Anger Management and Counselling in Balzac, AB.

Frustration and anger can be especially confusing when they seem to surface "out of nowhere" or feel disproportionate to the moment. For some adults, this pattern traces back to undiagnosed ADHD, autism, or executive functioning difficulties that make emotional regulation genuinely harder, not a matter of willpower. I'm a Registered Psychologist at Solasta Counselling in Calgary, and I conduct comprehensive assessments that can identify these underlying contributors, helping clients move from self-blame toward a clearer, more compassionate understanding of how their brain works. That clarity often becomes the starting point for real change, through therapy, coaching, or strategies suited to how someone actually thinks.

When anger keeps getting the better of you, it costs you relationships, work, and peace of mind. It is possible to change that. I use cognitive behaviour therapy, mindfulness meditation, hypnotherapy, and other proven methods to bring your overall arousal level down so you can respond instead of react. Let us bring some calm back into your life. I have been a psychologist since 1986, and I know how to help. I am based in Calgary and see clients across Alberta, Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick by secure video.

The aftermath of that is guilt and shame, and not liking the person you've become. Well, I see the person underneath the anger. In our work together, we'll look beyond the reaction to understand what's leaving you so drained, what your anger is trying to communicate, and how you can respond differently without constantly feeling bad

Anger can be a healthy response to negative treatment or events. We’ve all gotten angry and it can help to communicate to others that we’re not okay with something.

The elderly may also have anger outburst that are a symptom of a disorder, and then a pharmacological intervention is justified. Let Dr. Mervin (Paraklesis Counselling) come alongside you to help you with anger management and to discern whether pharmacotherapy is appropriate.

Let's unpack, understand and learn to work with it not against it.. Together.
