Anger is complex. It often masks deeper pain—like grief, shame, fear, or powerlessness—and most of us were never taught how to handle it. Whether your anger feels explosive or quietly simmering, I offer a non-judgmental space to explore it with curiosity and care. Together, we’ll build awareness, emotional regulation, and healthier responses that don’t leave you drained or ashamed. With warmth, structure, and a touch of humour, my goal is to help you transform anger into insight, strength, and choice.

: 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 offer supportive anger management counselling in a non-judgmental environment for individuals who want to understand and better manage their anger. Together, we explore the triggers and underlying emotions behind anger while building practical tools for calm, clear communication, and emotional regulation. Drawing from CBT, mindfulness, and relational approaches, I help clients respond to difficult situations with greater control, patience, and healthier ways of expressing their needs.

Anger is a secondary emotion that is often referred to as a bodyguard emotion. It seconds the primary emotions that are often more vulnerable. Anger has multiple functions but there are times when it does its job too well that instead of communicating unmet needs, it breaks down relationships instead. Our work will focus on building a bridge between how you experience emotions and how you express/communicate them. We will work on recognizing signs, triggers, enablers, and soothers of anger. The goal is always to regulate intensity, communicate the needs behind the emotion, and reduce conflict in personal and professional relationships.

I see anger as a protective signal from a nervous system under strain, not a personal failing. In our work, we slow things down so you can understand what’s beneath the intensity—stress, hurt, boundaries, or unmet needs. I offer a steady, non‑judgmental space to explore these patterns, build regulation and clarity, and create more choice in how you respond. Over time, anger becomes less overwhelming and more of a guide toward what matters, helping you move through daily life with greater steadiness and confidence

Together, we’ll explore healthy ways to express and manage anger, build emotional regulation skills, and strengthen your ability to respond—rather than react—in moments of stress or conflict.

I help clients unlock the negative cycle that anger and its accompanying behaviors may cause. In an empathic and supportive environment I help the client understand where the underlying feelings and thoughts originate and loosen the stranglehold that this cycle previously held.

It may take someone close to us to let us know that our temper has gotten out of hand.
