Anger is a tough emotion. It feels so real and raw in the moment, that we forget that it’s simply a defense mechanism. As human beings, we like to feel powerful. Vulnerable emotions are dangerous. Sadness, fear, jealousy, hurt, and betrayal make us feel weak, so what do we do? We try to look strong, scary, and powerful. Anger is the most efficient way to do this. If we can sit with our more vulnerable feelings and care for them, we are able to see our anger evaporate. We’ll work together to create a safe space for you to explore what’s hiding beneath your anger. The freedom that comes with vulnerability is where your true power lies.

Anger isn't a primary emotion--It's an animal with its leg caught in a trap. It's a reaction to feeling threatened. I don't want to manage people's anger--I want to reduce their anger by minimizing that experience of feeling threatened. In my many years of counseling, I've found that almost all of our feelings of threat arise from the time of our life when we were most vulnerable--that is, our childhood. If you come to me for assistance in dealing with the anger that is hurting you & hurting the people around you, then I will want to dive into your memories as a little one, healing those wounds, clarifying those distorted thoughts, enhancing your sense of your current strength & competency.

Dr. Nedra Voorhies, LPC believes that anger is frequently misinterpreted as negative emotion rather than a source of healing energy. She believes that anger can be perceived as positive energy and can be put to use as a resource for increased health and vitality. Anger can be an incredible gift to affirm life goals and direction.
