Anger Management and Counselling in Huron East, ON.

Understanding the triggers of your anger and how you manage your emotions in different settings is beneficial to learning ways to feel as though you are in charge of your actions. Body signals are usually the first thing we notice with anger, and together we can develop a plan on how to recognize your thoughts, feelings and body cues to control the anger and maintain and build healthy personal and work relationships.

Anger is something that gets the best of all of us at one point or another. And sometimes it feels so heavy that we learn to react on it instantaneously, which may hurt ourselves or others around us. My goals are to help you to manage your anger reaction by learning how to channel it through positive and productive endeavors, as well as to explore the history of your feelings of anger to learn where they began. Our work will not only change your anger reactions, but will also aid in decreasing the anger feeling itself.

Anger is the most common coping mechanism that is often misunderstood. Suppressing or avoiding anxiety inevitably leads to being overwhelmed and sometimes emotionally exploding. Instead of suppressing anger, a person should learn how to embrace it, be curious about it, feel it, understand it, and eventually channel it in a healthy and constructive manner. Anger comes from a sense of being misunderstood, ignored or left unsupported and the therapy should acknowledge and explore these areas.
