Steady Ground: (Emotion Regulation and Anger)

A small sandy island surrounded by clear turquoise waters under a blue sky.

Anger is a normal human emotion that occurs when what we want is not directly in line with what we have. Changes in mood are more likely to occur during times of transition, stressful events, and during certain stages of development. Collaborative sessions will focus on better understanding the impact of anger on behavior and helping learn to better understand how anger impacts relationships with others.

Treatment strategies include:

  • Understanding where anger comes from
  • Understanding the impacts of anger
  • Understanding areas of the brain affected by anger
  • Learning ways to calm down before reacting to triggers
  • Learning problem solving skills to implement when calmer
  • Improving communication skills
  • Helping parents understand their child’s anger better
