Counseling for Anger Management
Are you easily irritated?
Does your anger turn into acts of hostility?
If minor frustration too quickly becomes major aggression, and if friends, family and co-workers appear afraid of you, anger may be taking a heavy toll on your relationships, job security, and even on your health.
Feeling angry much of the time might also be robbing you of the intimacy you want with your partner, or the bonding you'd like to have with your children.
Being in a frequent or constant state of anger causes the body to release hormones that prepare you for a fight, but those biochemicals can also damage your heart and immune system, as well as increase the probability for injurious accidents.
No one wants to be angry all the time, but what can you do?
The Highland Counseling Services specialist in anger management counseling can help.
Anger management counseling can help you separate what you feel from what you do about that feeling. With counseling you can start to recognize what provokes you. You'll develop positive, productive skills for handling what ticks you off without losing your cool. Counseling can help you be the kind of person you want to be in any challenging situation.
Anger can be positively controlled -- let's start
Anger is a normal human emotion that everyone experiences.
For some, the responses to this emotion become out of control, wreckless, or destructive, resulting in negative consequences such as legal issues,
relationship issues, or health issues.
Counseling can help you identify and understand your triggers as well as learn and practice coping skills to effectively deal with your anger.
Some skills that a therapist might introduce during anger management counseling are:
-
