Anger is a powerful emotion, but when it feels uncontrollable or destructive, it can take a toll on your relationships, health, and peace of mind. In this episode, we explore how EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy, originally developed to treat trauma, is being used to help people understand and manage anger at its root. You will hear from EMDRIA Certified Therapist, Approved Consultant and Trainer, Holly Forman-Patel, LMFT, LPC, as we unpack how this therapy works, why it's effective for emotion regulation, and what to expect from an EMDR session. Whether you struggle with chronic anger or are curious about trauma-informed approaches to emotional healing, this episode offers insight and hope.
