Anger Management and Counselling in Bradford West Gwillimbury, ON.

Often our present-day symptoms including anger and mood issues are connected to not being in tune with our needs, desires and wants. With increased self-awareness we can better understand our concerns, practice self-care and set boundaries, where needed. I use Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) which is an approach where human emotions, if discovered and worked through, can help improve emotional states and relationships. In addition, Mindfulness can be helpful to increase awareness by paying attention, on purpose, without judgement to our thoughts in the present moment. When we are mindful, we can reduce anger and stress, enhance sleep and improve mood

Our experiences of anger vary greatly. While I don't offer therapy services for anger management, at Psychotherapy Collective, our online clinic, we have many therapists who offer support for clients seeking help with anger.

Anger management counseling can help to identify stressors and learn the steps to stay calm in the face of anger. The goal is to handle tense situations in more constructive and positive ways by reducing the emotional and physical arousal that anger can cause. It will provide the tools to take back your life and resolve the triggers that result in unplanned anger reactions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is proven to be effective in managing mood such as anger. Using CBT and other helpful interventions, I can assist you to manage your anger. The goal is not to get rid of all anger, the goal is to manage and tame anger. If we can't control our anger, it can cause serious health issues, ruin relationships and careers, get you into trouble with the law, etc. I have developed an anger management workbook that can systematically guide you in your journey of recovery. You will feel a great sense of control and calmness.

Understanding the roots of your anger can go a long way to empowering you to respond in ways that best suit the situation, leaving you feeling satisfied and content, rather than reacting in ways that feel the most relieving in that moment but leave you regretting your behavior, long after the event. I can help you learn to express your feelings more appropriately and take back the power that anger has had over you in the past.

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.

If you are reading this profile, you are probably concerned about your anger issues and want to seek help. You are likely feeling frustrated, irritated and angry most the time.

Anger can be destructive and negative, however like other emotions, it is a normal and healthy emotion that try to draw our attention to the underlying issues that we need to work on. With over 12 years of clinical experience, I humbly want to support you to feel better and make the needed changes. I offer integrative and evident-base approaches to meet your needs. Please don't hesitate to reach out and get the help you need now.

Anger is a common, I'd say necessary function, for it helps us right wrongs, & protect ourselves and others. Like the saying goes, "Good fences make good neighbours", and anger is the energy to make such fences. Sometimes though, anger can seem out of control, or inapropriate. I help you to understand your anger, and to use it constructively for bettering your life, and the lives of others.

Anger can be a strong emotion. When used in an unproductive way, anger can harm us (i.e. self-criticism, self-injury), and harm our relationships (i.e. blaming, criticism, aggression, inflexibility). However, when this feeling is used in a healthy way, it can give us some important information about boundaries, needs & expectations. It can also help to motivate us to make necessary changes. In therapy, we can work together to get a handle on anger and harness that energy in healthy, helpful ways.

I offer compassionate, evidence-based support for managing anger in healthy, constructive ways. Using therapies like Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness, I help you understand the root causes of your anger and develop practical skills to regulate intense emotions. Together, we create a safe space to explore triggers, challenge unhelpful patterns, and build healthier communication and coping strategies. My goal is to empower you to express anger effectively, reduce conflict, and foster greater emotional balance and well-being in your relationships and daily life.

DBT can be a game changer for clients wanting to regulate difficult emotions. A comprehensive and integrated model that uses skills training techniques to support individuals in achieving emotion regulation, stress tolerance, achieving mindful practices and improving interpersonal relationships. DBT has initially been proven in the treatment of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), clients at risk of suicidality, and para-suicide behaviours. However, this treatment can also help clients with anxiety, depression, and other presentations that formed roots from invalidating environments.

Feeling angry? Frustrated? Feeling at a loss of how to manage your emotions? I can definitely help you in making sense of it all and provide you with some effective strategies. I've ran anger management groups,onsite workplace conflict resolution, and have helped hundreds of people individually with issues like work place conflict, toxic relationships, family conflict, grief and anger, and many other life issues.
