About Anger Management

Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED) and chronic anger issues affect millions of Americans, often co-occurring with ADHD, PTSD, bipolar disorder, or depression. Uncontrolled anger is linked to cardiovascular disease, damaged relationships, and legal problems. Evidence-based CBT and DBT-based anger management programs have strong outcomes. Psychiatric evaluation can identify underlying treatable conditions contributing to anger.

Anger Management is highly treatable with the right care. Ambetter covers anger management treatment at Lyte Psychiatry under its mental health benefit.
