Anger is a common and natural emotion with permutations that can range from all-out rage and aggression to frustration, irritability and impatience, often masking underlying feelings of sadness, disappointment and hurt. Although anger often has something to teach us and can be used in constructive, powerful and healthy ways--often the manner in which it is expressed can be incredibly dysfunctional and destructive. Learning to work with and manage strong emotions is integral for all aspects of our lives and in relationship with others. Let's work together to find ways to cope with overwhelming emotions, learn strategies to combat stress reactions, calm and down-regulate the nervous system and retrain the default cognitive responses that can lead to harmful expressions of anger.
When anger is understood as being a threat response, not only can we move past the behaviour and instead look at the underlying issues, but we can also become more connected with ourselves.
Anger affects our ability to create and maintain positive, healthy relationships with others, often leading to feelings of helplessness and isolation. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy incorporates techniques and activities to decrease impulsive negative behaviours to help decrease anger symptoms.
