Anger Management and Counselling in Hope, BC.

Uncontrolled anger destroys lives. You may say “I can’t help myself, or anger isn’t something you can control.” Yes you can’t always control the situation when you are angry or how it makes you feel, but you can control how you express your anger. Anger can be expressed without being verbally, physically or emotionally abusive. Even if you are being pushed to it, you always have a choice about how to respond; it is wise to seek a professional help to find best choices. First we explore the reasons behind your anger; because if you don’t know why you are getting angry, it is difficult to control it. I provide you skills you can learn in a safe environment and practice in your daily life...

It sucks to be angry and loose control of our emotions. Anger can have a devastating impact on the people we love the most. I will support you in addressing the emotions, trauma and pain underneath anger and learn to identify your triggers and patterns. I will teach you tools to address your stress and help you learn to better deal with your emotions. Learning to communicate our needs in a way that will be received is also a part of how I address anger issues.

If a client comes to me with anger management, I would approach them with curiosity and examine the root cause of the anger. Depending on the source of the anger, I would determine what type of approach to use. For example if the anger was caused by a specific event, if the client agrees, we would explore that specific event in detail, as well as practical strategies to manage the existing anger. Approaches I use are Alderian therapy or EFT for treatment.

I have successfully helped many clients over the years with anger management. The reality is we all have anger that sometimes becomes just too much to contain! This obviously could quickly cause us serious ramifications! If you ever get to that point, anger management can be incredibly helpful in many ways. We all have anger but sometimes it increases in intensity which can result in very serious ramifications! Always remember it is very treatable.

Becoming self reflective and mindful of our behavior toward others is a goal worth realizing. Carey can help you to calm your emotions and express your thoughts that are maintaining anger. Through respectful and caring dialogue, you will notice changes of habitual thoughts and impulsive actions. You can hope to develop an understanding of self that is mindful and emotionally stable. Providing a trusting relationship for honesty in conversation, counselling for anger management can be an avenue for greater well-being in all areas of your life.

Anger is a healthy emotion and can be expressed as such if expressed appropriately. Anger can be internalized and go unexpressed and come out other ways or it can be externalized and become problematic or therapeutic. There is a balance, a more appropriate way to express anger. A healthier expression of anger can both define a healthier balanced self and improve your relationships.

In anger management, we start with your story: understanding your concerns, what triggers your anger, and how it's impacting you and your loved ones. Often anger affects relationships, work, or your wellbeing in ways that feel out of control. Together we'll build awareness about the patterns and underlying emotions driving your anger. Sometimes it masks hurt, frustration, or feeling unheard. Then we work on practical strategies: recognizing early warning signs, reframing triggering situations, and developing healthier ways to express feelings. Our therapeutic relationship provides the foundation where you bring knowledge of yourself and I bring clinical perspective. You'll learn to respond rather than react, communicate more effectively, and regain control of your emotions.

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.
