There can be a misconception that Anger is "bad" or "dirty", when in fact it is an emotion like all others. It is true, ANGER can be uncomfortable and lead to other difficulties that have an impact on one's life, relationships and functioning, however, it is not the emotion that leads to such challenges, rather, it is our response and actions that create the difficulty and judgment. In working with me at Growth Counselling Services, you and your challenges with anger will be met with acceptance, compassion, and understanding. We will therapeutically explore it's roots, while using an approach that allows you to make different choices that are in line with your established and personal values

Anger management counseling can help to identify stressors and learn the steps to stay calm in the face of anger. The goal is to handle tense situations in more constructive and positive ways by reducing the emotional and physical arousal that anger can cause. It will provide the tools to take back your life and resolve the triggers that result in unplanned anger reactions.

Anger is one of those big emotions that can be tricky to navigate, especially when you are in the heat of the moment. Difficulty managing anger can sometimes lead to reactions that are hurtful to those that we care about the most. It is important to know that anger is not a bad emotion to experience, we just want to be mindful of how we communicate our anger to ourselves and to others. I hold a non-judgemental and safe space for you to explore your relationship with anger and assist you in working towards displaying anger in a way that is more in line with your preferred way of being.

Anger is something that is often linked to a difficulty in regulating ones emotions and thoughts. Mindfulness integrated Cognitive Behaviour Therapy helps regulate thoughts and emotions so they are not as reactive or uncontrollable. Having increased self confidence and self acceptance leads to increased self control which is also an outcome of anger management therapy.

Anger is just one of the many emotions we all experience. If anger is a problem for you, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) can help manage this difficult emotion and the physiological arousal that accompanies it. Anger management can help you recognize and manage triggers and learn to cope more effectively.

One of the most common complaints I hear from parents is that their child never listens. “No matter what it is they just don’t hear me. I yell and scream and plead but it’s like I am talking to a brick wall.” Most of the time the way the message is delivered is more important than the message itself. Adults and children alike tend to close themselves off from loud and intrusive tones of voice. I help parents understand that perhaps the best way to get their kids to listen and behave is by first changing their attitudes towards the situation. Engaging in a parenting paradigm shift is a great way to start their journey and I can help with this process.

Therapy for anger management can be helpful for both your close relationships and the workplace. Therapy integrates strategies to regulate emotion, tolerate distress, and express frustrations in a manner that is respectful. If your anger difficulties occur exclusively within the context of a romantic relationship, couple’s therapy or therapy with a couple’s therapist can be particularly helpful. New Leaf Psychology Centre also offers anger management therapy for children and youth.

We start by identifying your anger triggers & things you have to be angry about. We identify your anger style, including behaviours you engage in when angry. We identify where anger happens in your body & work to help you start to see clues when your anger is starting to manifest. We help you improve your emotional language and vocabulary. We identify new ways you might react to anger. We will explore together your anger process, including analyzing instances when you were angry, the thoughts you had, the related feelings, & the behaviour you engaged in as a result. We will talk about "anger up, anger down," identifying the things you say to yourself that either increases or decrease anger.

In 30 years of helping people, I have found that how we handle our feelings is a major contributor to our joy, pleasure and success in life, not just in relationships but pursuing our work and our goals as well. Anger can be a powerful motivator or an obstacle in getting what we want. I have an approach for understanding the healthy purpose of anger, and becoming aware of and in control of your natural physiological arousal process so that your angry behavior can stop getting in the way of what you really want. You can obtain the tools and resources to work with this arousal process, giving you more choices and chances to succeed, rather than letting anger take away those choices.

Being angry when something goes wrong, or somebody annoys you is completely normal. The question is: do you like to feel that way? Sometimes the anger is extraordinarily strong, and it can make you lose control. Do you like the consequences of being angry? - headaches, regrets of words you said, and actions you did? Anger is complicated and it often has deep roots. For this reason, it can be difficult to “just control it”. My experience of working with jail inmates shows that digging deeper into the past can help to find connections between trigger events and such strong reactions. When you have better understanding of your anger, the reaction can change and no strong control will be needed.

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 management is a series of preventative and reactionary steps that help us regulate our emotions. While anger management is about executing these skills, the successful implementation depends on a foundational understanding of what anger is and how it operates in one’s life. Without understanding angers unique roots for each individual, anger management techniques become especially challenging to implement. My approach to anger management involves establishing a foundational understanding of anger by examining personal underlying fears and needs. With this foundation set, the individual is able to integrate a personal understanding of anger consistently with strategies and techniques.

Feeling frustrated and like your anger is controlling you? It's okay – anger is normal, but it doesn't have to control your life. In our sessions, we'll work together in a supportive and understanding environment to find healthy ways to manage your anger. By drawing on my background in medicine, psychology, and public health, we can explore what might be causing your anger and develop strategies to deal with it effectively. Imagine expressing your feelings clearly and calmly, feeling less stressed, and having stronger relationships. That's what's possible with anger management. Let's work together to help you feel more in control.

At times, anger may give rise to harmful or counterproductive behaviors. At Atlas Therapy, our focus is on helping individuals mitigate emotional intensity through the teaching of diverse emotional regulation skills and the identification of psychological cues. It's essential to comprehend the underlying frustrations, triggers, and emotions to effectively address anger. Our approach emphasizes fostering self-awareness and providing clients with a versatile toolkit to bolster relationships, enhance overall lifestyle, and promote well-being with confidence.

Many people, especially men, struggle with expressing themselves during emotionally charged situations, conversations or confrontations. Anger is an emotion that many men feel but are challenged to express appropriately in an emotionally-charged situation. For example, expressing too much or not enough anger can create an unsafe situation for self and others. Many men carry long-held beliefs that do not serve them about anger and other difficult emotions. I help men understand their beliefs and associated emotional triggers. Together, we develop strategies that increase their emotional self-awareness and ability to share their emotions with caring, compassion and confidence.

Anger issues can be very destructive to relationships, careers and your health. Even though anger may have initially been used as way to help feel more powerful in the moment, it often leaves you feeling powerLESS in that it often feels like the anger is controlling you rather than you controlling it. It also becomes ineffective as a "problem solving" strategy in the long run. Anger usually hurts more than it helps. I will help you understand you anger - what causes it and why you fall into it so often - and provide the tools and support you need to overcome this issue. Anger may be trauma-based and I take a trauma-informed approach to therapy in general.

Anger is like many emotions we experience - it can get too hot to handle and when it is not dealt with it causes problems for ourselves and others. It can often lead to relapsing into addictive tendencies, having conflict with others and doing and saying things we regret later. At OWA Therapy you will learn to deal with anger by understanding where it is coming from and developing ways of regulating it. Instead of anger calling the shots, we will learn to get in control of anger and become empowered enough to choose how we express it.

Anger may occur for a variety of reasons, resulting from challenging and stressful situations or even due to other emotions such as fear, rejection or frustration. Acting out of anger only serves to increase anger and alienate others. Therapy can help you learn to identify situations and emotions that typically result in anger and find new strategies for reducing their impact.
