Anger Management and Counselling in Mattawa, ON.

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.

Anger is a common stage of grief/loss and often occurs together. My approach to helping clients work through these emotions is by combining grief therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and relaxation strategies. By recognizing how anger can mask deeper felt emotions such as helplessness and or sadness; we can begin to understand & process your loss, find meaning, and develop self care as well as coping skills.

Together, we will gain insight into the root of your anger and the purpose that it serves in your life. We will empower you to learn more about yourself when you experience anger and decide how you choose to respond to this emotion. I employ an integrative approach in my practice working alongside clients within an empathetic and supportive dynamic.
