We find the root of anger

• Anger can lead to externalizing behaviors such as verbal quarrels and tantrums and/or internalizing behaviors such as transmission or exacerbation of depressive symptoms.

• In many cases, people respond to the development of anger with aggression, which is a biological function of anger. It is an evolutionary response that helps advice individuals to resist threats.

How does it work?

Our anger management therapy provides a clear and distinct set of guidelines for treatment. It provides the person seeking treatment with a controlled platform to release their emotions and look for positive and positive reactions instead of negative and negative reactions.

People in therapy are encouraged to evaluate the conditions that cause them anger and to be aware of their emotional state at every level of excitement. Affected people learn how to use such psychological stimuli as a plan to control their anger.

Why anger management therapy?
