Find Calm and Control with Anger Management Therapy
Understanding Anger
Anger is a normal human emotion—a natural response to feeling hurt, threatened, frustrated, or misunderstood. But when anger becomes overwhelming, difficult to control, or leads to conflict in relationships, it can take a toll on emotional and physical well-being.
At Metro Psychotherapy & Counseling, we help adults understand the roots of their anger and develop healthier ways to express and manage it. Through a combination of CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), and DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), we provide tools to help clients respond to difficult emotions with awareness and choice, rather than reaction.
Why Anger Becomes Overwhelming
Uncontrolled anger is rarely just about the moment that triggers it. Often, it’s connected to deeper feelings of fear, shame, grief, or powerlessness. Past experiences, chronic stress, and unaddressed trauma can all amplify emotional reactivity.
Common signs that anger may be interfering with your well-being include:
Frequent arguments or relationship strain
Difficulty calming down after conflicts
Impulsive decisions or regret after outbursts
Physical tension, racing thoughts, or feeling constantly on edge
Avoidance or withdrawal after emotional episodes
Therapy provides a safe space to unpack these underlying causes, identify patterns, and learn strategies to regulate emotions more effectively.
Our Therapeutic Approach
Children with ADHD often face difficulties in school and at home—not because they aren’t trying, but because their brains process information and regulate impulses differently. Our child therapists provide engaging, developmentally appropriate support to help kids improve focus, frustration tolerance, and emotional regulation.
Therapy for children with ADHD may include:
Emotion and impulse regulation skills
Attention, organization, and transition strategies
Collaboration with parents and teachers for consistency
Building confidence and resilience
Parents also receive tools and guidance to better understand ADHD and to create home environments where their child can thrive.
What You Can Expect in Therapy
In anger management therapy, you’ll work with your therapist to:
Identify personal triggers and thought patterns
Build tools for self-regulation and communication
Practice mindfulness and relaxation strategies
Strengthen problem-solving and emotional resilience
Explore how past experiences influence current reactions
Our therapists create a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where clients can safely explore emotions and practice new skills that bring lasting change.
