Anger Management and Counseling in Mount Holly, NC.

We all feel anger from time to time. Some of us express it more than others. Some people feel less vulnerable if they express anger rather than the true, underlying emotions (fear, sadness, worry, regret, heartbreak). Some have never truly learned to access and put words to these other emotions. In your therapy with me, you can learn to express how you really feel without resorting to anger and destructive actions. You can discover why you are really angry and learn how to work through that anger to live a happier, more fulfilling, more meaningful live that you truly deserve.

Grey Matters International and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, Ph.D approaches issues of anger management in a very humane yet fresh perspective. You see, anger is a normal emotion but it is the valence (intensity) as well as the coupling choice of what one does with this that is the problem. Telling someone to "not" do it or modifying behavior with a trite psychological plan that only breeds a compliant response is not the way to change anger. Brainwave optimization is a new cutting edge technology that allows one to rewire circuitry responsible for reactivity driving the anger.

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.

Even though feeling angry is ok, it is not ok to express your anger in a way that harms you or those around you. We take a compassionate approach in helping you to understand the underlying causes of your anger and teaching you healthy ways of dealing with your anger. You will learn how prevent the angry outbursts that are damaging your relationships by identifying the triggers to your anger, expressing your feelings and needs to others, training your body to relax and stay calm in upsetting situations, and being able to think more rationally and positively, while respecting yourself and others along the way.
