Anger Management and Counselling in Chase, BC.

Anger is a natural and, at times, a necessary emotion. However, our society places constraints on the ways we are permitted to express our anger. Additionally, children, adolescents and adults differ in what they need in order to learn how to deal with and express their anger. I offer effective methods to help you learn to release and express your anger in healthy ways that work for you as an individual.

To work with anger we dive into the anger. We discuss past circumstances, current dynamics contributing to the anger, and triggers. We work on awareness of the body (i.e. muscle regulation); feeling and regulating emotions; and using mindfulness or cognitive behavioural therapy to work with the mind. Also, we focus on self-expression and how to communicate in a calmer more productive way.

Do you feel angry a lot of the time? Are you worried you will lose relationships or jobs because your anger is not under control?

I will do this with kindness and respect, and without judgement.
