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.

Rakan Himadeh
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, ISP Candidate
Somatic Experiencing (SE) and Integral Somatic Psychology (ISP) work together to support anger by addressing both the body’s activation and the emotional intensity beneath it. SE helps regulate the nervous system by slowing down the fight response, releasing stored survival energy, and reducing reactivity. ISP complements this by helping you feel the sensations and emotions associated with anger without becoming overwhelmed. Together, these approaches transform anger from explosive or suppressed into a grounded sense of clarity, strength, and healthy boundary-setting.

Samantha Chin
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Psychotherapy and Counselling, PACFA registered psychotherapist
I approach anger as an important emotional signal rather than something to simply suppress. Therapy can help you understand what your anger is protecting, how it shows up in your body and relationships, and how to express it with more clarity and control.

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Due to my background in restorative justice, family violence, sexual abuse and mental health, I have a good understanding of anger issues and how they impact the person including the potential impacts for those around them. I am able to utilise a psycho-educational approach to help you understand your inner anger better and learn practical strategies to support increased emotional regulation skills, along with specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the underlying trauma without the need to discuss the details of the trauma. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self, leaving often the carried sense of shame behind.
My aim is to assist you with your anger difficulties to restore balance, happiness and inner peace (using the various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods) along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.

John Zavaglia (Mind LIfe)
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA Registered, PC Grad MHN & Neuro, MBA
Anger can sometimes feel like it takes over before you've had a chance to think, affecting your relationships, work and how you feel about yourself afterwards. Together, we can understand what's driving your anger, recognise the patterns and triggers behind it, and develop practical ways to respond with greater control, clarity and confidence.

Mairead Cleary
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Gestalt Therapy
Anger is just about the only emotion that's socially acceptable for men to show. Most other emotions are beaten or shamed out of them. And it's an emotion that most women aren't allowed and are shamed for having. Interestingly anger is the only left-hemisphere emotion.
Anger is just an emotion, like every other emotion.
The way I see it, when anger is disowned and dumped on the people around us it doesn't serve anyone. When anger is owned, and felt, and taken responsibility for however, it can open up our strength and our passion.

Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Anger is rarely the real issue, it’s usually the visible edge of something older: a defended nervous system, an upbringing that didn’t allow safety, or a pattern learned long before adulthood. I work with clients to understand what their anger is protecting and to build the capacity to respond rather than react. Drawing on Transactional Analysis and CBT, sessions focus on identifying triggers, understanding the underlying script, and developing practical tools for regulation in the moment. Many of my clients are high-functioning professionals whose anger surfaces most acutely under pressure at work or at home, and who want lasting change rather than just better containment.

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.

Mitchell Kovacs
Counsellor/Therapist, Level 2 Counsellor (ACA)
Anger Management is the process of recognizing, understanding and responding to anger in a constructive informative way rather than harmful. Anger is a normal human emotion. We don't need to eliminate it, rather deal with and process it in n effective expressive and regulated way. If you would like to get to the source to understand it i can assist there too.

Irene Valis
Counsellor/Therapist, Gestalt Psychotherapist, PACFA Certified Counsellor, Life Coach
Many women I work with on a variety of issues eventually meet and work with their suppressed anger. Anger has been so shamed and vilified in our families and in society at large; perceived as a bad or negative emotion.
However, when held and harnessed with the right support, it can bring about profound and positive change in your life.
I welcome all parts of you in a safe, non-judgemental space. Together we will work on learning to embrace and discharge anger and restore a sense of presence, clarity, connection and ease.

Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Anger can feel like it takes over — a switch that flips before you've even decided to let it, followed by guilt or regret once it's passed. If anger is costing you relationships, peace of mind, or the person you want to be, let's work together to help you understand and reshape your relationship with it.
The first step in working with anger is understanding that anger itself isn't the enemy — it's often a signal pointing to something underneath: hurt, fear, exhaustion, unmet needs. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll explore what's really driving your reactions and build tools to respond instead of react. My approach focuses on self-awareness, accountability, and self-compassion, helping you feel more in control and more at peace.
You don't have to keep fighting this alone. Let's take the first step toward calmer ground and steadier relationships.

Anger is often an outcome or result of a range of feelings and emotions. This can be due to a situation or scenario which has left you feeling emotionally distraught or triggered. Unfortunately, displays of anger can result in your loved ones feeling distressed, hurt or in danger. Together, we develop action plans and strategies to live a more meaningful life, processing trauma and emotions surrounding their scenario.

Stephen Moore
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters of Counselling and Applied Psychotherapy (MCAP)
Anger management to me should be Anger Understanding. If you do not understand your anger there is no way to have agency over your anger outbursts. There is a lot of reasons for being in dysregulated state and through regular therapy you will learn to gain more peace in your life.

Sydney's high cost of living, competitive job market, and population density create significant ongoing stress for residents, with therapists frequently addressing housing anxiety, burnout, and the pressures of maintaining relationships in a fast-paced city. The city has large Chinese, Korean, Indian, and Lebanese communities, and culturally competent and multilingual therapists are in consistent demand across its diverse suburban and inner-city neighbourhoods. Sydney's mental health landscape is supported by institutions including Royal Prince Alfred Hospital and the Black Dog Institute at UNSW, with a large private therapy community serving the CBD, Inner West, Northern Beaches, and Eastern Suburbs. Medicare rebates through Mental Health Treatment Plans make a significant number of sessions partially subsidised for eligible residents.
