Introduction to Anger Management for Private Individuals

Anger Management involves learning how to express your anger in a way that neither yourself nor another is hurt either verbally, physically or emotionally.

Anger Management is about being in control so that you don’t do or say things you later regret.

There is nothing wrong with anger - it is after all a normal, natural emotion. It is what we feel when we have been ‘triggered’. It is when we are angry, irritated, disappointed, annoyed or frustrated AND out of control that problems arise.

Note: Sometimes other emotions are driving the anger such as fear, insecurity or hurt. For this reason you need to have professional support to get to the source of the anger.

Anger Management involves learning about anger, how to have a healthy relationship with your own and others anger as well as gaining practical tools that you can use every day to help you stay in control. It is not psychotherapy or counselling in the traditional sense but rather it is more ‘psycho-educational’. Of course, if issues do arise that have a historic basis to them and they relate to your anger, these issues will be addressed and we will look to clear the source of your anger. If you rage, have intense angry outbursts that last longer than 4 minutes or are a perfectionist or control freak, these could be indicative of such historic anger that we will need to look at with you.

Introduction to Stress Management for Private Individuals

Stress affects different individuals differently. You can consider yourself stressed when you feel you are not able to cope with a particular situation and it is having a negative effect on you mentally, physically or emotionally. The situation may be to do with your work, your relationship, your children, your family, your finances, your studies, your unemployment and so forth.

The effects may include insomnia (poor sleep patterns), changes in diet, skin disorders, digestive disorders, headaches, migraines, irritability, snappiness, moodiness, procrastination, tiredness, no motivation, poor time-keeping, absenteeism and depression.

Stress Management takes a look at what is going on in your life, what has changed, what your lifestyle is and provides you with a plan and guidelines to cope better with the situation you are in. An area of our specialisation is stress management in the workplace and corporate stress counselling, however we will see anyone who needs our help.

A relationship between STRESS and ANGER exists in that:

Anger impacts on stress and Stress impacts on anger.

The anger may be bottled up inside of you and will be manifesting as stress. This is unlikely to be picked up by a conventionally trained stress consultant. We will deal with the source of the problem as the stress may be the symptom, which will not go away merely by altering lifestyles and improved time management.
