You have the best intentions to not yell or raise you voice, but for some reason, there is nothing you can do about it? I can help you to explore the roots of your anger and find a different way to stay present in difficult situations.
Anger and aggression get a bad rap. While these emotions can cause significant damage, these emotions are necessary to understand the things that are and are not working in your life. Anger comes up when our boundaries are crossed, when our needs go unmet, when we feel scared, overwhelmed or misunderstood. I work with you to develop coping skills for when you feel overwhelmed and help you learn how to use your anger and aggression to help you communicate effectively.

Anger management – the key ingredient for most approaches to anger management is to learn how to insert thought into the process of emotionally reacting. I have a simple, clear method for identifying anger and direct guidance for shifting from emotion to thought. This does not devalue anger, which is a very useful and important emotion. The goal is to shift from escalation of emotion to insertion of empowering thoughts.
Someone who is having difficulty with Anger Management is in Fight Mode. Using my IREST and Mindfulness approach, I can help the person get to know that part of them that is struggling to stay calm. Why is it there? What is it trying to protect me from? Together we can help that part calm and take on a better role. It's important we get to be nonjudgmental.
