Grey Matters International and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, Ph.D approaches issues of anger management in a very humane yet fresh perspective. You see, anger is a normal emotion but it is the valence (intensity) as well as the coupling choice of what one does with this that is the problem. Telling someone to "not" do it or modifying behavior with a trite psychological plan that only breeds a compliant response is not the way to change anger. Brainwave optimization is a new cutting edge technology that allows one to rewire circuitry responsible for reactivity driving the anger.

Anger is a specific form of dysregulation where the body is out of balance and looking for away to get back into balance. We work with clients to get back into balance and find ways to release anger in healthy ways. Our goal is to understand where the anger may be coming from and work to find ways explore the things that may be underlying the anger response.

Anger is a surface emotion for many emotions. Anger is much like the “check engine light”, indicating that things need a deeper look. Jacqueline aids clients in this understanding. As well as a compassionate perspective on anger, and its importance in the healing process. Anger can have unwanted effects or consequences, sure, but when the individual looks to understand why they are getting angry it begins the healing process. Jacqueline does not accept court mandated anger therapy.

My approach to anger management typically involves components of (DBT) dialectical behavioral therapy, including, mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. In summary, mindfulness practices allow us to observe our current states of being, as they are, without judgment. Fostering emotional regulation allows us to work with what we are observing in ourselves. Distress tolerance skills help us work through the difficult moments. Lastly, interpersonal effectiveness work involves yourself and how you interact with others in your environment. DBT is shown to be beneficial when working with strong emotions, such as anger, and I have seen the benefits.

In my approach to counseling for anger and anger management, I focus on helping clients understand the underlying causes of their anger and develop healthy strategies for expressing and managing their emotions. Utilizing techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based practices, I assist clients in identifying and challenging the thought patterns that trigger their anger. By teaching practical skills for emotional regulation, stress reduction, and effective communication, I empower clients to respond to situations more calmly and constructively.

Most commonly, I work with men who need help with anger. All of us can lose our cool and hurt other people, but some of us are more likely to express ourselves through anger. There are many reasons why someone might have this issue. The key to learning to redirect ourselves at the critical moment is to be aware of our felt sense at the time. Most people are able to detect, when they train themselves to do so, a charge of emotion in the body. At such times, one must absent the situation before he says and or does something regrettable. It is helpful to learn to be mindful of our felt senses so we can drain the stress through special techniques and also avoid losing control.

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist / Certified EMDR Therapist / Experienced Christian Counselor

Available for Online Therapy

In my experience as an EMDR therapist, I pay close attention to the links between past and present. I’ve seen time and time again how unhealed emotional wounds resurface and come out sideways. While anger management can provide helpful strategies, they don’t get to the heart of the issue. Often, anger is what we see on the surface, but the real problem is what’s underneath the anger. Negative beliefs like “I’m helpless,” “I’m out of control,” and “I’m a failure,” start to bubble up, and anger comes to the rescue. It can get us in trouble, but at least it gets the blood pumping. With research-proven EMDR therapy, I help men heal anger at its source so it doesn’t have to be managed.

Licensed Substance Abuse Counselor

I'm Josh and I am a substance abuse counselor. Being a recovering person myself who has been sober from drugs and alcohol since April 2011, I know the frustration and agitation that comes hand in hand with substance use and recovery. Many times, anger is the driving force behind substance use in the first place. Being a substance use counselor and running anger management groups in the past, I know what works and what doesn't and I look forward to being able to help you as much as possible.

Counselor for Men and Couples

In 85016 - Nearby to Sun Lakes.

I specialize in helping men, and anger management is one of the things that guys struggle with most. For most men, we either stuff our anger and let it fester, and then usually explode when it has built up to a point that it can't be pushed down anymore. It's like a pressure cooker. I work with men to help cool their anger, and come up with other tools and outlets for their natural expression of anger. Also, for some men, depression is an inverted form of anger expression, and I work with is meant to help give a voice to their quiet suffering. I work with angry and depressed guys in the greater Phoenix, Arizona area.
