Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
If you are struggling with anger issues or feeling triggered or overwhelmed by anger or resentment please reach out to me. This is a common struggle for those who grew up in a household where anger wasn’t an accepted emotion so it is then suppressed. This can lead to more anger and depression. I love seeing the results my clients get when they work with me on their anger and take control of their emotions . I can provide you with tools to manage it in a healthy way.

Anger is a natural emotion that everyone feels, but sometimes it can build to a point where we don't feel like we have control over it anymore. I firmly believe that you are more than what you are going through, and together we can work towards building a more authentic and empowered life by exploring what anger is trying to tell you.

Anger is an healthy emotion that must be acknowledged and accepted. When we experience anger we receive a message that a change is required. Therapy can help an individual establish healthy personal boundaries. Having such boundaries can assist one to create shifts in their relationships and their experiences to minimize the opportunity for frustration. Therapy can also help one validate one’s emotions and express their feelings in healthier ways.

Anger is a really important aspect of our healing; to be able to allow anger, to feel it and to integrate it helps us to understand where our boundaries lie and where we may have been violated in the past. This awareness, being with it, can become our strength. It includes knowing when we just plain don't like the way we are being treated; which is an important aspect in self esteem.

Oh, anger, often relegated to the shadows as the most maligned emotion in the human repertoire. Yet, it is my fervent passion and ambition to redefine its narrative, shedding light on this potent emotion's healthy and empowering uses. Acknowledged for its potential to become one of the most poisonous energies when mismanaged, anger has been implicated in family breakdowns, wars, lost relationships, emotional harm, and tragically, even death. It's no wonder that society often perceives anger as the problem, prescribing the solution as suppressing or never expressing it.
Unfortunately, this approach doesn't lead to healing toxic anger, which I define as the kind that manifests as a destructive force, causing harm and leaving poisonous aftermaths. The path to healing unhealthy anger emerges when we dare to recognize anger as a precious emotion. This guide can lead us to a world where healthy boundaries shape relationships, justice guides us through addressing problematic situations, and self-care and self-respect become guiding beacons in the vast expanse of our lives.
Across millions of years of evolution, anger has served as a vital signal, alerting us to instances of hurt, mistreatment, neglect, or abuse. Its healthy purpose extends beyond mere survival; it empowers us to create harmonious and peaceful experiences with ourselves and our communities. However, the unfortunate consequence of society's tendency to discard all forms of anger is the epidemic of toxic anger we witness today.
Toxic anger, I believe, is the misguided use of this powerful emotion—redirecting pain toward the wrong targets and employing inappropriate tools for expression. People often blame anger for the misuse of this energy, and when addressing anger management, my approach goes beyond preventing harmful outbursts. I strive to guide individuals toward understanding the messages embedded within themselves, transforming signals of frustration and anger into powerful fuel for positive life transformation and inner peace.
Understanding the healthy aspect of anger becomes apparent when we experience or witness injustice, feeling a surge of anger. I believe this form of anger has fueled human revolutions led by inspiring figures such as Nelson Mandela, Mahatma Gandhi, and Martin Luther King. Leaders like them harnessed anger in its healthiest form—transforming the desire to harm into a commitment to establishing clear boundaries, standing up for justice, and never remaining silent in the face of injustice.
Throughout my own life, advocating for justice and assisting others in developing this capability has been a profound passion. With this passion, I extend an invitation to transform your relationship with anger, utilizing it as a catalyst to enhance your life rather than perpetuating harm to yourself and those you hold dear through toxic anger. It would be my honour to guide you on this transformative journey.
