Anger Management Counselling in West Wickham

Michelle Dada
Counsellor, MBACP
Childhood trauma, unhealthy patterns, addiction and trauma can all result in unresolved pain. Being able to explore that pain in a non judgemental, confidential, empathic space can be an essential life changing experience. Many clients come to therapy wanting change and emotional health, awareness of where that pain comes from and the journey to understand its impact on our lives today is a crucial part of healing. Often our trauma is not recognised, believed or simply understood. Yet we're living with the impact of these issues. It takes courage to acknowledge our pain but for those who can it can give us the tools to change.

You might be wrestling with feelings of isolation, frustration, or a sense of “not being enough.” Therapy offers a safe and confidential space where you can slow down and work through challenges in a meaningful way. I work collaboratively with clients to overcome challenges like anxiety, depression, trauma, and self-esteem issues.

Every client responds to a different balance of therapeutic help. It's your journey, and it's one along which you can discover what if anything is stopping you be the best you can be, or where your talents lie. With or without the aide of hypnosis, your life journey is one of self discovery and a pathway to the realisation that you have all the tools you need, right inside. Its a journey that would sometimes benefit from a pause and a think in a non judgemental, confidential environment and that what I provide to all my clients.

Hi, I am Mariam, a senior psychotherapist, supervisor and clinical Hypnotherapist, in my experience clients come to therapy because they are either overwhelmed due to recent events in their lives or have been carrying unresolved conscious or unconscious ordeals or traumas. The goal of therapy should always include self-knowledge and self-healing. coming closer to self will help us to come closer to others. As part of this, it is important for all of us to have empathy towards ourselves. So the ultimate goal of therapy should be to gain self-love.

Anger Management Counsellors
How long does therapy take for anger management?
Treatment duration depends on the person’s specific challenges and circumstances. There are treatments for anger problems that are shorter and more goal-oriented, like Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), which can last weeks to months. Others, like Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) may last between six months and a year, while a more intensive treatment, like psychodynamic therapy, is open-ended, and clients may see their therapist for a year or longer.

How do you know if you need therapy for anger management?
Everyone gets mad from time to time. But when angry outbursts become frequent and cause damage to relationships, whether at home or in the office, it may be a good time to look into therapy. A therapist can assess where a client’s anger may be coming from, suggest strategies for averting angry outbursts, and help a client create a plan to become a calmer version of themselves.

Is there medication for anger management?
Medications do exist that help people mitigate the feeling of anger, but these are reserved for people with anger-related psychiatric disorders, such as intermittent explosive disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, or in some cases borderline personality disorder. In these cases, antidepressant medications may be prescribed to help with the client’s symptoms. In most cases of anger management, however, talk therapy is the recommended treatment, along with lifestyle changes where relevant.

What’s the best way to encourage someone to seek help for anger issues?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either themselves or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
