Our psychologists work with people across Applecross, South Perth and surrounding areas, who are court ordered to attend anger management counselling, asked by friends or relatives or who have come to their own decision that they would like to start feeling happier and less frustrated with life.
Do you sometimes have trouble controlling your temper?
Have you ever become angry and then regretted your actions?
Have you ever lost control of your anger and become violent or abusive?
Do people comment on your anger?
Anger is a normal human emotion and feeling angry is ok. However, it is how we respond to and act upon those angry feelings and emotions that can have a negative impact on your life. Expressing your anger in a violent, abusive and/or negative way can have a detrimental effect on your relationships. Anger does not have to be physically abusive to be destructive.
Anger is a result of frustration and feeling blocked in certain areas of your life. Left to fester, anger can destroy relationships and significantly impact your career. It can have a serious effect on the behaviour of your children and cause serious problems in your day to day life if not managed correctly.
Anger management is a psycho-therapeutic technique used to deploy anger successfully and regain control of your emotional state. As anger is a natural human emotion, it can allow you to realise the underlying cause of your anger and make the changes necessary to regain balance and calm in your life.
Our psychologists use this technique successfully to support those suffering from anger management issues across Applecross, South Perth and surrounding Perth areas. We want to help you regain control in your life.
How do I manage my anger and regain control of my life?
How much of your anger is playing a part in your life? Are you constantly angry with loved ones? The first step to managing your anger is acknowledging that it is playing a role in your day to day life. If you are noticing that your children become irritated when you are short tempered or your friends are taking note of your anger, then it might be time to speak to someone who can help you manage your anger levels through various methodologies, including:
- Keeping an anger journal.
- Seeking feedback from loved ones.
- Manage the situation with humour.
- Recognize the root cause of the issue and where the anger stems from.
When you find yourself in a constant state of turmoil and notice your behaviour is constantly being fuelled by anger, then it is time to seek a counsellor. If you can’t manage your anger alone, then a psychologist or counsellor can help you understand the causes and help you to develop strategies to manage your anger. They can also provide you with the skills to better communicate with your partner and work colleagues.
