For the client, I include the practices that I've learned including breathwork, meditation, and yoga to help restore the nervous system and somatic responses to stay in control and maintain a more peaceful state instead of reacting to triggers. We can together explore these tools as well as the emotional responses and thoughts that occur that do not serve us and instead make a journey towards healing, wholeness, and fulfillment.

Life is not easy; therefore, sometimes we respond in less than positive ways.
Anger is a natural emotion and healthy for our brain and bodies to communicate that a boundary has been crossed or a need is not being met. Our response to anger on the other hand is what we need to learn to navigate more effectively, which is what therapy can provide. By identifying triggers or stressors, we can work together to process underlying beliefs as well as providing resources to maintain control of your emotional responses in order to effectively manage the situation.
Together, we can work toward developing healthy ways to express anger or frustration as life is full of triggers and stressors.
