The brain tries to keep us safe by associating perceived threats in our present environment with pain experienced in our past. For some, especially those who have been emotionally wounded earlier in life, the brain’s tendency towards a reactive “fight” response can be highly disruptive and even destructive.

For clients seeking how to control anger, we help clients revisit and process their earlier wounds in a safe environment and teach them to respond to emotional triggers in a more constructively, so that these intense feelings of anger get expressed in a healthier way.

For those seeking help in bettering their anger management, consider Individual Counseling, Couples Counseling, or Family Counseling, and schedule an appointment at our Metairie office today.
