Anger is a common response when we are afraid. It can also be a reaction when we feel shame or guilt. The challenge with anger is that unreleased, it can create health issues and when released, it can have serious consequences.

By becoming self-aware, the client begins to gain control of their emotions which in turn allows them to have different outcomes.

Anger is an emotion, and like any emotion, it serves a purpose. When proportional and effectively directed, anger can motivate us to act and make changes.

Much of parenting work is teaching our children and teens how to be safe, compassionate, and respectful human beings.

In our therapeutic approach and parent coaching sessions, we provide individualized support for understanding what may be underlying the anger and how to strengthen emotion and behaviour regulation.

Anger is something that gets the best of all of us at one point or another. And sometimes it feels so heavy that we learn to react on it instantaneously, which may hurt ourselves or others around us. My goals are to help you to manage your anger reaction by learning how to channel it through positive and productive endeavors, as well as to explore the history of your feelings of anger to learn where they began. Our work will not only change your anger reactions, but will also aid in decreasing the anger feeling itself.

The use of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is something that many anger management therapies incorporate. By trying to get a patient to open up about their emotions and feelings and being driven to accomplish a specific task (in this case controlling anger), a person can see positive results in their behaviour. By slowing down our thoughts, we can catch ourselves when anger presents itself and choose an alternate course of action, more in line with our goals.

Anger is typically expressed negatively which results in strain for every individual involved in a situation. It can drive an individual to cause injury and pain (both emotionally and physically) to others. When this occurs it is an indicator that seeking help may be effective in gaining control of their emotions. The most effective way to help those with anger management issues is with cognitive behavioral therapy. Cognitive behavioral therapy raises awareness and concerns of the individual’s cognition and corresponding behaviors and how they impact the environment and people around them. Resultantly, the individual is provided with insight on how to change their perspective and how to b

I tailor anger management treatment to the unique needs and life situation of each client. What distinguishes my approach is that I do not simply counsel people on how to act, nor do I gloss over the real source of the problem. This would be akin to putting a band-aid over a gaping wound. I know that the only way to effectively make a permanent and recognizable change is to address the root cause of what is fueling a person's rage, explosiveness, and destructive behaviour. I treat people with sensitivity and compassion surrounding their emotional vulnerabilities and difficulties that cause their disruptive affect, which negatively impacts their lives and work collaboratively.

Anger is a completely normal, often healthy human emotion. But if it gets beyond your control, it can be very destructive in your work and interpersonal relationships and can drastically devastate the quality of your life. Fortunately, anger can be 'managed' which is very different than 'suppressing' it. Unexpressed anger leads to a host of other problems including high blood pressure. However, when we learn how to 'manage' our anger, we can learn to diminish both the emotional feelings and the physiological arousal that anger causes. We can learn to avoid triggers and develop strategies. We can learn how to problem solve, change our thinking and relax our bodies.

Anger is a normal emotion. However, anger becomes a problem when it occurs frequently, is disproportionate to the situation that triggered it, when it leads to verbal or physical aggression, and when you cannot “let it go” even after the situation has passed. Anger management helps people identify the triggers for their anger and to develop strategies to manage those triggers so they do not lead to excessive or inappropriate anger. While it may not always feel like it, there is a step between whatever triggers your anger and your feelings and expression of anger. You may not be able to avoid the people or situations that make you angry, but you can learn to change your reactions to them.

,I understand that anger management can be challenging, especially when it starts to negatively impact relationships, work or overall quality of life. My approach to Anger Management is focused on identifying triggers, managing emotions, and cultivating healthy communication skills to improve overall wellbeing. By utilizing Mindfulness-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), relaxation techniques, and effective communication strategies, clients can develop the tools necessary to manage outbursts and reactions in a healthy way

Anger is an emotion like any other emotion. When channelled in a healthy way, anger can be a great motivator, and it can be an appropriate response to injustice. On the other hand, anger can be very destructive. Anger pushes people away, it alienates those who are close to you, it controls others (and yourself), and it can be abusive. Anger is typically the way we have learned to express deeper emotions, our core emotions. These emotions include: hurt, sadness and fear. If you attend one-on-one counselling with me or one of my associates, you will learn the following: communicate your core feelings; recognize your body warning signs; change your thinking; and relax!
