Anger Management
Angry is a natural emotion and we all experience it from time to time. Anger can be a normal response to feeling sad, lonely or frightened and can communicate when someone violates our boundaries. However, if anger turns into rage, it can impair judgement making people more likely to do and say senseless or irrational and potentially dangerous things. If anger is interfering with your quality of life and relationships, seeing a mental heath professional might be the most effective approach.
