Anger Management and Counseling in Wyoming, MI.

When our anger needs managing, it is usually because we are deeply angry about things we might not even be aware of. Everything may feel like it's about the current moment or the current relationship, but it's really about some unresolved anger from the past. Our minds imagine we can't handle what we are really angry about, so it takes in out on something or someone else. In therapy, we make it safe to get angry with what really counts. We help resolve that anger so it no longer needs an outlet. Let's not just "manage" your anger. Let's resolve it.

Anger can often feel so overwhelming that it causes you to do things you later regret. Not knowing what came over you, there are many unanswered questions: why do I keep doing this? why can't I stop myself? Sometimes, alcohol, substances, or other addictive behaviours lead to this anger, making it more difficult to control. As an addiction counsellor, I help clients overcome addictions leading to anger issues so they can regain a sense of control, rebuild relationships, and gain clarity about how to move forward. If you are unsure where to start, send me a message and I can help. If I'm not the right fit, I can connect you to the right support so you can start gaining back control, today.

Anger management therapy has proven to be effective for many people. It can help you learn how to express your feelings in a healthy way, cope with stress more effectively, improve your relationships, and prevent unhealthy behaviors like misusing drugs or alcohol. If you have recently found yourself struggling with anger issues, you can learn better anger management skills through individual anger management therapy programs in Michigan.

I find anger management does not pop up with no rhyme or reason. I like to give my clients tools to express their anger in a positive and safe way to allow them to feel as though they are not repressing any intense emotion. As the client becomes more comfortable in the process, we will be able to examine any past issues the anger may stem from. In order to really resolve anger issues, we will need to target exactly when the problem started, and work through the emotions of that time.

At the core of all anger is fear. It is my goal to help my client discover that fear and express it in a way that is not harmful to self or others. How I approach anger management is though humor and education. It is not an easy topic and not everyone understands the complex emotions that anger can provoke in self and others. I do my best to educate and explore the issues.
