Anger Management and Counselling in Mulmur, ON.

Anger can destroy lives, families and relationships. I, as a professional, work on the idea of “he who angers you controls you”. Through a proven user friendly anger management process which incorporates many internal reflections, the client can begin to build more control over his/her emotions as a result more capable of handling difficult situations. Over time, through using these new skills, the client develops more confidence and assurance that he/she can deal with life’s challenges in a more calm and reasonable manner. Clients will also be provided with life long strategies and coping methods.

Our experiences of anger vary greatly. While I don't offer therapy services for anger management, at Psychotherapy Collective, our online clinic, we have many therapists who offer support for clients seeking help with anger.

Anger is a common emotion that can come easy to us and can feel quite powerful. Our anger can often help us identify when something doesn’t sit right with us, when we feel like our needs are not being met, or like situations pose some level of injustice towards us. However, it is what we do with this anger that can make all the difference in how we cope, experience, and navigate situations. As a therapist, I will never tell you how to express your anger, but rather I will empower you to manage it in a way that fits best for you and your life. Connect with me today for a free consultation to see if we are a good fit.

Anger is a common and useful emotional reaction. However, there are times when anger is excessive or extreme and controls a person to the point that it is hurtful to them, their life, and their loved ones. I work with clients to understand their experience of anger, learn to identify potential triggers and underlying issues, and develop coping skills to manage these issues and emotions. Clients will learn relaxation or calming strategies, how to communicate to reduce angry outbursts, problem solving skills, and how to alter negative thinking which may be contributing to the anger. This often results in clients feeling happier, more relaxed, and having improved relationships.

Anger can be such a frustrating emotion sometimes leaving us feeling shameful for even feeling that way. Men and women are often taught different messages about anger as they are growing up, impacting our experience and delivery of anger as an adult. Anger is a real and valid emotion, but how we express it can sometimes lead to problems. Let's figure this out together!

Maybe you are reaching out because your words and actions are affecting those you love. We will work together to address your emotional reactivity so that you can create enough space before your actions so that you can choose a different path. We will explore what is underlying your anger so that we can address the root cause. Anger is a secondary emotion, and we will work to discover the primary emotion that is causing you such difficulties.

Anger management therapy can significantly benefit clients by helping them understand the root causes of their anger and learn to express it in healthier ways. Through therapy, clients can develop strategies to control their emotional responses, improve communication skills, and reduce the negative impact of anger on their relationships and daily life. Ultimately, anger management therapy fosters emotional regulation, enhances personal well-being, and promotes more constructive interactions with others.

I have many strategies to help clients seeking to have better control of their anger. Some involve ways to cope in the moment, when emotion overwhelms, to minimize the harm to others. Together, we investigate the triggers for this powerful emotion in the present, and also, examine their history to uncover and understand the deeper frustrations, hurts, and traumatic experiences which have contributed to anger having such a hold on them. My therapy sessions are a non-judgmental, safe space to be entirely honest about the pain of the past, as well as a hopeful space, learning useful resources for making amends with others and concrete skills to constructively manage feelings going forward.

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.

Has your anger ever gotten the best of you? Anger is a natural emotion, but going from zero to 100 or seething inside with anger for hours may indicate that you are having trouble expressing your emotions effectively and are stuck in an unhelpful pattern of behaviour. Anger management counselling can help you identify triggers, learn how to regulate your emotions, repair strained relationships and increase positive experiences.

Self management of strong emotions including anger can lead to a deeper understanding of ourselves and, in turn, more compassion for the human experience in all its manifestations. Through the therapeutic process in which one feels safe, freedom to explore powerful feelings, and constructive ways of managing frustration can be developed so that anxious, stressful or volatile reactions can be channeled for the well-being of the self and others.

Are you finding it difficult to manage your anger? Anger is often a result of loosing your sense of control, feeling frustrated, or being blocked from something that is important to you. Psychotherapy can help you develop better self-understanding, reduce stress, cultivate better judgement, develop your communication skills, and increase empathy and connection with those around you.

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!
