People who have negative consequences from their anger often blame the anger. They believe that they must find a way not to feel angry. The reality is that the first step is to deal with the way a person reacts to anger.

Once a person learns better ways of coping with life’s difficulties and ways to prevent bad behavior that stems from anger, then they may experience anger less often. This is something that our anger management therapists can help you with.

Become Equipped with Tools for Managing Anger

Most people dealing with these issues are looking for answers. They want a list of ways to deal with anger that will help fix them today. The truth is that there is no cookie-cutter, one-size-fits-all answer. The truth is that everyone must find the right solutions for their needs—which is where an anger counselor can help.

  • Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT): This approach helps individuals recognize and change patterns of negative thinking and behavior that contribute to anger issues.
  • Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR): MBSR teaches techniques to increase awareness of thoughts and emotions in the present moment, helping individuals manage anger triggers more effectively.
  • Relaxation techniques: Relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, and visualization can help individuals calm their bodies and minds when feeling angry or stressed.
  • Assertiveness training: Assertiveness training teaches individuals how to express their needs and boundaries in a direct and respectful manner, reducing feelings of frustration and resentment that can lead to anger.

Understand and Respond Appropriately to Triggers

Do you have triggers? Perhaps people, places, or things that make you angry? If so, you’re not alone—most people do. However, what most people may not know is that these triggers are not always what they seem. Often the brain will tell you that you’re angry at a specific thing when the actual cause of the anger is much deeper.
