Anger is a powerful, often maligned phenomenon. It is a natural response to perceived or real threat that helps us get distance or control over it. Always meaningful, taboo for many, and sometimes destructive, understanding anger, where it comes from, what it is for is a focus of my practice, as is helping clients learn effective tools for navigating anger, even allowing it to be a useful guide.
