Anger Management and Counseling in Laurens, SC.

Anger issues, like most issues we have to deal with, are rooted in our past experiences. Anger is a secondary emotion that comes from a primary cause. Many people who have problems with anger have not recognized the source of their anger. If we can locate where anger comes from, we have an opportunity to deal with it constructively. The client will benefit from finding the source of his anger and learn how to manage the anger response by applying Biblical principles to the anger.

Here at New Creations Counseling Center clients will benefit by learning to control their anger with the power of God. Self-control is a fruit of the Spirit and clients will learn how to grow closer to God through a relationship with Jesus Christ and develop a more mature spiritual life. (Galatians 5:22-23). Clients will learn how to submit their will and lives over to the care of Christ and will ultimately find a way to manage their anger.

Anger is a combination of emotions and generally has a specific cause. I find it important to identify cause and use MBTI results to help clients understand what serves them well and what does not in varying situations. I then help them identify strategies for dealing with anger, for asking for what they want and need to thrive/succeed in various environments. I also use faith if appropriate and acceptable, to help them manage relationships and circumstances to their benefit and in respect of others.
