In order to effectively manage anger it is important to understand the purpose of it. Anger is always when you believe a person or situation has done something unfair to you. This feeling or unfairness or resentment piles up and comes out in inappropriate ways. I will assist you in resolving these feelings so you can move forward and enjoy life and relationships in a new and different way.
John Kenney, RPC,CCPCP
Using a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Hakomi Body Centered Therapy I help clients with anger issues understand the origins of their anger. Helping clients to understand their emotions plays an integral part to complete the picture of managing anger and negative emotions.
Clients must be willing to "do their homework" between each session, and if they do, great progress, growth and understanding can be made in their life.

If you are angry, there's a reason for it. I will not help you to simply "manage" your anger. Rather, I will work with you so that you come to a full understanding of the root cause or reasons for your feeling this way. I will teach you simple, yet highly effective, techniques so that you learn to tolerate your more turbulent, uncomfortable feelings, to express them in a manner that is healthy for you and for those you are in relationship with and to work with, not against, your body's own internal wisdom.
Michael de Jong, R. Psych. #1529
Anger is the normal reaction we experience when are faced with behaviours that are completely different than we think they should be while uncontrolled anger is really about acting on what we experience. Since we can't change our thoughts and feelings, the key is learning how to see and experience angry thoughts and angry feelings without acting on them. Dr. de Jong will help you change your perspective to your angry thoughts and feelings which will allow you to avoid acting on them.
Rosemary Fromson, MPCP, RPC
I work with the client to obtain a history of how difficult situations were handled in their family, with their peers, with their professional and personal relationships. I have several techniques that I teach to the client to help them through an emotionally charged time. Understanding where their beliefs came from is a major step towards changing how they respond to situations. Anger is an okay emotion; it is how we respond to it that matters.
Anita Bloy, MA, RCC
Feelings of anger and frustration are part of the human experience. They are though, emotions which many are uncomfortable with and which can greatly impact a person's life and relationships. Counselling can help individuals accept their feelings of anger, to learn from these feelings and to then express these feelings in a respectful and constructive way to create meaningful changes in their life. By discovering the underlying message or unexpressed need behind the anger, individuals will feel more in control of themselves, their relationships and their life.
Lee Cassels, MA, CCC
Anger is an emotion that can make you feel out of control or alienate you from others if it is unleashed in volatile ways. Understanding how anger works and learning some anger management skills can help you take a stand and make your point but not at the expense of losing relationships. My approach includes first gaining a clear understanding as to how anger is negatively affecting your life and then providing you both knowledge and skills to positively address your situation.

Anger can be a vehicle for change when it is properly channeled but too often anger turns to rage and leads to destructive behavior. Anger management is not just about controlling your anger but also about understanding the sources and resolving the real problems. Repressed anger often turns into anxiety so it is important not to just bury it. For example often when we loses control over a small detail (someone disagrees or criticizes you), inside there is a voice telling you that you are not respected or no one cares, etc. It is the combination of the situation (called a trigger) and your perception (or generalized belief ("no one listens") that causes your anger to go from 5 to 10.
Gayle Way, Ph.D., R., Psych.
Do you find yourself feeling chronically angry no matter how hard you have tried to let your anger go?
When it is habitual, anger serves as a distraction from other feelings such as fear and sadness. Choosing to dismiss our feelings for fear of appearing silly or needy, we distract ourselves with anger and, in so doing, we create more separation from the awareness of our Self and true Essence.,
The energetic process I facilitate helps you to dissolve your anger rather than to simply manage it. You learn to embrace All of your feelings without judgement.. As you stop suppressing your feelings, you begin to experience the whole range of feelings including Joy and Excitement

Real Solutions to Real Challenges. Common Sense Techniques.
Anger can be helpful or it can be destructive. Anger unchecked and not understood can consume a persons attention and energy and keep them stuck. Anger can be hepful in that it is telling us that something is wrong. We may feel unfairly treated, overpowered, and hurt. As a result individuals may become defensive, withdrwan/silent, or even aggresive if they sense injustice and then go the attack. Quite often if the intensity of the anger response seems out of proportion to the current incident then this is most likely due to a cumulative history that comes rushing in to the present and hence the over reaction.

