Anger Management and Counselling in Edmonton, AB.

Many of us have not been taught the tools and strategies that are needed to manage anger in a healthy and appropriate manner. While anger is a natural emotion, which can serve as a helpful signal that something is "just not right," it is often handled in a poor manner. I help people to see the maladaptive patterns and strategies they have been using to express their anger, and then replace these with healthier ones.

Anger management problems emerge from a social system where both genders are taught that expression of anger is inappropriate. Anger is one of seven basic human emotions and is in no way dangerous, unfeminine, or taboo. Explosive anger typically emerges when people attempt to keep their anger from others, holding it inside until they can no longer contain it. My approach is to model and practice graded expression of anger, and to help people modify the point(s) of view from which anger is seen to emerge.

Anger is often a signal—not just a reaction. I help clients understand what’s happening underneath their anger, whether it stems from overwhelm, unmet needs, frustration, or long-standing relational dynamics. My approach focuses on emotional regulation, communication, and pattern recognition, so that anger doesn’t sabotage connection or lead to guilt. You won’t be told to “calm down”—you’ll learn how to respond differently, with clarity and self-respect. Therapy is a place to shift from reaction to choice, and from tension to direction.
