Dave Vass
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor: RCC
While there are alot of anger management approaches out there that are focused on quieting the emotion, I believe it is far more effective to help provide the client with psychotherapeutic tools that can not only help increase awareness to the triggers, but learn how to channel the important relational energies of anger into more constructive behavior.

Aliya Amarshi
Registered Psychotherapist, PhD (Sociology)
I support clients in understanding and working with anger as a valuable emotional signal rather than something to suppress or fear. Through parts work, somatic awareness, and mindful reflection, we explore what’s underneath the anger—often unmet needs, boundaries, or past wounds—and develop tools for responding rather than reacting.

Anger Mgmt
Bill Arbuckle
Therapist, MCP, RCC
Anger usually gets a bad reputation, but it's rarely the real problem. It's almost always protecting something underneath, hurt, fear, a boundary that keeps getting crossed, or a need that isn't being met. I work with people to understand what their anger is actually about, so it stops feeling like something to suppress or be ashamed of and starts becoming useful information instead.

Carol D.B. Whaley Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Anger is a very legitimate and important emotion. We need anger, to help us set boundaries, honour our dignity, and heal from deep wounds. It is an emotion we need to honour within ourselves while finding ways to express it so we don’t hurt ourselves or anyone else.
In my practice we start by honouring the anger, even if we don’t understand where it comes from.
A lot of our anger is built up inside of us from childhood experiences or life events where we felt helpless and not in control. In therapy we get to the source of the anger and release the emotion safely allowing us to connect to the emotions the anger was being used to cover.

Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
Anger is often a signal that something deeper is happening beneath the surface, such as stress, hurt, frustration, or unmet needs. Together, we'll explore the underlying causes of your anger, identify triggers, and develop healthier ways to regulate emotions, communicate effectively, and respond rather than react. My goal is to help you build greater self awareness, strengthen your relationships, and express your emotions in ways that are calm, confident, and constructive.

Romana Hrivnakova
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
I view anger not as a character flaw, but as a protective survival strategy that is often trying to signal a boundary or manage deep-seated pain. Drawing on over 15 years of experience in high-intensity mental health settings, I help you move beyond traditional 'control' techniques to understand the 'parts' of you that feel the need to erupt or protect.
By exploring the roots of this frustration and healing the underlying wounds—often shaped by early relationships—we work to transform reactive anger into a healthy, grounded sense of self-advocacy and emotional calm.

Adam Manz
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC), MCP
Anger can be a powerful signal that something deeper needs attention—often tied to stress, unmet needs, or old patterns of coping. In therapy, we’ll work to understand what’s fueling your reactions, strengthen emotional awareness, and build practical tools for calming your body and communicating more clearly.

Nightingale Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, MSW
At Nightingale Counselling, we take a modern, evidence-based approach to anger that goes beyond traditional "anger management," because the goal isn't simply to have less anger, but to develop anger mastery: the ability to express the right amount of anger, proportionately and appropriately, in response to what a situation actually calls for. We recognize that dysregulated anger can show up in two directions, whether as too much, leading to volatile relationships, workplace struggles, and loss of self-trust, or too little, leading to resentment, difficulty setting boundaries, and needs going unmet. Whether you find yourself frequently overwhelmed by anger or rarely able to access it at all, our therapists are skilled at identifying the underlying patterns and helping clients build the awareness and choice that lead to lasting, meaningful change.

Dustin Hogan - Men's Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, RTC
Being able to regulate your emotions is a skill you can learn just like any other skill. It does take practice, but with the right tools and support, you can shift from overwhelming expressions of anger to a more balanced and appropriate response to life's challenging moments.

Kylie Feller
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MA, CCC
Anger isn’t the problem—it’s a messenger.
If you struggle with explosive reactions, simmering resentment, or shutting down out of fear of your own anger, you’re not alone. Anger is often a protective response rooted in deeper pain, unmet needs, or parts of us that never felt safe or heard. Through Internal Family Systems (IFS), I help you explore the parts of you that carry anger and the parts that judge it—so you can understand what’s really underneath and respond with more choice, calm, and clarity. Anger doesn’t have to control you; it can become a powerful guide for healing.

Please reach out today to learn how I can support you.

Vancouver's extreme housing affordability crisis has become a defining mental health issue, with therapists frequently addressing financial stress, housing precarity, and the grief of displacement from a city many can no longer afford to stay in. The city's large Asian community — particularly its Chinese, Korean, Filipino, and South Asian populations — drives demand for culturally fluent therapists who can navigate family dynamics, immigration stress, and the intersection of cultural expectations with individual wellbeing. BC Mental Health & Substance Use Services provides institutional support, while Vancouver's large private therapy community is concentrated in Kitsilano, Mount Pleasant, Commercial Drive, and the West End. BC's expanded telehealth access makes it easier to connect with therapists across the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley.
