Anger Management

Anger is a useful emotion and a normal reaction in instances where there is danger or a perceived threat to our lives e.g. feeling insulted or frustrated. It triggers a physical response in our bodies that is known as ‘fight or flight’. A surge of adrenaline is pumped around our bodies, preparing us to flee or fight the situation. However, these reactions aren’t appropriate for everyday situations.

For many, this natural reaction passes quickly but for some the feeling of anger can develop into a more persistent feature in their lives and become more difficult to control which can lead to both physical and mental problems such as high blood pressure, stomach problems, depression and anxiety. It can also affect relationships, work, confidence and self esteem.

If you find yourself feeling angry on a constant basis and unable to express yourself or regularly arguing with those close to you, perhaps even worried of the consequences of your anger, then Solution Focused Hypnotherapy may be the answer.

During the initial consultation I will explain in simple terms how the brain works in relation to anger and triggers that lead to anger. You will be asked to identify your preferred future and the goals you would like to achieve.
