Anger Management and Counselling in Stoney Creek, ON.

Your brain says getting angry is good. For whatever reason, you've learned that anger is an effective, useful response to situations your faced with in everyday life. As you and I both know, it doesn't always work out that way. I can help you understand your anger, address the root causes, and learn how to manage it effectively in the meantime. Get new solutions, and learn how to reprogram your mind. Modern, effective, no-nonsense counselling in a professional, non-judgemental atmosphere.

Together, we will gain insight into the root of your anger and the purpose that it serves in your life. We will empower you to learn more about yourself when you experience anger and decide how you choose to respond to this emotion. I employ an integrative approach in my practice working alongside clients within an empathetic and supportive dynamic.

Our experiences of anger vary greatly. While I don't offer therapy services for anger management, at Psychotherapy Collective, our online clinic, we have many therapists who offer support for clients seeking help with anger.

If you have had a history of explosive, aggressive outbursts that are out of proportion with the stressors around you, you might benefit from anger management counseling. I can help you decrease the overall intensity and frequency of angry feelings, and increase your ability to recognize an appropriately express angry feelings as they occur. You will develop an awareness of current angry behaviors, clarifying origins of and alternatives to aggressive anger. You will come to an awareness and acceptance of angry feelings while developing better control and more peace.

I use a combination of Narrative, Solutions Focused, and Emotion Focused therapy to help clients address the underlying pain informing feelings of anger. Clients can experience anger getting the way of important relationships or preferred outcomes. Sometimes anger has been an adaptive and helpful response for clients in the past, and one that they want to choose to live with and respond to a little differently now. I aim to help you understand the causes and subsequent triggers in order to better respond when these feelings arise. Book a consult to see if we would be the right fit.

Have you ever felt like you needed to hold a piece of yourself back, fearing that people won't accept you? Do you feel you can’t be your true and authentic self around others? Are you constantly saying yes to things you want to say no to? Wouldn’t you rather feel like you’re in control? Others are more worried about how you act when you're angry than about why you're angry.
