Therapy and Counselling for Anger Management
Learn how to express anger in healthy, productive ways.
We all feel angry sometimes. It's a natural human emotion. But when anger becomes overwhelming, frequent, or destructive (either towards yourself or others), it may be time to get support. At Church Wellesley Counselling and Psychotherapy, we offer anger management therapy that helps you explore the root of your anger, recognize triggers, and build practical tools to respond more effectively.

Panic attacks or shortness of breath during stressful moments

Physical symptoms like racing heart, muscle tension, or upset stomach

When it affects your relationships, well-being, or work

When it leads to frequent aggression, arguments, or regret
-
When you're often left feeling ashamed, exhausted, or guilty
You Don’t Have to “Have an Anger Problem” to Benefit
You might not yell. You might carry a low simmering resentment every day. Anger doesn’t always look loud. Therapy can help, even if you’re just trying to be a little more in control, a little more kind -- to yourself and others.