Anger is often a very difficult emotion to manage in our everyday life and can cause pain and hurt to others and ourselves. My approach in working with anger is one of acceptance and empowerment. Anger on its own is not the problem; it is the way in which we express anger that creates problems in our life. Accepting that anger is a part of life and finding ways to manage it in a healthy way is the goal of counselling.

Anger mangement is primarily based on Cogntitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), though is integrated with other approches considering the needs, age and situation of the individual. Art and Play therapy may be used with children, (as well as Art Therapy for adults) in the understanding, expression and processing of anger in intent to reduce the experience of anger and its expression. Positive coping and managment are promoted and families (parents+kids) in coflict can expect to explore ideas / models of conflict reduction. In this way, parents of kids should expect to be involved in learnining how to deal with anger and how to assit their children in learning improved ways of anger management.
Ian Bond, M.A., R.C.C.
Ian provides professional, effective, and compassionate therapy for issues involving anger. He helps clients achieve their goals such as reducing their overall frequency and intensity of angry feelings, and increasing their ability to recognize and express angry feelings appropriately when they happen. As well, it is often important to develop insight and awareness about what triggers angry behaviours, and the origin of these triggers. This may involve healing past hurts and traumas. Other goals include finding alternatives to aggressive anger, and developing better control and more serenity. Ian offers a 30 minute consultation to briefly discuss your specific situation and how he can help.
Elaine Clark, BA. M.P.C.P.CCht
Anger is a reaction to a feeling of being victimized in some way. It is an attack on ourselves or on someone else in an attempt to draw attention to pain. When seen as a cry for love, it is easy to find what belief is creating the outburst of anger and correct the belief and the reaction to it. I have no interest in controlling anger, but replaceing it with love.

Anger and sadness are two sides of the same coin. In my practice, I've found that those who have issues with anger actually have unresolved issues surrounding the sadness they feel toward others or towards the situation they are in.
As a trained therapist, I work with my clients to address issues around sadness. Once these issues are resolved and there is functional closure, I then help clients address their maladaptive behavior with respect to anger issues.
I use various approaches, including psychodynamic, Rogerian, humanistic, and cognitive-behavioral, to name a few.
Feel free to call my office to discuss your particular concerns in confidence.
Lee Kotsalis-Thulin, MA, RCC
Most of us learn how to 'do' anger in our family of origin. We may have learned to 'overdo' it, by letting anger transform into violence or other forms of aggression, or may have been shown how to 'underdo' it, disconnecting from our experience and expression of anger altogether. To me, anger management means becoming able to identify the experience of anger -- how it feels in our bodies, what stories we are telling ourselves about it, what it is communicating about what is going on in our lives right now -- and using that awareness to make a reasoned decision about whether and how to express it, one that takes into account respect for self and others.
Deborah Nelson, M. Sc. Psychology, RPC, MPCP
Anger, although a completely healthy human emotion, can also turn destructive and become a powerful unpredictable emotion. Expressing anger in an assertive non aggressive way, making clear what your needs are and to get them met respectful of both self and others is imperative. Working together to determine the underlying cause of the anger. earning how to calmly and respectfuly have these needs met, learning relaxation, problem solving and better communication skills are what is needed to be learned. Unexpressed anger can cause hypertension, high blood pressure and depression as well as highly explosive behaviour. With committment these new skills can be learned.
Sean Hassall, MA (Counselling Psychology) CCC, RCC
Anger management counselling will focus on equipping you with a helpful five-step approach: (1) Awareness, (2) Assessment, (3) Adjustment, (4) Associated Needs, and (5) Action Plan. A special emphasis will be placed on learning to calm your anger intensity (e.g., diaphragmatic breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, etc.) and cognitive-behavioural techniques that will really make a difference!
Annette Kasahara, BA, MEd. (Psychology), RCC
It is my hope that clients will learn strategies to assist them in more effectively managing emotions of anger and the accompanying negative behaviours. Clients will explore and identify underlying causes of such emotions, as well as situational “triggers”. It is also my hope that clients will develop communication skills that will promote healthy interactions and successful resolutions of conflicts should they occur.
Allison Bates, MA, RCC
Many people struggle with anger management. Anger management counselling can help you identify where these feelings are coming from and identify when they are about to happen in order for you to learn to control these strong feelings. Counselling is a great way to tackle these struggles as the therapy is tailored to you and your specific issues while in a confidential, supportive and non-judgemental environment.
Tamara Knott, BA, BComm, MA, RCC
One of the greatest detriments of anger is that it makes us feel helpless and out of control. Anger management techniques aren't meant to eliminate your anger. Anger management techniques put you in charge of the situation and teach you how to make your anger work for you. Resolve conflict creatively, calm yourself before you hit the red zone, recognize the early warning signs of anger…so that you’ll stay in control of your emotions, offer and respond to criticism with confidence and react to a crisis calmly and confidently...so that you will be powerful instead of overpowering.

