François Lacharité
Therapist, EP L1
[EN] Anger management in my work is not about learning to suppress anger or simply staying calm. We explore what happens just before, during, and after anger arises — in your thoughts, body, impulses, and relationships — and what the anger may be trying to protect or communicate. This can make more room to express anger directly without automatically attacking, withdrawing, or losing contact with what matters to you.
[FR] Dans mon travail, la gestion de la colère ne consiste pas à apprendre à supprimer la colère ou simplement à rester calme. Nous explorons ce qui se passe avant, pendant et après qu’elle monte — dans tes pensées, ton corps, tes impulsions et tes relations — ainsi que ce qu’elle cherche peut-être à protéger ou à exprimer. Cela peut faire plus de place pour exprimer ta colère directement, sans automatiquement attaquer, te retirer ou perdre de vue ce qui compte pour toi.

Shauna Switzer, MCP, MA RP
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MCP, Registered Psychotherapist
Anger is a natural emotion, but when it becomes overwhelming or difficult to manage, it can affect relationships, work, and overall well-being. Therapy helps individuals understand the underlying causes of anger, develop healthier ways to express emotions, improve communication, and build effective coping strategies for emotional regulation.

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.

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.

Anger is a normal human reaction and can be effective and beneficial in certain situations, like responding to threats of injury or harm to yourself or others. Not being able to control anger, however, can turn destructive and cause problems in your life, as well as negatively affect personal and professional relationships.
Anger does not only affect your external relationships, it can also have negative effects on your health. Studies have shown that not being able to control your anger can lead to cardiovascular diseases, bulimia (a life-threatening eating disorder), diabetes, and road accidents. We help with emphasizing that the importance is the management of emotions and reactions towards presented situations
