Anger Management and Counseling in Fort Mill, SC.

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.

Even though feeling angry is ok, it is not ok to express your anger in a way that harms you or those around you. We take a compassionate approach in helping you to understand the underlying causes of your anger and teaching you healthy ways of dealing with your anger. You will learn how prevent the angry outbursts that are damaging your relationships by identifying the triggers to your anger, expressing your feelings and needs to others, training your body to relax and stay calm in upsetting situations, and being able to think more rationally and positively, while respecting yourself and others along the way.

Many people struggle with anger although it doesn't always manifest in the traditional form. Using a cognitive behavioral approach to find out the underlying causes of a person's anger leads to a better understanding of triggers. This increasing awareness allows a person to become 'unstuck' and open to new ways of expressing anger in a healthy way instead of turning it inward, resenting others or even attacking the people around you through stored anger.

Anger is an emotion that is usually covering something else underneath. With an emotion-focused approach, I aid in discovering the sources of anger and how it is affecting you. We can address the source of the anger, gain coping skills for managing emotions, and process the issues contributing to the anger. Through this process you can feel more in control of yourself (rather than anger being in control, or being controlling) both internally and externally. You can come to greater awareness, peace, and freedom that allows for better relationships with self and others.

There is no need to stay trapped in a place of anger indefinitely. Why are you angry? What is the anger masking? It is a symptom of another issue going on in your life? Anger is a natural emotion we all have but can successfully be put into balance with other emotions with the right treatment plan. Stop letting your anger push away the people you love and step back into life.

As an anger management counselor, I can help equip you with self-soothing skills which will enable you to manage your anger the moment it arises. By offering a compassionate and caring approach, I will seek to collaborate with you and understand your story. I can also help you process the negative emotional memories tied to the anger and understand the present situations and events which trigger your anger. Please feel free to reach out to me and I will try my best to meet with you right away!
