and improve their communication skills, I aim to reduce the frequency and intensity of anger outbursts and promote healthier, more constructive interactions.
