Anger Management and Counseling in Elkin, NC.

Anger issues often involve very deep roots. Hurst, fears and frustration often are the "seeds" of open anger. If one can understand what grows apparent anger then goals can be set to work through the "seeds" until each one is pruned. We do not merely want to skim over the anger issues but to dig deep and pull up by the roots. Many people feel such a heavy burden lifted when they are able to forgive pains from the present and past.

Anger management counseling can help to identify stressors and learn the steps to stay calm in the face of anger. The goal is to handle tense situations in more constructive and positive ways by reducing the emotional and physical arousal that anger can cause. It will provide the tools to take back your life and resolve the triggers that result in unplanned anger reactions.

Anger is often a misunderstood emotion and often looked at as more negative than positive. In applying cognitive behavioral approaches to developing a healthy use and control of anger, therapy will support you in not suppressing anger but recognizing the difference between healthy and unhealthy anger and regaining your mastery over this complex emotion. Often this leads to overall better self understanding and increased confidence as well as improved personal and professional relationships.
