Behavioral Therapy
Behavior therapy and sometimes medication, like for ADHD, can help.
It's difficult to answer this question without knowing more about your daughter--her age and a bit about her life experiences, for example. Many kids act in ways that seem (or are) angry to adults when they're struggling to communicate or are suffering from anxiety or depression. It might help to have her meet with a therapist who can see what's behind her angry behavior.