Anger can be a painfully destructive force in relationships and it can be a tool to keep others away. Gaining tools, insight and skills through cognitive behavioral therapy will assist the client in having a greater control over their destructive behavior and alternate responses to defensive emotional reactions. Reparation of relational damage may also be integral to the clients health and wellness along with addressing the origins and functions of the destructive behavioral responses. Separating anger from behavior is key to success in anger management and developing healthier responses to anger.

In many situations, it is most helpful to find the wound under the anger, the place where the person took the hit. Then, we can attend to the wound. We see what needs help in that place and what it might need to begin healing instead of festering. Many times the same place is getting hit over and over, without any resolution. It is also helpful to have some effective coping strategies for what to do to deal with anger when it comes. Working from both ends, anger begins to subside and leaves room for forward movement and new life experiences.

Anger is a healthy and normal emotion. It is only when it is acted out in inappropriate ways that it becomes unhealthy and socially "unacceptable". The key to getting a handle on anger is to learn mindful awareness of what you are actually experiencing in the moment - particularly what you are experiencing physically in your body. That moment to moment awareness shows you the truth of your experience and slows your reaction time, giving you a chance to take a breath, evaluate, and assess how you might want to RESPOND, rather than simply REACT, in a given situation. It is equally important to discover underlying anxiety or depression that might be contributing to unwanted anger.
David Aboussafy, Ph.D, C-SAE, R.Psych.
I work collaboratively with clients who would benefit from skill development in areas such as anger management and emotion regulation. In a non-judgemental, supportive environment, I employ a range strategies and exercises from treatment methodologies including: cognitive behaviour therapy, mindfulness, dialectical behaviour therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy.

Anger is often a cover up for underlying feelings of sadness, hurt, fear, jealousy, powerlessness and anxiety. Counselling will allow you to learn the meaning of your anger and what is beneath it. Anger management will also teach you tools for controlling negative thoughts, calming yourself and becoming assertive instead of aggressive. This is an opportunity to grow as a person.
Mariette West, RN RCC BSN MA
Anger is a healthy, normal, emotion meant to help us protect important boundaries. But it can also get in the way or seem to take charge as when it turns to rage, aggression or violence. If you are angry all the time or get too angry, it is time to intervene, getting help to find the triggers, and strategies for better managing them. If you think of yourself as a hothead or others call you that, or your tolerance for frustration is so low you get angry at even 'the small stuff' or if others fear being around you then it is time to seek help, preferably before your anger takes control of your life. Learn tips & coping strategies in order to better manage and reduce anger and its impact.
Naomi Kolinsky, M.Ed, RCC
If you struggle with uncontrollable anger I can teach you healthier ways of managing and expressing it. Strategies that you would learn in therapy include discovering the origins of anger in your life, identifying your current triggers, recognizing early physical sensations that are warning signs of rising anger, and connecting with and expressing your primary emotions of hurt or fear that your anger is a reaction to.
Kate Blassnitz, MSW, RSW, HTP
Anger is neither good nor bad. Anger is a problem when it hurts relationships, either because too much or too little anger is expressed. Anger can trigger health concerns because anger has both an emotional and physical component. Learn how to express anger in ways that help you get what you need. Learn how to identify and change the thoughts that trigger anger. And learn how to identify your physical symptoms so you can be more aware and in control of your anger.
Shawn McNabb, B.A., M.Ed. (Counselling Psychology), R.C.C.
I have had a lot of experience supporting clients to understand this powerful emotion. Through working with hundreds of adults and adolescents I have found that anger is often an expression of other painful feelings such as embarrassment, shame or abandonment. Effective strategies include R.E.B.T. approaches which highlight that you cannot control the events that make you angry but you can control how you choose to perceive them.

