Dr Aneliya Gonsard
Psychologist, DClinPscy, MSc, BA
Anger is an integral and important emotion. I believe it to be a myth that some people do not or should not get angry. Problems arise when we have not developed a healthy relationship to this particular emotional state. If angry feeling are denied and repressed, psychological difficulties of all kinds can occur. In other instances anger comes at us and at others like a tsunami - in the form of destructive aggression - towards self and/or others.
If any of this sounds familiar and you would like to access a space where you can think and talk about it further, please get in touch.

Anger is not the problem. It can be a healthy emotion when it is felt, noticed and expressed safely.
when people struggle with anger, it is because it was suppressed or allowed to express it in the past, the unresolved emotions therefore remains stored in the body and can be triggered by present emotions. Together we uncover the root causes beneath the anger helping you develop awareness, emotional regulation and deeper connection with yourself.

Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage, Couples, LMFT. Psy.D. Trauma-Focused CBT
Anger is a human emotion. Anger management involves boundaries for self and for others. Often times, when we feel anger, it is our own personal emotion which can be directed to someone else, often tied to a person very close to us. It is important to reduce the hostility, finding a calmer direction as anger can often be faced with heart issues as well as, blurring thoughts causing self internal pain .

Dipak Jilka - Psychotherapist & Counsellor
Therapist, Psychotherapy & Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA) – PACFA Reg. Clinical 26570
Anger is often viewed as a bad and taboo emotion in our society. However, I believe anger is a very useful and important emotion to be explored. Anger is not merely as a symptom to suppress, but as a meaningful, often "daimonic" (inner force, neither good nor evil) reaction to life’s limitations, lack of meaning, or loss of freedom. I invite you to come and explore your unique experience of anger and find the deeper meaning for you. If you are challenged with managing your anger, I will work with you on approaches to regulate you anger and to suppress it.

Road rage, plane rage, even art-gallery rage (when an exhibition is too crowded) are becoming all too familiar terms and are just some of the forms that over-the-top anger can take in modern-day life. Excessive anger can have an obvious trigger or else seem to occur out of the blue; and it can ruin lives, as work and relationships suffer. Excessive anger always results from stress and essential emotional needs not being met. That’s why the human givens approach, which focuses on helping people in distress find healthy ways to meet their emotional needs, is so successful.
The ability to get angry is natural. It is part of the ancient ‘fight or flight’ survival mechanism, which evolved to help our long-distant ancestors survive when, faced with attack from wild animals or invading tribes, they either had to stand up for themselves or flee. The pulse races, adrenalin surges, breath gets fast and shallow, blood surges into the muscles of the legs and arms and the body gets flooded with stress hormones, all so that we are ready to take action if we decide to act aggressively to ward off something or someone. Once action has been taken, the feelings subside.
But, today, there are far fewer occasions when threat is as real and physical as just described. If we get frustrated or feel angry with the boss, we may have to keep those feelings to ourselves, which leaves them circulating with no obvious way of being discharged. Or we may become more and more wound up by little annoyances that build up over the day until we reach a point when, over something seemingly trifling, we snap. There are many other circumstances that can lead us to have lower tolerance for irritations – for instance, overtiredness, feeling ill or hungry, hormonal changes, chronic pain or addictive cravings.
Sometimes people have a tendency towards anger because of chronic low self-esteem, which usually stems from abuse or neglect during childhood. As adults, they may never feel good or worthy enough and tend to lash out if they perceive themselves as slighted in any way. Mild brain damage can cause a loss of impulse control and aggression. And people on the autistic spectrum are often more prone to angry outbursts because of their difficulties and frustrations in trying to relate to other people and make sense of the social world.
More often than is realised, aggression is triggered by fear and sometimes it is a long-forgotten fear. For instance, a man who, as a child, was locked in a tiny dark space under the stairs as a punishment, may lash out, seemingly inexplicably, at his wife when she wants him to check the space under their stairs for damp. This is because an ‘alarm system’ in our brain, called the amygdala, accesses our emotional memories and, on the basis of previous experience, alerts us to anything that may represent a risk. Because the stair cupboard experience was so traumatic and frightening, it stays ‘live’, causing the man to experience terror all over again, usually without knowing why. Sometimes, too, repeated and seemingly inexplicable anger outbursts stem from ‘pattern matching’ to a shocking situation in childhood, when anger was felt but, at the time, suppressed.
Fortunately, people can be helped to deal with their anger, whatever its cause. Human givens practitioners will show people how to calm themselves down quickly (this is essential, as high emotional arousal makes us stupid, stopping us from listening to reason); encourage them to take exercise (doing enjoyable physical activity is a great way to discharge accumulated stress); and help them to examine and change their self-talk – having hostile thoughts only harms us – and to look at situations from other people’s perspectives as well as their own.
Simple, effective techniques can be used to resolve anger outbursts arising from incidents in the past, so that these cease to occur in the future.
Finally, human givens practitioners will help people explore what needs are not being met in their lives, which may be fuelling anger – for instance, a lack of a sense of achievement or status or control or connection with others may cause feelings of inferiority and hostility. Experiencing uncontrollable or excessive anger always means that something is not working well in a person’s life. No one is naturally an ‘angry’ person; they are just, temporarily, overcome by anger and can learn how to cease to be its victim.

