Working with Anger

“Anger management therapy that builds control, not pressure”

If anger is costing you sleep, connection, or opportunities, therapy can help you understand what’s underneath, calm your nervous system, and respond in ways you’re proud of.

Is anger showing up like this?

– Snapping at loved ones or colleagues, then feeling guilty

– Feeling on edge or explosive; difficulty letting things go

– Bottling it up until it bursts, or shutting down

– Tension in the body: tight chest, jaw clenching, racing heart

– Conflicts at home, work, or while driving

Anger isn’t a problem to erase—it’s a signal. Therapy helps you hear it clearly and choose what to do next.

How Therapy Helps

– Understand what’s underneath: Map your anger triggers, beliefs, and body cues so you’re not blindsided.

– Regulate your nervous system: Practical tools like breathwork, grounding, and polyvagal‑informed strategies.

– Respond, don’t react: Build communication and boundary skills (from CBT, ACT & DBT) to de‑escalate and repair.
