Life throws curveballs. And another. And another. You may find yourself in conflict of your own doing or of someone's or something else. Some can navigate these changes and conflicts with natural supports and resilience. For the rest, there is therapy. Therapy gives the support to ask the questions one hesitates to and supports one through the journey of healing. Life is tough, but therapy is the place where one realizes they are tougher.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the darkness that overshadows your life? Maybe it is due to negative experiences or a past you cannot let go. Owning your story can be challenging but running from it can lead to results that are even more devastating. Mental health, varying crisis and substance abuse are common in today’s society, and many people benefit from talking with a mental health therapist. Often, our negative thoughts, patterns and persistent habits are what causes anxiety, depression, increased stress and other issues. As your therapist, I would work with you to develop goals that fit your needs and provide support.

Anger Management Therapists

How long does therapy take for anger management?

Treatment duration depends on the person’s specific challenges and circumstances. There are treatments for anger problems that are shorter and more goal-oriented, like Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), which can last weeks to months. Others, like Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) may last between six months and a year, while a more intensive treatment, like psychodynamic therapy, is open-ended, and clients may see their therapist for a year or longer.

How do you know if you need therapy for anger management?

Everyone gets mad from time to time. But when angry outbursts become frequent and cause damage to relationships, whether at home or in the office, it may be a good time to look into therapy. A therapist can assess where a client’s anger may be coming from, suggest strategies for averting angry outbursts, and help a client create a plan to become a calmer version of themselves.

Is there medication for anger management?

Medications do exist that help people mitigate the feeling of anger, but these are reserved for people with anger-related psychiatric disorders, such as intermittent explosive disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, or in some cases borderline personality disorder. In these cases, antidepressant medications may be prescribed to help with the client’s symptoms. In most cases of anger management, however, talk therapy is the recommended treatment, along with lifestyle changes where relevant.

What’s the best way to encourage someone to seek help for anger issues?

It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either themselves or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
