Anger Management and Counselling in Beaverton, ON.

Anger is a widely misunderstood emotion and that allows it to play a dominating role in many lives. When we understand our anger, we begin breaking the spell it has over our lives. I've seen many people overcome their explosive anger in therapy by developing an ability to remain calm when stressed and learn to communicate more effectively in distressing situations. I also offer an Anger Management Certificate to those who complete a 6-session course on anger management skills.

Anger management is about anger understanding first. Why are we angry? I will help clients' seeking assistance with anger by creating a safe space to explore the anger, to process it, and understand it. We can't seek to manage it if we don't understand what is really happening for us. Through pattern exploration of experiences with anger, we can process and navigate the emotion and work together to manage it.

: We all have a right to feel and express our anger and yet sometimes anger can alienate us from the things we care about most, such as friends and family. We can also often feel judged because of the way we express our anger and this can make it harder to manage. In my work with individuals who experience anger, I provide a safe, supportive and non-judgmental space to begin to understand anger and learn new ways of expressing it. Reach out today to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.

I work to teach my clients to both understand the underlying components of anger, and to provide them with strageties to stop it at the very first sign. Understanding what causes the anger is a key component to stopping it. I also look into situational factors such as relationships or work environments that may be contributing to the problem. Spouses, partners, friends, or family members are welcome to join in the process where appropriate, and only if you choose to do so. You will feel more in control, calmer and healthier and happier as a result, and your relationships will improve as well.

Anger is often connected to stress, hurt, overwhelm, or emotions that feel difficult to express in other ways. You may notice yourself reacting quickly, shutting down, or struggling with conflict in relationships. Therapy can help you better understand what is happening beneath the surface while building healthier ways to communicate, regulate emotions, and respond in difficult moments. My approach is supportive and focused on understanding, not judgment.

Anger comes from a core that may be expressed in an entirely different situation with an angry reaction. Trish Joyes' approach is to work with clients in self-awareness and figure out what strategies uniquely assist the client. In doing so, clients will benefit from a more positive lifestyle and better communications skills in their relationships.

Anger is normal and tells you something is wrong in your life. However, some of us need to learn to express our anger differently. Counselling involves learning to identify your unique triggers, and exploring new responses that are healthy to you and those in your life. It is most effective in managing your anger if you can identify causes of your anger so we will look at family history of anger and life experiences. Learning communication skills and healthy boundaries may help you reduce your angry responses and be more relaxed in your life and relationships.

Our experiences of anger vary greatly.

Within therapy, I will help you to develop greater insight into how and why you experience anger and together, we will learn about the patterns that anger is connected to.
