Psychodynamic therapy for anger in men works by expanding the emotional range available to the patient. The anger has been serving as the sole outlet for every internal experience. The therapeutic process gradually opens other channels. As the man develops the capacity to feel sadness as sadness, fear as fear, and hurt as hurt rather than routing everything through rage, the anger loses its monopoly. This expansion does not happen through instruction. It happens through the therapeutic relationship, where the therapist's consistent, non-retaliatory presence creates conditions in which the man can begin to experience his full emotional range without the consequences he has come to expect.
