Anger management therapy FAQs

Can you get a therapist for anger issues?

Acquiring these skills through Anger management therapy empowers individuals to effectively manage and navigate their anger.

Sarah is amazing, I don’t know what I would do without her. She and I click in a way where she understands exactly what I am trying to articulate. Her personality also balances with mine - she can make jokes, empathize, and really just engages the perfect amount. We are a great fit.

I had my first session with Veronica today and immediately felt comfortable. She was kind, welcoming, and easy to talk to. I'm looking forward to continuing to work with her!

Julie is incredible, with her I’ve gone from not wanting to be alive to thriving. The transformation is amazing, and a big piece of that has been my sessions with Julie.

My provider has been great! We’re still in the unpacking stage and there are times that I just need to vent about my previous week so the flexibility has been nice.

I got in quickly, i have both a therapist and med manager from thriveworks and both are incredibly attentive and professional, ive suggested thriveworks to several people and they've gotten matched with a therapist pretty quickly as well. My intake process was great and was invited to make my own decision to continue based on how strongly I felt the match was. My therapist is incredible and relatable. Too bad she is my therapist and not able to just be my friend bc I think we'd hit it off
