Anger Management and Counseling in Yanceyville, NC.

I understand that anger is a secondary emotion. That anger is the result of a range of primary emotions such as sadness, anxiety, or loneliness. People struggling with angry behaviors can feel stuck and hopeless. Anger reactions can occur due to specific triggers, or seemingly out of the blue. I help clients identify their anger patterns and break unhealthy cycles that have made personal and professional life difficult. Using a combination of anger management tools, cognitive and dialectical behavior therapies, I guide clients to a life free of anger outbursts and more emotional control.

Clients need to learn how to identify their emotions, as well as how to express, release, manage, and control their anger or angry feelings. Through the use of role plays, sand tray, and other therapeutic worksheets, handouts, exercises, games, and activities, clients will learn that anger is not a negative feeling, but an emotion that indicates something is wrong and changes need to be made.

In addition to those things, I also recognize that anger is a secondary emotion.

I see people who believe that they or their loved one has anger issues. I work with my clients to help them find the source of their anger and then develop the ability to manage their emotions. This is done through the use of coping skills and mindfulness training. I teach people that emotions have energy and if the energy isn't appropriately expressed it will come out in a way that will hurt the client and those around him or her.

All too often anger moves us to do acts we would almost never do. The basis of anger has been found to be fear. Fear of being out of control, fear of not knowing what to do, fear of an unwanted past coming back. Working with individuals, couples, and families, I help them find the behavioral resources to deal with the fear and thereby reduce the anger. The reduction of the anger through processes learned in our therapy, gives the client the power to control reactions to events. That power is the means to manage any anger, present and in the future.
