Anger Management and Counselling in Vaughan, NS.

Therapy for anger management is more than simply learning coping skills to control angry and sometimes aggressive impulses--although they are important. Anger is typically a secondary emotional response to something else, something much deeper that is working its way out through anger causing problems at work, school, play, and in relationships with family, friends, neighbours, and strangers. I can help you explore and process the underlying thoughts and feelings and find a place of calm and clear communication.

Our anger can be a sentry, a protector and a wise indicator that our boundaries have been transgressed or that something vitally important to us is threatened. It can also be a raging tyrant, a short fuse, a simmering internalisation that off-gases through passive aggression, or a childish tantrum. Becoming intimate with our anger is synonymous with becoming intimidate with our power. In anger therapy, we will work to understand the unique way your anger process happens through somatic awareness, mindfulness and emotional intimacy. We will look at your history with anger, your family lineage, and you will learn tools to channel this fire in ways that support rather than hinder your life.

Anger often stems from feeling so many emotions all at once. You lose a sense of control. You go from 0 to 100 in a blink of an eye. By getting angry you’re attempting to regain control that’s presumed lost. But instead, you’re full of guilt and shame. Feeling angry and reacting in anger, is simply exhausting. I’ll help you learn how to regain control, in a healthy way.
