Anger Management and Counseling in Newtown, PA.

We will explore the meaning and causes of anger issues to help you understand your feelings and regulate your emotions to help you lead a fuller life. By looking at where you came from, where you are, and where you are going, we can progress through a plan to help you feel more in control of your life. This involves looking at your life in new ways.

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 feeling that all people experience. The trouble is often when anger leads to aggression or destructive BEHAVIOR. Often anger issues have dramatic costs including in relationships, at work/school, legal issues, and others. Often anger covers underlying emotions that drive anger including sadness, frustration, feeling disrespected, and shame/guilt to name a few. I help my clients understand their anger issues and learn new adaptive ways to cope with this emotion.

Anger can be both useful and destructive, it can motivate or it can destroy. Anger can negatively effect your health and welfare. If your anger is destroying your happiness and your relationships it is time to learn new coping tools. Often times beliefs and expectations can lead to rage and anger. I will help you learn about the belief systems that are not serving you well and coach you towards new belief systems. So often our desire for perfection or fairness lead to high levels of frustration. Learning to tolerate and detach can be tools toward serenity and peace. Forgiveness is not for the other person. It is for you. Learn how to channel your anger towards health and happiness.

As a group therapist, helping people address their anger in healthier ways is something we work on regularly and successfully. In the context of the group / team work, clients are encouraged to express their frustrations and irritations in new ways, so that the old 'stuffing feelings until you blow up' is no longer the first coping tool used.

Using a structured, yet individualized approach to anger management, I help you identify triggers and thought patterns that lead to issues with anger. Therapy focuses on learning to respond and not react to people, situations, and circumstances that have been troublesome. We cannot control other people, but we can control how we respond to them. I often provide court-mandated anger management.

Anger management is often worked through using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients increase awareness of their thoughts to help control their reactionary behavior. It can also be approached by looking at family and societal messages that support violent ways of expressing anger. Societal messages directed at men in particular, often support anger as an emotion men should focus on. This often masks other emotions, such as sadness or fear. Social Psychology paired with Emotion Focused Therapy can often help break down such negative messaging as well as increase healthy emotional awareness and expression.
