Anger Management and Counselling in Port Perry, 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.

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.

I work to teach my clients to both understand the underlying components of anger, and to provide them with strageties to stop it at the very first sign. Understanding what causes the anger is a key component to stopping it. I also look into situational factors such as relationships or work environments that may be contributing to the problem. Spouses, partners, friends, or family members are welcome to join in the process where appropriate, and only if you choose to do so. You will feel more in control, calmer and healthier and happier as a result, and your relationships will improve as well.

We feel anger because we feel that something is not fair, something is not working out the way we thought it should, our boundaries have been crossed, or we feel we have been treated badly, or missed out. Anger can be frustrating if you don't know how to address the underlying issue. I specialize in helping those whose anger is related to social anxiety, isolation, bullying, harassment or lack of important social skills.

Anger is one of the destructive mental health problems that cause devastating consequences in a person’s life.

I use evidence-based modalities, such as Mindfulness, CBT, ACT, and talk Therapy. I have years of experience in anger management to help identify triggers for anger and treatment that restores healing. Please, you need to seek help and never allow anger to ruin your health. We can help!
