Anger Management and Counselling in Discovery Ridge, Calgary, AB.

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.

Do you feel like no one cares about how you feel? Are you feeling like you are "losing it," "fused," "pressured," "angry," "frustrated," "sad," and "stressed?" Are you angry with your partner, spouse, girlfriend or wife? I will help by talking with you about issues that really concern you. Although anger is a primal emotion, frustration, injustice, unfairness, stress, unhealthy behaviours and other issues usually trigger it. By working with me, you will be able to identify “real” issues that are causing you to feel “angry.” I will work with you on how to best address these underlying issues casing anger. Having effective communication skills is vital in dealing with these issues.

I do work with individuals around issues with anger, irritability, and frustration. However, I don't provide "anger management" courses or classes, or structured teaching in this regard. I recognize this can be helpful for some individuals, but prefer to work within the context of psychotherapy to understand and develop personal resources to manage emotional challenges. If you're looking for a structured class or program, I would recommend checking out community resources such as those offered by Catholic Family Services (note - you don't have to be Catholic!)

You did it again. You lost your cool and you blew up. And this time, the consequences are serious. Your job is at risk, your family is hurt, or your partner has finally said, “this is it.” But for some reason, you just can’t seem to stop it. One minute you’re fine, then BOOM – 0 to 100. Know this: there is a path to change. Using evidence-based and cutting-edge techniques, I can help you: cool down from intense stress, communicate with others in a way that inspires both love AND respect, catch anger-flare-ups (before they happen), and have healthy outlets for when they do. Together let's keep your relationships, career, and emotions in harmony. There is an answer to anger.

At Living Well we do not believe in "anger management" alone, as this simply manages symptoms as opposed to finding a cure. There are often very good reasons people are angry, and we believe these reasons need to be attended to for proper treatment to take place. If you choose to work with one of our therapists, the therapy will offer you ways to cope when you're feeling angry, but also resolution to much of the anger you feel. This form of treatment is often far better to see long lasting results.

Just like any emotion, anger can lead us to engage in behaviors we regret later on. As an experienced counsellor working with individuals struggling to manage their anger, I help support people to get to the root of their anger as well as learn coping skills to manage anger as it arises. I'm here to offer a nonjudgmental space to process anger and help guide you in learning new ways to respond to anger and all of it's associated emotions.

We feel anger because we feel that something is not fair, something is not working out the way we thought it should, our boundaries have been crossed, or we feel we have been treated badly, or missed out. Anger can be frustrating if you don't know how to address the underlying issue. I specialize in helping those whose anger is related to social anxiety, isolation, bullying, harassment or lack of important social skills.

Clients can learn to manage their anger by gaining insight into triggers, identifying behavioral patterns, and considering all of the biopsychosocial variables involved. Many people are relieved to hear that they alone are not entirely to blame for outbursts. I help people increase their emotional intelligence, create conditions for successful emotion management, and learn/practice new behaviors.

Anger is a powerful emotion that tells that something needs to change. Anger can be destructive or empowering. Inappropriate expression of anger can disrupt work and relationships. Even though you may have been taught that anger is taboo, bottling up anger is not the answer either. Poorly managed anger can also lead to problems with physical health. Well managed anger can help protect personal boundaries. Often anger masks other underlying feelings that are more painful. Anu helps you to not only manage anger and act assertively, but discover what information anger gives you about what you need or what your anger may be hiding.

I help clients manage anger with cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), a research-based approach in which I am certified. I help clients view anger as a helpful emotion if managed properly. I focus on clients reducing the intensity of their anger internally and expressing the concerns underlying their anger in a constructive manner.

It often feels like Anger arises without warning. Before we know it, we are in the midst of an angry outburst. It doesn't need to be this way! At Menla Psychological Counselling you will learn ways to regain control of your anger, rather than having it control you. The goal of anger management isn't to get rid of anger, it is a valid emotion after all, but rather to stop anger from causing chaos and pain in your life.

Can my anger outbursts be treated with medication? The question should probably not be if it can be treated, but whether it should be treated with medication. Sometimes the anger is a symptom of a disorder, and the disorder needs to be treated. Highly driven men and women sometimes ‘act out’ their depression and have anger outbursts; clearly, they do not need anger management; they need medication for their depression. 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.

Grey Matters International and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, Ph.D approaches issues of anger management in a very humane yet fresh perspective. You see, anger is a normal emotion but it is the valence (intensity) as well as the coupling choice of what one does with this that is the problem. Telling someone to "not" do it or modifying behavior with a trite psychological plan that only breeds a compliant response is not the way to change anger. Brainwave optimization is a new cutting edge technology that allows one to rewire circuitry responsible for reactivity driving the anger.

Anger gets a bad rap overall, but it is a highly functional emotion when used properly. Dysfunctional anger is a consequence of being denied the ability to express our anger; not having our needs met; or continuously having our boundaries disrespected or violated. Anger is always the consequence of something bigger. I would like to partner with you to get to the bottom of your anger, learn what the healthy expression of anger looks like, and establish healthy boundaries to prevent you from having to resort to anger outbursts in the future.

Anger is a normal healthy human emotion. When people allow it to get out of control it can turn destructive, it can lead to problems at work, personal relationships, and the overall quality of life. I like to think of anger using the metaphore of a hammer. You can do a lot of things with a hammer. You can build things and you can tear things apart. The hammer is just a tool just like anger can be a tool. Anger isn't the problem, it's what you do with it. I help people learn the skills they need to use their anger and the underlying hurt and feelings of injustice to make positive choices that lead to positive relationships and experiences.

Anger can be an interesting reaction because often times there are other emotions lingering just under the surface. By learning to identify and express other emotions, as well as working on building a skill set to counteract impulsivity, healthy coping mechanisms can be put in the place of bad habits, giving clients a chance to observe how they have more control than they ever thought possible.

I have had extensive training and experience in working with both anger management and domestic violence issues. I have a fundamental understanding of using cognitive behavior therapy, rational emotive therapy and Duluth model fundamentals for working with power and control issues or anger management. I have also had extensive experience in running groups, assessing anger related issues and working through the underlying issues which lead to problematic anger. EMDR has also been found to be effectively useful for working with unresolved emotional issues leading to anger problems.

In working with anger I assist you to increase your awareness of anger signs, how to calm yourself and handle the situation in a productive way. Some common triggers for making people angry include situations in which we feel threatened, attacked, frustrated or powerless. I use Internal Family Systems Therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, and Emotional Freedom Technique to assist you develop proper coping strategies and get to the roots of your anger by healing past unresolved griefs and traumas.

As with all of our emotions, anger has important information for us about our environment, and if we don't listen to what anger has to say, it is going to get louder. Often, the harder we try to suppress or ignore anger, the more powerful it becomes. In my work with anger I strive to help you get more comfortable with anger so you can become curious about it. The goal then becomes to explore, without judgement, the roots of anger and the underlying emotions that might be presenting as anger.

The goal of anger management is to reduce the feelings and arousal that anger creates. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy can help people to manage their anger, other forms of counselling may help to explore the underlying issues. Knowing how to recognise and express anger in the correct way can help individuals reach their goals, solve problems and handle emergencies – and have their needs met.