Will Salter - Connected Man Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA member, L2 IFS trained, Diploma of Counselling
Anger isn’t something to control or push away — it’s a part of you that’s trying to get your attention. It carries important signals, not flaws. When we approach anger with curiosity and compassion, we can discover what it’s protecting and what it truly needs. Together, we’ll explore the parts of you beneath the anger, so you can respond with clarity and choice instead of reacting automatically. You don’t have to stay caught in old protective patterns — these parts can soften, and you can transform anger into understanding, healing, and empowered action.

If you suffer with Anger issues and struggle to manage them, one of the best therapeutic approaches for this is Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). This therapy effectively helps individuals recognise the link between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours that contribute to their anger. Research indicates that CBT yields better outcomes in managing anger compared to no treatment at all. CBT utilizes several techniques to enhance emotional regulation, thereby giving you symptomatic relief. We will work through these techniques together, and may include: Mindfulness and relaxation exercises, Cognitive Restructuring and Stress Inoculation Training.

Ashley Horsley
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, MA, Post MA Dip, BACP Accred
Unless it is rightful anger - for example in response to cruelty like seeing someone kicking a dog - then anger is actually a cover-up for deeper more painful feelings of sadness or fear or loss. It feels easy to get angry because we have more control. It is an energetic response rather than a passive, helpless response. It is often, also, learned ie copied behaviour. Let´s look at what is going on for you that makes anger your go-to and how to re-channel this misplaced energy into something more helpful.

Jason Fletcher Hypnotherapy and Coaching
Hypnotherapist, FNCIP SQHP
Anger management work focuses on understanding what sits beneath strong or sudden emotional reactions rather than trying to suppress them. I support people in exploring how anger developed as a response to stress, boundaries, or earlier experiences, and how it affects their relationships and wellbeing. Sessions help build steadier emotional regulation and more considered ways of responding, in a calm and respectful way.

I believe in emotional management as opposed to anger management. Its important to understand that anger is often linked to other emotions & can be triggered by these linked emotions, as well as value based conflicts. I have extensive experience in working with people in this area.

Julie Jenner
Counsellor/Therapist, BA(Hons), NCS Senior Accredited
Anger is often a symptom of deep, unresolved feelings of hurt and pain. This can come out seemingly randomly, or feel bigger than the situation calls for and can leave you feeling confused, misunderstood, alone and so much more. By talking through behaviours you recognise now, we can look at root causes to see if we can find the reasons behind it. Facing anger can feel a bit intimidating, and seem to go against who you are, and by making sense of it you can bring about understanding and better ways of expressing your feelings.

Anger Management & Emotional Regulation - Complimentary Consultation
Do you find that anger, frustration or emotional overwhelm sometimes take over before you have time to think?
For many people with ADHD and other neurodiversity, emotions can feel intense and immediate, making it harder to pause, regulate reactions and protect important relationships.
Through a neuroscience-informed and strengths-based approach, I coach clients understand the connection between ADHD, impulsivity and emotional regulation, and develop practical ways to respond rather than react.
Together we work on building emotional awareness, steadiness and healthier patterns in communication and relationships.
Book a complimentary consultation to explore whether this approach is the right fit for you.
