Anger Management

Anger management is a therapeutic process designed to help individuals understand and control their anger, leading to healthier and more constructive responses to anger-provoking situations. It involves learning techniques to manage and express anger in ways that are less harmful to oneself and others.

Anger management therapy is typically provided by licensed mental health professionals, including therapists, counselors, or psychologists, who specialize in helping individuals understand and manage their anger issues. Therapy may be offered individually or in group settings, depending on the client’s needs and preferences.
