First, make sure the child is safe from harm. Additional help can be provided through direct, honest, and non-threatening communication between parent and child regarding the parental concerns about the child's anger.
It would be best to get an assessment for her, e.g. a child psychologist would best be able to treat her with modalities specifically geared for child tx. Though it may seem like a lot to do, think of this as an investment in her future. The child psychologist will also give you tips in dealing with her anger, so that you and your daughter will become allies in this.
