Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
While there are often mental components to anger you'll want to address with a talk therapist, there's also a physical component that we can work on using somatic approaches:
Out of control anger is often your nervous system's "fight" response kicking in so intensely that it's hard to keep your cool. Anger serves an important purpose, but we want to know that we can still stay connected to our best selves even while we are angry.
We can use body-focused techniques to be able to recognize when anger is about to kick in, and to teach your body new ways of responding to that anger. For example, you may find yourself saying to me "I noticed I was getting hot and agitated, so I excused myself for a couple minutes."
You may find yourself able to focus your energy much more quickly than you used to, to come back focused and goal oriented. You may still feel 'mad' but it may be anger that is working for you, in alignment with your values.

Dr. Patrick McGrath
Psychologist, O.C., C. Psychologist
Anger is a powerful, completely natural human emotion, but when it feels overwhelming or starts to damage your relationships and daily life, it can feel exhausting to manage. I offer a supportive, non-judgmental space to explore what lies beneath the surface—whether it is stress, burnout, hurt, or boundary-crossing. Using evidence-based cognitive behavioural strategies, we will work collaboratively to help you recognize early warning signs, build practical emotional regulation tools, and respond to triggers with clarity and choice rather than reaction.
