Anger Issues

Anger is a necessary and adaptive emotion and can be a rational response to things that we don’t like or can’t control. However, when it develops into something more problematic and unhelpful, Anger Management Counselling can provide the necessary strategies for control.

“If anger seems to arise too readily or is prolonged, it can damage your relationships and your wellbeing. Anger Management Counselling provides effective strategies to handle these intense emotions. While often seen as a condition impacting men, women can also experience an anger disorder.

Signs you may have an anger disorder include:

• regular excessive irritability or intolerance of others
• anger is your first response to feelings such as disappointment, sadness, frustration or confusion 
• temper tantrums, tirades and rage
• tremors, tingling, heart palpitations and chest tightness
• frequent verbal or physical conflict
• threatening behaviour
• aggression or violence toward people, animals or property
• feeling remorseful after expressing your anger
• not remembering much of what was said during arguments

How we support you

If anger is beginning to control your life or relationships, we can work with you. To begin, we help you identify the reasons why your anger is triggered and understand how you behave when angry. Naturally, we know it can be hard to face these aspects of yourself, which is why we ensure a safe, non-judgemental environment that encourages you to speak about any difficult personal issues. Furthermore, we also know a treatment approach that works for one person won’t necessarily work for another. Therefore, we work with you to decide on a treatment plan which fits your needs and lifestyle.
