Matthew Pitts
Registered Psychotherapist, Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology
Wherever your anger comes from, we can work on understanding it better and seek healing together. While anger is a normal, human emotion, it doesn't have to control and direct your life. Let's explore gaining a better understanding of your anger triggers, why you get angry, and ways of reacting on your own terms. For example, being assertive doesn't mean you have to be angry too. I offer a safe space where you can express yourself and be heard, and I bring an empathic but analytical style. If this resonates with you, reach out for a free Zoom consultation.

Watras Counselling and Psychotherapy Services
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MACP, BSc
Anger, frustration, rage, and reactivity overall, can make a person feel frustrated and powerless; when we have emotional outbursts of any kind they can feel so all-encompassing and make us feel like we are not in control of feelings, thoughts, and behaviours. In working with clients on their emotions I aim to primarily promote an understanding of why our emotional outbursts occur; once this has been established we begin to work on how to manage, mitigate, or change how these outbursts occur, or why we feel the way that we feel in the first place.

Tangled Minds Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, RCC
I specialize in working with men with anger management issues, and have extensive experience when men have domestic violence charges. Anger, especially in relationships is fixable if we can understand it. Often it's rooted in deep feelings of fear, being unheard, feeling like things aren't fair, or not feeling respected. All these things are okay and normal to feel! The pathway to anger and violence however simply doesn't work in the long term.
We learn to recognize our trigger points, calm our nervous systems, challenge our thought patterns, and create new, healthy behavior patterns. This can look like a lot of things. Sometimes it's taking space, sometimes it's communicating our needs or anger in a healthy way, sometimes it's setting better boundaries. Sometimes it's leaving the relationship or work setting. When we see anger as an indicator that something isn't right, we can learn to respect it, work with it, and channel it into healthy change.

Kristen See
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
I view anger as a response to deeper, unresolved concerns such as childhood emotional neglect, trauma, and/or unmanaged neurodivergence. Often anger co-occurs with my top specialties: ADHD, PTSD and BPD. In my practice I encourage a collaborative process wherein we establish effective coping skills and work to unpack and understand the experiences that have resulted in anger management concerns.

Gal Zohar

Anger is often a signal, a protector stemming from hurt, stress, or unmet needs. Together, we’ll explore what’s beneath the anger, build emotional awareness, and develop tools that help you respond rather than react. In a nonjudgmental space, we’ll work toward understanding your anger, not suppressing it, so you can feel more grounded, connected, and in control.

Delphine Amer
Registered Psychotherapist, M.Sc., Registered Psychotherapist
Anger can be so limiting and often causes problems in our relationships with others. It is so difficult to feel wound up and ready to explode all the time. Often, underneath the anger lie multiple emotions; sadness, guilt, shame and other limiting drivers. The good news is, there are many strategies and tools available to manage anger. I provide psychoeducation about the window of tolerance and the ABC's of anger; enabling clients to recognize triggers (cognitive, specific events and situations and somatic symptoms). Together, we will explore the roots of your anger and you will learn how to harness your own internal wisdom to manage difficult thoughts and feelings that drive anger. Take the journey with me and get the tools you deserve to live the life you want to live.

Anger can sometimes feel like it takes over before you have a chance to choose how you want to respond. In therapy, we can explore what sits underneath anger, including stress, fear, shame, hurt, trauma, or unmet needs.

Tanya Beach
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP (Qualifying)
When we experience recurrent anger that feels overwhelming and overpowering, we can find ourselves feeling out of control and ashamed. Through self-exploration, we can start to uncover the underlying emotions that are fueling the anger as anger tends to show up when something deeper within us needs attention and processing, often emotions that stem from past experiences, unmet needs, or ignored boundaries. By working to identify the root causes of our anger, we can begin to understand them in a more meaningful and productive way, since processing buried emotions, or unexpressed needs can be incredibly healing. Over time, this awareness can also help to transform how we relate or react to anger and how to approach situations with more clarity and self-compassion. Book a free 15-minute consultation with me to see if I’m the right fit for you.

Ottawa's identity as Canada's capital and a major hub for the federal public service creates a therapy landscape shaped by the particular stresses of government work — including bureaucratic frustration, political exposure, and the weight of careers lived in proximity to national policy decisions. The city's large bilingual population means both French- and English-speaking therapists are essential, with many practitioners offering services in both official languages. The Ottawa Hospital and Montfort Hospital provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private practice community serving the Glebe, Westboro, and Barrhaven areas. Ottawa's significant visible minority communities — including large Lebanese, Chinese, and Somali populations — drive growing demand for culturally affirming and multilingual therapists.
