Anger Management and Counseling in Minden, NY.

I use cognitive behavioral approaches to help patients learn to manage anger. Cognitive approaches means learning to view anger arousing situations in more constructive ways and a behavioral approach means learning new behaviours and new ways of reacting to situations in a more flexible manner. I also help patients fully express and understand the reasons why they reacted angrily in the first place.

Chris provides anger management counseling and psychotherapy where he is a Certified Anger Management Specialist (CAMS) where helps clients identify the reasons for anger and rage. Often the client might have other reasons for anger and mood swings. Often anger can be a problem in a marriage or relationship leading to safety concerns. Chris Colasuonno, LCSW-R provides assessment and therapy for anger. Some individuals may not recognize the cause for the anger or know how to get treated. Sometimes anger can be a mental health issue of bipolar or depression. Finding the reasons and offering solutions is one of my specialties.

My main approach is to help my client identify situations (contexts), people, behaviors (his and others) that seem to usher in varying degrees of anger. My main message is that anger is an appropriate feeling to loss and frustration, but it is his learning to appropriately express anger in an adaptive manner that leads to emotional growth and the mollification of the anger itself.

My approach to Anger Management counseling is rooted in helping clients process anger in a conscious way. I guide clients to recognize the difference between healthy anger and destructive, explosive rage, providing clarity and insight into their emotional responses. We explore the roots of suppressed anger, often tied to childhood fears or unmet needs for love, creating understanding rather than judgment. Clients are supported in expressing anger responsibly, raising self-awareness and accountability, while connecting with their authentic selves. This empowers clients to respond to life with honesty and integrity.

I provide a structured evidenced based approach to Anger Management helping clients identify triggers, understand the underlying causes of their anger, and develop healthy coping strategies. Through techniques such as CBT, emotional regulation skills, I can support clients in reducing impulsive reactions, improving communication, for healthy relationships.