Anger can arise from a number of events in one's life. For some it is comes about from frustration and a lack of coping strategies, for others it is the culmination of many (sometimes divergent and seemingly unrelated) events, or it may be in reaction to changing life circumstances (e.g. loss of employment). I work first to help my clients understand the source of their angry behaviours, feelings, and thoughts, and then work with them to develop more effective ways of expressing their needs and dealing with other potential triggers. Leaving them feel a greater sense of control and strength.

Quyn will also help you learn strategies that you can use to better manage your anger, as well as how you can replace hurtful or aggressive expressions of your anger with the ability to communicate your needs to others in ways that are authentic, meaningful, inviting and connection-fostering.

Using ground-breaking techniques we can permanently change anger reactions giving us better relationships and greater freedom. Fortunately, we can change ourselves with the right tools. When someone pushes our buttons, one response is to react in anger. We can eliminate our buttons and so not react. We can learn to let of anger by eliminating the button that cause it. With no button being pushed, our minds are clear to react appropriately to situations. When you are ready for permanent change call Lisa Webster at 604-992-0629 or email websterconsulting@shaw.ca

*Other benefits of working with Bella include protecting your relationships from further harm. Become skilled at being angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for a precise reason, in a healthy & useful way.
Delyse Ledgard, MA RCC
Anger is necessary to establish our boundaries, to say what is not working. Anger can also be frightening and hurtful or violent. Anger is often one of the hardest emotions to deal with. Anger that is out of control is often anger that is rooted in trauma and powerlessness. It is easy to trigger because the trauma or hurt that you feel is stuck. Therapy works with you to get to the underlying causes and vulnerabilities that you are experiencing. Feeling that you can deal with your vulnerabilities other than by getting angry or raging is the focus of therapy.

When we can't manage our anger, it can control our lives. Dealing with anger doesn’t mean becoming a push-over however. Through an examination of the triggers that set you off, identifying the experiences and situations contributing to your angry behavior, and supportive exercises and discussion, we will help you gain control of this powerful emotion and learn how to distinguish between the healthy anger that can inspire you to make positive changes, and unhealthy emotions that damage your self-image and inter-personal relationships.

Anger is a key human emotion, often mishandled and frequently misunderstood, in the ongoing course of our daily human relationships. On a continuum of possible emotional reactions to stressful experiences, it can either go unrecognized and therefore unresolved or it can trigger deeper, more conflicted relationship difficulties that repeat themselves in a variety of relationship situations. Therapy offers an opportunity to see the adaptive potential in such intense emotional encounters and works to uncover opportunities for proactive behavioral strategies and more importantly a calmer, more thoughtful frame of mind. The key is to inject a capacity for reflection into such reactive moments.
Kathleen Kaulback, RCC, Reg Social Worker, M.A., C.M.
I use education to help people understand themselves and others regarding the EMOTION anger.
I teach strategies to manage this powerful feeling. I help clients to be conscious of what in the old brain sometimes gets triggered and compounds their feelings. I emphasize that mindfulness and practice helps deal with this emotion that plays havoc with relationships.
Patricia Dean, RPC
Anger management is not the elimination of an anger response to situations but it is the ability to express your anger in a healthy, productive manner. Excessive anger expressed in a destructive way can lead to negative consequences in your personal and professional life. Individuals who want to work on anger management skills with me can expect to learn their personal triggers, the situations that are likely to cause an excessive anger response and how to regain control of themselves in those situations.

