Anger Management and Counselling in Oak Ridges, ON.

Anger can feel intense and difficult to control, often impacting relationships and overall well-being. In our sessions, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to explore the root causes of anger and develop healthy ways to express emotions. Using evidence-based approaches like CBT and Mindfulness, we’ll work on practical strategies to manage triggers, improve communication, and restore balance. The goal is to help you feel more in control, reduce stress, and build stronger, more positive connections.

Anger is a primary feeling that signals when we perceive that our boundaries are crossed. It is a normal, healthy response that cannot be avoided in relationships. Like a compass, it gives us direction in relating to those around us. For best outcomes, it is essential to learn to deal with our anger using productive and mindful strategies. The healthy expression of anger is not hurtful, aggressive or repressed. Rather, it can be used to deal with conflict and set the parameters for negotiating in healthy ways, making room for everyone’s needs.

Where is your anger really coming from? Where do you feel it in your body? What sort of rage takes you over and renders you completely out of control? Anger is a complex emotion that is often misunderstood. It is actually a result of profound sadness transformed into a physical and often violent outburst. Working with anger is not just about coping with the events that bring about the response, but digging deep into the cause of the sadness and resultant anger and rushes out of you often unexpectedly. Let's work together to solve this mystery—with the dual goal to lessen the symptoms as well as to find the deeper cause.

Anger can feel intense and uncontrollable—but it doesn’t have to take the lead. In therapy, we slow things down to understand what’s really fueling your anger. Together, we’ll explore your triggers, patterns, and the deeper emotions beneath the surface. With proven tools and compassionate support, you can learn to pause, reflect, and choose how to respond—instead of reacting on autopilot.

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.

Anger is good; we should get angry when we see some injustice or when someone is trying to violate our personal property lines. In such cases, our anger is what motivates us to take appropriate action. Anger is a good emotion when it gets us moving, but if we let it take root, we set ourselves up for a great deal of potential harm. Learn the right life skills to manage the anger emotion. Everyone can learn these skills. The same as everyone can learn to read or learn to play their favorite sport. As we learn and practice the skills, we become better at whatever we do. Hire me to help you become successful in managing all your feelings, including anger.

When we experience recurrent anger that feels overwhelming and overpowering, we can find ourselves feeling out of control and ashamed. Through self-exploration, we can start to uncover the underlying emotions that are fueling the anger as anger tends to show up when something deeper within us needs attention and processing, often emotions that stem from past experiences, unmet needs, or ignored boundaries. By working to identify the root causes of our anger, we can begin to understand them in a more meaningful and productive way, since processing buried emotions, or unexpressed needs can be incredibly healing. Over time, this awareness can also help to transform how we relate or react to ang

I tailor anger management treatment to the unique needs and life situation of each client. What distinguishes my approach is that I do not simply counsel people on how to act, nor do I gloss over the real source of the problem. This would be akin to putting a band-aid over a gaping wound. I know that the only way to effectively make a permanent and recognizable change is to address the root cause of what is fueling a person's rage, explosiveness, and destructive behaviour. I treat people with sensitivity and compassion surrounding their emotional vulnerabilities and difficulties that cause their disruptive affect, which negatively impacts their lives and work collaboratively.

Anger is often thought of as a negative emotion, but I like to think of Anger as the part of you that loves you and wants to stand up for you when you’ve experienced something “unfair.” Anger does not always make the best decisions about when to stand up for you, so I work collaboratively with clients to identify and explore how anger shows up in their lives, and to strengthen and develop strategies to minimize the impact it has on living the life you want to live. Book a free consultation to learn more about my approach and explore if we are a good fit.

Anger is a natural emotion, but when it becomes overwhelming or hard to control, it can harm relationships, work, and overall well-being.

: 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.

Feeling Anger is a normal response to being wronged in some way or having our boundaries crossed. Anger can help us stand up for ourselves, or we can use it to protect and advocate for others. Anger is healthy and good. But how we choose to express our anger directly shapes what comes next. Does my response hurt or scare myself or someone close to me? Do I feel in control of my actions? Does my response bring me closer to my core values, or is it a barrier between who I am today and who I’d like to be? Learning to manage our response to intense emotions can give us great insights into our motivations, desires, and patterns of living. Call today to start this important reflection work.

Anger is a powerful emotion that, when not controlled or understood, can get in the way of maintaining and building the relationships that are important to us in our lives. So often under those all-encompassing feelings of anger are other feelings that have been buried - perhaps deeper feelings of sadness. Working on issues of anger in therapy is about building an understanding of what our deeper issues are and of working toward coping with our feelings, resolving our issues, and finding more healthy ways to express ourselves in the world.

Anger is a completely normal, often healthy human emotion. But if it gets beyond your control, it can be very destructive in your work and interpersonal relationships and can drastically devastate the quality of your life. Fortunately, anger can be 'managed' which is very different than 'suppressing' it. Unexpressed anger leads to a host of other problems including high blood pressure. However, when we learn how to 'manage' our anger, we can learn to diminish both the emotional feelings and the physiological arousal that anger causes. We can learn to avoid triggers and develop strategies. We can learn how to problem solve, change our thinking and relax our bodies.

Anger can destroy lives, families and relationships. I, as a professional, work on the idea of “he who angers you controls you”. Through a proven user friendly anger management process which incorporates many internal reflections, the client can begin to build more control over his/her emotions as a result more capable of handling difficult situations. Over time, through using these new skills, the client develops more confidence and assurance that he/she can deal with life’s challenges in a more calm and reasonable manner. Clients will also be provided with life long strategies and coping methods.

Anger is a valid emotion, but when it starts to feel like it’s running the show or damaging your relationships, it’s time to pause and explore what’s underneath. Maybe you’ve been reacting in ways you don’t feel proud of, or bottling things up until they boil over. Either way, it doesn’t mean you’re a bad person, it means something deeper needs your attention. In therapy, we’ll work together to understand your triggers, explore the root of your anger, and develop healthier ways to express and manage it. Our goal isn’t to get rid of anger, but to help you gain more control, self-awareness, and confidence in how you respond. You deserve to feel heard, not ashamed, and we’re here to help you.
