Anger management counselling in Melbourne

Anger is usually the visible part of something else. Sessions work on what sits underneath it, and on what to do in the moment.

What people bring

Some people come by choice and some at a partner request. Both are workable.

Blowing up

Nought to furious with nothing in between.

Walking on eggshells

The people close to you have started managing you.

Shame afterwards

The apology, the promise, then the same thing again.

Consequences

Damage at home or at work you cannot take back.

How this works here

What the sessions are, how you get one, and who you will be sitting with.

Practical, not preachy

You learn to spot your own build-up early, and you get specific things to do at that point rather than afterwards.

Getting an appointment

Book online and pick a time that suits you.

Who you will see

Sessions are with Vanessa, who works with anger, emotional regulation, and the family strain that comes with both.

How we work

Telling yourself to calm down does not work. Knowing your own pattern does, and that is what we map out.
