Anger Management

Kaiden Craddock

Licensed Professional Counselor

Individuals may struggle with anger management for a variety of reasons and often feel as though their behaviors are outside of their control. By providing space for validation and reflection, as well as practices to increase emotional awareness and frustration tolerance strategies, we can work to increase feelings of self-control and strengthen social relationships.

Anger management is a combination of emotional reactivity which can be reduced with trauma processing, combined with psychoeducation on controlling and abusive behaviors. It's a matter of changing from a competitive to a collaborative perspective.

Anger is often a very healthy emotion to feel however problems arise when its expression is misguided. When used properly anger can generate tremendous change and clarity. My approach to working with anger comes from a mind/body orientation--acknowledging that the body influences thoughts and emotions. I use the moving meditation of qigong in talk-therapy sessions to specifically address anger.

The realities of life, intersecting with our past, our beliefs, and others' expectations of us can cause unnecessary pain, fear, and pressure. This collective burden inevitably turns into frustration and anger. If we don't feel we have acceptable outlets for these emotions, we may feel trapped within our own experience. Learning how to untie ourselves from these 'emotional knots' is an achievable goal while working together.

Glenn Goldman, MA, LPC (he/him)

Anger is not the enemy. It is how we respond to our own anger that can get us into trouble. Anger is a complex response to external and internal triggers. Physiologically, it activates a part of our brain called the amygdala. We can actually learn to use the higher reasoning centers of our brains to actively calm our agitated amygdalas. This is the essence of anger management.

Anger issues are usually related to stress and trauma from the past! We can work through these and learn mindfulness techniques to keep us in the present moment and help us to monitor triggers before they become explosive.

People who struggle with anger can learn to overcome it when shown compassion and given a judgment-free space to examine their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. We'll address the deep-seated, unconscious beliefs, thought patterns, and historical traumas that cause anger to well up and explode. By getting in touch with your mind and body, you can learn to catch yourself before losing control, and find real, consistent peace of mind.
