Anybody can become angry – that is easy, but to be angry with the right person and to the right degree and at the right time and for the right purpose, and in the right way – that is not within everybody’s power and is not easy. – Aristotle
A Network of Support
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by negative thoughts, intense emotions or behavioural patterns that hinder your ability to live a calm and peaceful life, it’s time for healthy change. Having a safe space to explore what shapes your anger is incredibly beneficial in making those first steps towards transformation.
At Village Grief Counselling, I offer personalized professional help that is centred around helping you process and manage the feelings of anger, frustration, shame, guilt and fear. By holding space for you in a non-judgemental manner, you are able to free yourself from these obstacles in a healthy, productive way. I give you the tools to understand and manage your anger, find constructive ways of expressing your feelings and understanding your emotions.
The Cost of Anger
Anger is an important and protective emotion, however, it comes with a cost. Anger affects our physical health (increased blood pressure, heart disease, etc.), it can cost you your job, relationship break-ups, and even legal ramifications.
Reaching a Turning Point
Anger is a very important emotion – it is a secondary emotion. Underneath anger is pain, sadness, fear, shame, and regrets, and together we will explore the history and experience of anger in your life. We will work together to recognize the common triggers. I will teach you tools you can use to recognize early signs of anger, how to disengage from anger while having compassion for your unmet needs that lead to that anger. Yes, we are not done. I will teach you effective communication in order to meet your unmet needs. With time, you will see that this will create ripples of change that transcend your relationships, career and overall quality of life.
