Anger Management and Counseling in Cramerton, NC.

Anger is an emotion that is usually covering something else underneath. With an emotion-focused approach, I aid in discovering the sources of anger and how it is affecting you. We can address the source of the anger, gain coping skills for managing emotions, and process the issues contributing to the anger. Through this process you can feel more in control of yourself (rather than anger being in control, or being controlling) both internally and externally. You can come to greater awareness, peace, and freedom that allows for better relationships with self and others.

There is no need to stay trapped in a place of anger indefinitely. Why are you angry? What is the anger masking? It is a symptom of another issue going on in your life? Anger is a natural emotion we all have but can successfully be put into balance with other emotions with the right treatment plan. Stop letting your anger push away the people you love and step back into life.

Many people struggle with anger although it doesn't always manifest in the traditional form. Using a cognitive behavioral approach to find out the underlying causes of a person's anger leads to a better understanding of triggers. This increasing awareness allows a person to become 'unstuck' and open to new ways of expressing anger in a healthy way instead of turning it inward, resenting others or even attacking the people around you through stored anger.

It is impossible to avoid all things in the environment that incite anger such as people, things, and settings. However, you may learn how to control responses and change reactions. There are many causes such as perceived injucices, failures, or frustrations. Or it could even be an outside stressor such as loss of property, that leads to verbal arguments or aggression. It can even cause an increase in depressed mood. There is a clear path to recovery. In therapy, you will discover the triggers of your response and become aware of your emotional state at each step. This can significantly lower your risk of serious health problems.
