Anger Management and Counseling in New Franklin, OH.

Anger is a normal emotion but what matters is what you do about it and how you respond to it. We discuss with a client the costs of his/her anger and help the client to get to the root of the anger. We also discuss any triggers associated with the anger and teach the client coping skills to help manage his/her anger in a positive way. The goal is for the client to learn coping skills to enable them to manage their anger in a positive manner and ways to problem-solve future difficult situations.

Destructive anger can take many forms. Anger can be expressed in uncontrollable rage, snapping at someone, being unkindly critical, and a cold, icy withdrawal that punishes the other person by shutting them out. All of these reactions and many more can be destructive to the relationship and to our own feelings of self-esteem, guilt, and shame. I can teach you constructive alternatives to anger so you can replace destructive anger with healthier behaviors.

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 can be a destructive force when it translates to unmanaged aggression and behavior such as road rage, domestic violence, interpersonal problems at work, and more. Behavioral approaches to anger management are helpful when you are committed to making a change. Knowing the consequences of acting on your anger, and making the commitment to change is a necessary first step. Addressing underlying emotional conflicts and their origins can help resolve long-standing problems with anger.
