Girls are not encouraged to have it so they cry. Boys who are sad are criticized when they cry and are taught anger is acceptable. We either implode or explode. If you are struggling with overwhelming anger or rage or unable to get angry reach out today. Together we will explore this powerful emotion.

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.

I offer skills training to help individuals learn to be assertive rather than passive or aggressive. We will utilize scenarios and rehearse more effective ways of dealing with other people's anger and your own anger. We live in a fast paced, complex, multi faceted society with many stressors coming at us from poor driver's to rude service people. There are many opportunities every day to allow ourselves to express anger inappropriately. My goal is to help individuals learn effective coping strategies and ways to express & deal with anger appropriately. But also, behind anger is usually a lot of pain or hurt. It is important to learn the source of that pain.

As a culture, we do not do well with healthy expressions of anger. Often we are raised to suppress it and then we have limited practice at dealing with big emotion. There is a spectrum of healthy aggression- to keep us safe and to maintain boundaries- and rage- our body's strategy for safety. Anger management is about applying the right "dosing" to maintain boundaries yet not fracture relationships or suffer other losses. I am able to help you learn to regulate your body to be able to apply the appropriate "dose" to be effective and not destructive.

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.
