Often, anger comes about when our boundaries are crossed, there is an injustice, or we have an unmet need. Sometimes anger covers up more vulnerable emotions like sadness. In our work we will turn toward the anger to discover some of the underlying causes that make you reactive. EMDR can be helpful in this way to help decrease the nervous system's arousal by addressing experiences that may have caused us to have beliefs about ourselves and the world that cause us to be reactive. We will also take a look at needs and empower you to do meet your needs. We will also discuss ways to discuss your feelings that don't harm others and sabotage you being listened to.

Anger often gets a bad reputation in our society and often the people expressing anger are left dealing with the shame that comes with damaging relationships we want to maintain. Underneath the anger is often something we deeply care about, that we don't want to loose or allow to be harmed. In therapy, we'll explore how anger is a positive, necessary emotion for life and how we need it to protect ourselves and the people we care about, as well as how to listen to the anger and allow it to transform our relationships with the people around us, and with ourselves.

Ever wonder why you can't get control of you anger? Maybe you've tried lots of different techniques or read a number of books and nothing seems to work for you. Too many of us with anger problems are too focused on the anger, to the exclusion of some of the emotions that trigger that anger. I work with clients to understand the full spectrum of their emotions and how anger is a part of that spectrum.

As a culture, we do not do well with healthy expressions of anger. Often we are raised to suppress it and then we have limited practice at dealing with big emotion. There is a spectrum of healthy aggression- to keep us safe and to maintain boundaries- and rage- our body's strategy for safety. Anger management is about applying the right "dosing" to maintain boundaries yet not fracture relationships or suffer other losses. I am able to help you learn to regulate your body to be able to apply the appropriate "dose" to be effective and not destructive.

Anger management counseling can help to identify stressors and learn the steps to stay calm in the face of anger. The goal is to handle tense situations in more constructive and positive ways by reducing the emotional and physical arousal that anger can cause. It will provide the tools to take back your life and resolve the triggers that result in unplanned anger reactions.

In my experience as an EMDR therapist, I pay close attention to the links between past and present. I’ve seen time and time again how unhealed emotional wounds resurface and come out sideways. While anger management can provide helpful strategies, they don’t get to the heart of the issue. Often, anger is what we see on the surface, but the real problem is what’s underneath the anger. Negative beliefs like “I’m helpless,” “I’m out of control,” and “I’m a failure,” start to bubble up, and anger comes to the rescue. It can get us in trouble, but at least it gets the blood pumping. With research-proven EMDR therapy, I help men heal anger at its source so it doesn’t have to be managed.

Some of the latest studies suggest that the root issue for those experiencing anger issues stem from a sense of self shame. I received training as an Anger Management Specialist I and am trained to work with individuals either through a 12 session course or a combination of coursework and individual therapy. I've found the latter to be very effective in helping people understand their anger response and develop other resources and outlets to manage that powerful emotion

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.
