Anger Management and Counselling in Thunder Bay, ON.

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.

I help men make sense of and manage their anger. Typically there is so much more to the story than just stressed & irritable. Therapy helps you dip below the surface to reign it in for the long-run. With anger it's like something hits you and away it goes. A run-away train or a room you can't escape no matter how much you want to. It's frustrating to not feel control over it. People in your life certainly feel frustrated too. This only causes you to further push them away. Anger can look like yelling, or intimidation; an explosion of emotion directed at who ever happens to be there. It can also be held inside though, sometimes even directed towards yourself with harsh words or other harm.
