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.

Often an anger management problem occurs alongside depression, or feelings of stress and burnout. I provide Cognitive Behaviour Therapy which is one of the main recommended psychological therapies for depression. Often clients don't feel depressed, but have another area of difficulty such as a physical health condition, ADHD or addictions. I’m experienced in supporting clients who have found previous counselling, psychotherapy or medication to be ineffective or unhelpful.
I have attended anger management training and have worked with clients facing challenges around managing anger and emotions for nearly 15 years. Some of the work includes recognising and understanding anger, identifying triggers, developing coping techniques, reducing anger. Clients also have the opportunity to learn how mindfulness and meditation can help too.
Anger is an important emotion that can give us information about how we respond to stress, how we experience our own sense of self and the messages we carry from our history. We may be explosive or have little relation to anger, thinking it is negative. I will work with you to discuss how to manage anger in your life and also to become clearer about your boundaries so you are also clearer about what is ok for you at work, in relationships and your life in general.