Are you concerned about anger in your life? Have you noticed how it hurts your partner? Children? Friends, co-workers, even strangers? Is anger making your life less enjoyable? If you said “yes” to any of these questions then it may be time to consider a change. I will help you to transform anger, and to live a life more at peace. You must first commit to examining and changing current patterns so that you can begin to take control. This will involve exploring when anger arises, what triggers it, what happens in your body, how your thoughts are influencing angry responses, as well as using body awareness and mindfulness practices, that will support you to find peace from the inside out.

So what is making me or him so angry ? Thats a question that brings alot of people to seek out a counsellor for some understanding and help. Anger is like an umberalla ..there is allways something undeneath it. In counselling we work hard to figure out what that is. When we understand this we are able to better learn some new and less destructive ways to express our feelings. Managing anger is managing emotions..the great benifit to the client who makes this transition is that they really begin to get their real needs met..and people begin to enjoy being around them a whole lot more.

I believe in the philosophy of "feel the feeling - choose the behaviour". I work with clients to help them understand their anger triggers, find ways to contain their behaviours and find healthier, more effective ways of communicating with those around them. The idea is not to get rid of the emotion but instead understand what is causing it and then decide on the action, as opposed to the reaction contributing to the problem.

Angela understands that anger is a normal feeling and that everyone experiences anger from time to time; however, when anger begins to negatively affect our relationships, our self-esteem, our job/school performance or our role in community, it may suggest it's time to seek counselling support to gain new insight and skills to change unwanted patterns. Angela provides both individual and specialized women and men's group anger management sessions. She provides a safe, non-judgmental environment to increase skills related to self-awareness, communication, assertiveness, self-control, anxiety & stress management. Angela welcomes you to call today for your free consultation.

Have you heard that practicing mindfulness meditation can help with anger management? This is true! Research based evidence connects practicing meditation with a reduction in irritablity and an increase in impulse control. This happens because meditation helps our brain learn how to "pause" for an extra split second when we are stressed. This enables us extra time to choose how we respond. That extra split second can make all the difference in managing an anger problem. Call me to find out how learning mindfulness meditation can help you.

I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) if the anger is stemming from unresolved issues from the person's past. I teach active meditation techniques from the Universal Healing Tao Chi Kung tradition that are quick and easy to learn and apply to angry feelings. The result is that the anger is used as good raw material to create more virtuous feelings, in a similar manner to how coal can be fashioned into a diamond. I use clinical hypnosis to help people train their minds toward constructive approaches for the future.

Managing anger is all about learning how to relax. You cannot be angry or anxious (fear is often lying just below the anger) when you are truly relaxed. Learning how to breathe deeply and slowly is not as easy as you might think. It takes practice, patience and self acceptance. Uncontrolled anger is usually a learned "habit" and it can be unlearned. You can learn what beliefs and attitudes reinforce your angry outbursts and you can learn how to change these through mindfulness and conscious intention. Linda would be happy to help you through this process and has specific experience in the area of Anger Management.

Anger is not an emotion....did you now that?? It came as a surprise to me, since my whole life I just assumed it was. However, instead, anger is a type of communication we choose to use when we are hurt or feel that we are being treated unfairly or taken advantage of. Now this is good news! Methods of communication are a lot easier to change than are the feelings we encounter - although even feelings can be changed. Don't let your ANGER communication style- cramp your relationships or prevent you from getting want you need out of life and from your loved ones. If you want to change, help is a close as a phone call away. Marriage-Works, is focused on helping you find the peace you want
