Some people have difficulty controlling their physical, emotional, or behavioral responses to anger. Various things can cause this difficulty, such as neurological conditions or past trauma. Regardless of the reason, there are plenty of counseling techniques to understand anger and control behavioral responses to it.
Available Treatment Options
Anger Management Therapy uses techniques of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to assist people in adjusting their responses to situations that anger them. Therapy for anger management includes identifying triggers for anger, understanding the impact of behavioral responses to anger, and finding coping strategies that are less harmful and healthier.
