Through an Emotionally Focused therapeutic lens, I help you understand what’s happening beneath the surface of anger — the emotions, needs, and pain that often drive it. Rather than trying to suppress or control anger, I will help you listen to it with curiosity and compassion, creating space for real change. Through this process, you can: Understand what your anger is protecting – Often, anger covers up feelings like hurt, fear, or rejection. EFIT helps you uncover and make sense of these deeper emotions. Recognize emotional patterns – Learn what situations trigger anger and how your body and mind respond in those moments.

Anger is a complex emotion because it can occur for a variety of reasons and sometimes it's tough to tell why you feel angry in a given moment. Managing your anger involves understanding not only the situational events that triggers it but also the underlying emotions that end up being expressed as anger. This involves taking a closer look at other feelings (primary emotions) and learning how to cope with them so that they don't present as anger, which is a secondary emotion.

Anger is taboo. So when we get angry there are very few templates available to teach us how to manage it. It can have unimaginable force and scare us. What might it be capable of? The goal is to create safe conditions to explore it and find out what it is telling us. Then we can learn to express it and create conditions where we have ownership.

Managing anger means managing your need to have things your way even if your way seems reasonable to you. It means questioning your sense of entitlement to having your way. Anger can be a strong communication to others that what one is angry about really matters. As an initial response it can be a powerful impetus to change but unless one takes some kind of action following the anger it will only serve to reinforce a sense of powerlessness. Anger can be a way to impose ones will. Sometimes people learn that this works in the short term but in the long term it never really does.

Anger is a commonly misunderstood emotion. It is often masking other emotions or is trying to tell you something useful but in a destructive way. I will help you to understand where your anger is rooted and address it by: teaching ways to react differently, providing coping skills, guiding you in in experiencing other emotions, processing any traumas that might be related, addressing related relationship concerns, or by using other approaches that fit your unique situation and needs.

Anger often stems from feeling so many emotions all at once. You lose a sense of control. You go from 0 to 100 in a blink of an eye. By getting angry you’re attempting to regain control that’s presumed lost. But instead, you’re full of guilt and shame. Feeling angry and reacting in anger, is simply exhausting. I’ll help you learn how to regain control, in a healthy way.

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. In fact, not having the ability to feel anger is a whole other issue. However, for some people, uncontrollable, overly frequent or inappropriate expressions of anger can damage relationships, career success or more. Shift Psychological can help the anger management process by identifying and treating the origins of the anger – the messages about self and the world that cause it. Then, using our unique approach we remove them. This results in an absence of reaction and an appropriate level of calm.
