Anger Management 
Being emotional and angry can affect your physical health as well as your emotional health, and it can damage relationships. Therapy has an important role to play in helping to control anger and achieving lasting benefit by stopping angry outbursts recurring.
At Solution Focused Therapy Dublin we can give you effective help to deal with and eliminate anger easily, whatever the cause. Therapy is based on a modern understanding of psychology and how the emotional systems in the brain work. We use the most up-to-date proven techniques, including counselling and psychotherapy techniques and hypnotherapy techniques that are most effective for anger management and treating emotional problems to achieve lasting positive change.
Anger
Anger is a normal human emotion. It is part of the 'fight or flight' survival mechanism which evolved to help us when faced with threat or attack. The pulse races, adrenalin surges, breathing gets faster and shallow, blood surges to the muscles of the legs and arms, and the body gets flooded with stress hormones.
But it is problematic when it becomes excessive and manifests in uncontrollable outbursts. It can ruin lives as work and relationships suffer. Excessive anger can sometimes have an obvious trigger, but also can seem to occur out of the blue. It always results from stress or an underlying issue that needs to be addressed with therapy.
There are various stressful circumstances such as feeling overtired, ill or hungry or undergoing hormonal changes, that can lead us to have a lower tolerance for irritations that can then accumulate into angry feelings and outbursts. For example, we may get frustrated or irritated with the boss, but have to keep those feelings to ourselves, which leaves them circulating with no obvious way of being discharged. We may become more and more wound up by little annoyances that build up over the day until we reach a point when we snap over something seemingly trifling.
Sometimes people have a tendency towards anger because of chronic low self-esteem which may stem from neglect during childhood. As adults, they may never feel good or worthy enough and tend to lash out if they perceive themselves as slighted in any way.
More often than is realised, anger is triggered by fear which relates to a long-forgotten experience, perhaps from childhood when anger was felt but at the time supressed.
At Solution Focused Therapy Dublin we can teach you anger management techniques that you can use to diffuse and control anger and we can help you to ultimately eliminate angry outbursts and reactions. Contact us and we will be happy to help you.

TESTIMONIALS - Anger management Success Stories
"Mary, thanks so much for helping me. The angry reactions have stopped completely and my relationship is getting better now. I was a bit sceptical at first when you thought this could be achieved in just three or four sessions, but it did work out and I am so relieved.”
