Anger Management and Counselling in Rockland, ON.

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. Together with cognitive and behavioral strategies we develop new and healthy coping methods to manage these emotions more productively.

There are many things that can spark anger and it can be difficult to get a hold when anger takes over. It can also be difficult to understand why certain situations may lead us to feel angry and propel us to act in ways that may not be helpful to ourselves or to the relationships we are part of. Within therapy, I will help you to develop greater insight into how and why you experience anger and together, we will learn about the patterns that anger is connected to. I will also help you to develop tools to more safely connect with anger so that you can experience more fulfilling relationships with yourself and others. Contact me or book a free consultation if you wish to learn more.

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.

Anger issues often run deep within a person's soul. They can be connected to past hurt, injustice, betrayal or even disappointment. First and foremost, I believe it's important to uncover and resolve the core issues that have caused the anger. Doing so will also help you gain internal awareness which will allow you to begin building the necessary skills to respond to life's difficulties, rather than react. Learning to respond is the process of calming your emotions enough to think, pray and choose your behaviour. Reacting is simply being dictated by your unresolved issues, a lack of awareness and the necessary tools. I can help you resolve you anger rather than simply manage it!

Anger can feel overwhelming, unpredictable, or difficult to control. It often masks deeper emotions like hurt, fear, or powerlessness. If anger is straining your relationships or impacting your wellbeing, we can work together to explore its root causes, understand what it’s trying to communicate, and develop healthier, more constructive ways to manage and express intense emotions.

I have spent hundreds of hours working with clients who struggle with managing anger/rage. There are specific, step-by-step techniques that can be taught, that are very effective at helping people deal with this issue. Based on reports from clients I have worked with, I have found that if clients are committed to their process, most people make significant improvement within 6-12 sessions. Drawing from polyvagal theory, AEDP and mindfulness techniques, clients can learn healthy ways to manage and experience their anger.

Anger is a potent and powerful emotion but can have a devastating effect on our relationships and ourselves. Let's work together to master that energy and have it serve you instead of being victimized by it. A psychosomatic approach that deals with the body, as well as the mind will help reveal and explore the underlying sources of anger and empower you to make better choices when it shows up.

Anger can feel like an emotional experience that we have no control over. In therapy, you can explore the root causes of anger and how it impacts your life, your experiences, and your relationships. You can learn skills to effectively respond to anger, ground yourself when feeling angry, and de-escalate when anger is impacting your relationships. I work with individuals, couples and families.

Helping clients understand their anger - what is triggering them, where this anger is stemming from and healthier ways to cope with the pain and hurt often found behind angry behaviours. Explore various strategies to communicate their emotions (whether it be anger, frustration, pain, hurt, suffering, etc) in a healthier way to those around them. Helping clients understand the impact of their anger and their behaviours on those around them (whether it be in the workplace, with family or friends).

We can't change how others drive in heavy traffic or how others can just be plain inconsiderate. Anger is a part of life. Rage however needs attention. If you find yourself feeling anger beyond what you feel is appropriate for a situation or feel rage when hurt or loved ones are hurt there is help available. Let's explore what all this means for you. Your triggers and your reactions and work with evidence-based techniques to make your life better.

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.
