How anger counseling works here
We start with your pattern: what sets you off, what happens in your body in the seconds before you lose it, and what you're really reacting to. Then you learn to catch anger earlier, calm your body down, and choose a response. You'll get concrete strategies you can use the same week.
What's underneath
Anger is usually a cover for something else: stress, shame, feeling disrespected or powerless, or old experiences that taught your nervous system to fight first. We use CBT and DBT skills for the moment-to-moment work, and trauma-focused approaches like EMDR and Accelerated Resolution Therapy when past experiences are driving the reaction.
What to expect
No lectures. A place to be honest about what's actually going on, and a therapist who won't flinch. Understanding your own pattern is usually the turning point.
