Do you get labelled as hot-tempered, hot-headed, feisty, or as having a short fuse? Managing and controlling anger can be difficult for many people – you are not alone! There can be many reasons for having difficulty controlling anger, including hereditary factors, upbringing, past traumatic experiences, and feeling rejected or disrespected. Unfortunately, there are also many negative consequences when we cannot control our temper, which may include: lost employment opportunities, broken relationships, distrust, and lack of respect from others.

If you suffer from having difficulty controlling your anger, you might want to consider working with one of our clinical therapists.  A trained therapist can help you to assess the triggers for your anger, identify the negative consequences in your life, and find new ways of managing anger. This often includes developing calming strategies, learning healthy communication skills, and setting appropriate boundaries.  If uncontrolled anger is something you struggle with, please reach out for a consultation with one of our compassionate psychotherapists today.
