Psychodynamic therapy treats anger as meaningful rather than merely disruptive. Every episode of rage, every moment of disproportionate irritability, carries information about the patient's internal world. The therapist and patient work together to decode that information over time. As the underlying emotions become accessible and the patient develops the capacity to tolerate them without converting them into anger, the chronic anger tends to diminish on its own. The change does not come from suppressing the anger. It comes from addressing the reason the anger was necessary in the first place.
