Anger is a valid emotion just like joy or sadness. It gets a bad reputation because of what people do when they are angry, not the anger itself. We all have a choice when it comes to our emotions of what action we are going to take. Let's learn together how to feel and understand your anger without acting it out in a way that hurts you and others.

Unless it is rightful anger - for example in response to cruelty like seeing someone kicking a dog - then anger is actually a cover-up for deeper more painful feelings of sadness or fear or loss. It feels easy to get angry because we have more control. It is an energetic response rather than a passive, helpless response. It is often, also, learned ie copied behaviour. Let´s look at what is going on for you that makes anger your go-to and how to re-channel this misplaced energy into something more helpful.

Anger is a normal emotional response, but it can become a problem when it starts to negatively impact your relationships at work and at home. It is also a response to feelings of hurt, frustration, and fear. I will work with you to identify your unmet needs and help you to develop strategies to meet those needs.

Experiencing anger can be a normal healthy emotion. But it can cause problems if it becomes a default emotion or, the opposite, an emotion that is completely withheld and unexpressed.
Anger can cloud your ability to think clearly, make you act impulsively, make you physically or verbally aggressive and violent towards people or make you distance yourself from others. It can affect you, your family, personal and professional relationships.
Therapy can help with anger as it gives you a place where you won’t be judged and where you can express yourself fully. We would look at links and possible triggers, explore healthy ways to manage anger and find ways to overcome the default of overwhelming emotion, helping you experience life in a healthier way.

In many cases, relational psychotherapy can be particularly useful in overcoming anger issues, particularly on the one-to-one basis that I employ in my private practice.
Professionally, I always recognise that when a client acknowledges that s/he has a possible problem with an emotional imbalance and wishes to actively seek assistance to change, then this is a very positive first step towards solving the anger issues.

In my experience anger is not acontextual. The complexity of an individual's anger needs to be deconstructed and addressed. I design individual programs for individual problems.
