Problems with Anger?
Do the people in your life tell you that you have an anger problem?
Do you tend to go from 0 to 100 in an instant?
Have you gotten into legal problems because of your anger?
Do you find yourself getting extremely angry at others on a weekly or even daily basis?
Read on. This might be for you.
Who is Anger Management for?
Many people begin looking for help with anger management only after they’ve been court-ordered to attend. Sometimes people come because their boyfriend/girlfriend or spouse has insisted they get some help with their anger, possibly even giving an ultimatum that without some kind of help they will leave the relationship.
These are absolutely valid reasons for getting help, and in fact, having a real and present motivator from the legal system or a partner or family member can help people stay committed to and engaged in the process.
Of course, it can be less stressful for those who come of their own free will, who recognize on their own that their anger is causing problems in their lives. And working on a problem before it gets out of control is always more effective.
However you’ve decided to come to an anger management program, this process can work for you.

Why Anger Management?
The truth is, there’s a lot to be angry about out there. The world often isn’t fair. We have all been mistreated by others at times, or mistreated by the system at times. It can be terribly frustrating.
How often do you find yourself yelling at others? Are those others sometimes, or even usually, the people you love the most? Perhaps you’ve had problems getting along with “those idiots at work,” or have even been involved in a physical fight in or outside of the home. Obviously you’d like to be able to have a job, to avoid conflict at home, and to stay out of trouble with family, the boss, or the law.
The question each of us has to ask, then, is how will we choose to respond to that treatment? Anger is a natural emotional response, but it is often not a helpful one, if it turns into angry action. Anger management is not going to make the world a better place, nor is it going to make you never feel anger again. It’s going to help you deal with anger in a way that helps you get along with others, even when things aren’t going your way.

Our Testimonials
Raffi made me enjoy going to therapy. I have learned to talk through issues that seemed impossible and I feel so much better about the communication in my relationship now.
Tyson V.
Highly professional but down to earth. Both my husband and I felt completely understood and valued; something couples often fear simply cannot be achieved. I’m sure we’ll return we need a “tune-up”!
TA
I will always be grateful to Raffi for helping me through a very challenging time in my life. Within a few minutes of our first meeting, I was comfortable talking to him. I would highly recommend Raffi to anyone.

Chavi Shpilsky
Raffi is insightful, intuitive, experienced, and has a sense of humor. I would recommend Raffi to a friend or relative without qualm.
Channah C.
Caitlin is very professional–I found her organized, attentive and thorough. She made herself available when I had to reschedule sessions and she would follow up with me on her own time if she knew I was going through a challenging experience. She is one of the most top-quality people I have ever met.
Amanda Rosner
In such a short time, you worked wonders! One or both of us may return in the future but please know we’re both indebted to you. We’re back to cherishing our time with one another and back to looking forward to a long life as husband and wife.
