Yes, psychotherapy is effective for anger management. It helps you understand triggers, develop healthy coping skills, and improve emotional control. It can also support anxiety and selfesteem related to weight struggles. If you have any further questions or need more clarity, please consult with a psychiatrist.

Yes, most emotional and behavioral health issues require some component of psychotherapy, and when indicated, medications. The key with any mental health condition is a comprehensive evaluation of medical, psychological, and social factors that may be contributing to the picture. Without a clear, thorough understanding of the contributing factors, it would be hard to properly target the treatment. For example, one would not want to miss thyroid disease presenting as depression or heavy cannabis use as the precipitant for a psychosis.
