Anger management is an effective treatment for individuals seeking better control and understanding of their anger
Anger is a normal emotion that can be helpful when used appropriately. However, it becomes problematic when it negatively impacts various aspects of life, such as relationships or work.
Signs of problematic anger:

- Concerns expressed by others about your anger
- Increasing conflicts in personal relationships
