Anger Management and Counselling in Thunder Bay, ON.

Most anger is based on our assumptions about we think the world should be. Once we realize it is within our sphere of influence to change our assumptions, it gives control over how and when we react. Anger is just energy, which is often sending us a message that our sense of justice has been offended. Lets work with that, and see if you agree with it, and then find ways to manage in the moment to reduce the likelihood of creating a regretful event. A central belief people often have is that other people/other events are "making" them angry. Once you come to understand where your anger comes from, it gives such a greater sense of control over reactions.

Grey Matters International and the work of Kevin J. Fleming, Ph.D approaches issues of anger management in a very humane yet fresh perspective. You see, anger is a normal emotion but it is the valence (intensity) as well as the coupling choice of what one does with this that is the problem. Telling someone to "not" do it or modifying behavior with a trite psychological plan that only breeds a compliant response is not the way to change anger. Brainwave optimization is a new cutting edge technology that allows one to rewire circuitry responsible for reactivity driving the anger.

Are you finding it difficult to manage your anger? Anger is often a result of loosing your sense of control, feeling frustrated, or being blocked from something that is important to you. Psychotherapy can help you develop better self-understanding, reduce stress, cultivate better judgement, develop your communication skills, and increase empathy and connection with those around you.

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.

Everyone experiences anger at times but don’t necessarily recognize that anger is a secondary emotion; a reaction to other underlying emotions. Emotions management is vital to being successful in the world and having the ability to have healthy relationships and achieve our goals. In our sessions together we will explore underlying emotions, their root causes, and learn to identify triggers and more effectively manage emotions and reactions. If you are struggling with anger/emotions management and would like to learn strategies to help you cope better, please book a free consultation.
