In working with clients with anger-management problems, my approach often involves helping them feel understood and heard. Then, to increase their awareness of the different contributors to their issue, be it from unresolved feelings about past events, difficult recent events or worrying about the future. Using a structured cognitive-behavioral approach, such as found in CBT based workbooks such as the Cognitive Behavioral Workbook for Anger (William J Knaus) is often part of my strategy to increase insight and healthier coping skills.

There are 3 phases in working with Anger 1.Prevention- Attempts to forestall the very onset of anger. 2. Intervention- Aims to reduce the intensity or the duration of anger that has already ignited. 3. Postvention- Aims to discharge any residual anger. Emotions are regulated by re-experiencing, releasing, or converting them into a safe form. We will not only focus on your cognitions and behaviors as entry points but also focus on the modification of affect (your emotions). Anger is an emotion. To have no room in therapy for the feeling component of this emotion is to deny its very essence, your existence. Gestalt perspective- Expression of anger can be very productive. Let out!

Anger management is about anger understanding first. Why are we angry? I will help clients' seeking assistance with anger by creating a safe space to explore the anger, to process it, and understand it. We can't seek to manage it if we don't understand what is really happening for us. Through pattern exploration of experiences with anger, we can process and navigate the emotion and work together to manage it.

Anger is the outward expression of internal pain. Often, it is easier to be angry than to feel painful emotions such as sadness, loss, and grief. However, working through the underlying foundations of anger is not easy. By recognizing and understanding the feelings driving your anger, we can help you resolve your anger issues and support positive change in your life.

Anger is the most common coping mechanism that is often misunderstood. Suppressing or avoiding anxiety inevitably leads to being overwhelmed and sometimes emotionally exploding. Instead of suppressing anger, a person should learn how to embrace it, be curious about it, feel it, understand it, and eventually channel it in a healthy and constructive manner. Anger comes from a sense of being misunderstood, ignored or left unsupported and the therapy should acknowledge and explore these areas. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

Anger, frustration, rage, and reactivity overall, can make a person feel frustrated and powerless; when we have emotional outbursts of any kind they can feel so all-encompassing and make us feel like we are not in control of feelings, thoughts, and behaviours. In working with clients on their emotions I aim to primarily promote an understanding of why our emotional outbursts occur; once this has been established we begin to work on how to manage, mitigate, or change how these outbursts occur, or why we feel the way that we feel in the first place.

My approach to anger is that it is an emotional response based on thoughts that are often irrational and habitual. The thoughts can be so fleeting and difficult to detect that they become automatic and feel as though the anger springs fully formed out of nowhere. But anger can be controlled if its origins are understood. Often, it is a learned response based on watching our parents and other formative influences in our lives handle problems. We can be socialized to be angry. It can feel empowering at times if it is directed outward toward injustice and hurt, but it can also be directed inward or misplaced because we perceive injustice and hurt where it does not exist.

While anger is one of our five basic emotions, it is often the one that gets the worst rap. Anger makes people uncomfortable, and for understandable reasons. When we are angry, our brains go off-line and there is no reasoning with us. We are illogical, we are loud, we might yell or swear or blame others. Frustration is often a cause of anger, but it’s not the only root cause. Stress also plays a critical role in anger building up. Thankfully there are a lot of great concrete strategies that can help lessen the intense flames that burn within. Having a fire extinguisher is not necessary… just a quick call to a therapist will do.

Anger can be directed inward (depression) or outward towards others. We will uncover where in your body you feel the anger, how it affects your actions and feelings that it can generate. Will help you to label and express your angry feelings in a healthy and safer way eg. journaling, sports and being heard and feeling seen in therapy. Anger can be useful in some situations and can be a protection to some people. We will uncover together what your anger is like and what purpose it serves.

Anger is a natural emotion, that often comes secondary to the initial emotion. Anger is a behavioural response to unmet needs, not being heard, not listening to the primary emotions, and/or not voicing your concerns. Counselling may help you slow down the behavioural response and focus on performing more effective behaviours (e.g., communication). Through improved self-awareness, identifying emotions, addressing thinking patterns, and having behavioural options improvements can be seen. If individuals are willing to put in the work, they can lead more fulfilling lives and develop better personal and professional relationship.
