Anger Management Therapy for Men

“Anger management is an effective framework for men who are struggling to appropriately manage their emotions” , identifies Dr. Michael Dadson. Through weekly sessions, clients can learn techniques to identify and express their feelings and control their actions in a healthy and productive way. During counselling sessions with Dr. Dadson , clients also explore methods of thwarting volatile emotions before they manifest into anger. “With this personalized approach, men can take control of their anger, their words and their actions, experiencing improved mental health and improved personal relationships” Dr. Dadson confirms .

Anger management focuses on helping an individual to understand the signs and triggers of their anger, and to develop coping mechanisms to deal with their behaviour in a more constructive way. The aim is to help the individual to recognize their anger early on and help them to pause and reflect on the ager and the actions that can arise from it. We work on understanding the anger and the underlying experiences that activate the anger we work on diffusing the situation before it becomes expressed in uncontrolled words or actions.

Cognitive anger management therapy focuses on helping the individual to identify and change the thoughts and beliefs that are causing the angry feelings. The goal is to help the individual to see the situation more clearly and to respond to it in a more constructive way.
Behavioral anger management therapy focuses on helping the individual to change the way they respond to the things that make them angry. The goal is to teach the individual new, more effective ways of coping with the situation. This may involve learning relaxation techniques, learning how to better communicate their needs, or learning how to better deal with stress.
Dr. Dadson integrates these approaches with emotionally focused therapy and sensory approaches.
