Anger Management Counselling and Programs - Gold Coast
★★★★★ Google Review 2021: Anger Management: Ghita identified that I had issues with authority after a relaxed chat. Returned for another session and are experiencing a monumental shift. Feels like a sack of spuds has been lifted from my shoulders. I feel lighter in my joints and have continued to benefit by applying my new found calm when dealing with everybody, especially when guide my colleagues at work. I shall return for another session soon, to peel off the next layer. Ghita has a gift, enjoy! - Mike (Brisbane)
How Much is Anger Costing You in Your Relationships?
Do you find yourself consumed with anger a significant amount of the time? Do you loop over and over again which effects your day? Do you feel like there are unresolved issues that manifest themselves in feelings of anger, aggression or frustration? Is this affecting your home or work relationships?
And as you probably know, medications are not a long-term solution because, they come with many side effects. Our view is that anger issues and therefore health issues can be significantly reduced by finding out where our triggers come from.
Many medical studies have found that anger has a bad effect on health. A Harvard Medical School study looked at a group of people who presented with chronic or passive anger, overwhelmed or self-inflicted anger, judgemental anger or volatile anger, in other words a vast array of presentations of anger.

CASE STUDY: Men's Anger Management:
Michael had Anger Management issues. He would often yell at his staff and had trouble maintaining relationships - including romantic one's. We examined his childhood with an intensive counselling session followed by a Time Line Therapy Regression and deleted an old limiting belief that he had about his self-worth. The change in Michael was remarkable.
★★★★★ Testimonial 2021: Anger Management: "Hi Ghita, I have been meaning to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the gift you gave me last Friday. I have been enjoying my new found power of ease ever since and apply it each day. I wonder what else may need attention now that layer has been lifted." - M. Chapman (Brisbane) Testimonials.
Anger Management Counselling and Programs - Gold Coast:
Anger is often associated with frustration – things don’t always happen the way we want and people don’t always behave the way we think they should. Anger is the by-product of yucky feelings deep beneath (See the Anger Iceberg diagram). Basically, we are triggered by an event and our internal voice (who hates not being in control) has a filter about the event or a negative (egocentric) phrase which gives us a rise (reaction). You may feel self-protective, frightened, guilty, worried, shamed or frustrated deep down, but may express these feelings as anger. Anger releases tension, but only gives relief in the short-term.
Anger in Behaviours
Interestingly, men and women often express emotion in different ways. Often men find it harder to express or understand the feelings underneath the anger, like hurt, fear, sadness or grief. For women the reverse may often be true – the anger gets buried through internalisation, emotional eating, ruminating, or other coping methods of expression. When a person is feeling vulnerable, sad or powerless, they may act out in a more powerful way with anger. Anger is useful for expressing the unexpressable, such as shame or embarassment.
"Things that used to send me over the edge, now make me laugh. I think to myself, 'I used to get triggered by that!' I am so glad that I did Anger Management with Ghita. It was a waste of my energy to get angry about things I couldn't control." - Anthony - Gold Coast
When is Anger a Problem?
Anger is a secondary emotion. If a person avoids fully feeling a primary emotion (such as sadness) and uses anger instead, it causes problems with relationships, jobs, authority, parenting and life in general. Anger is also a problem when other people around you are frightened, hurt or feel they cannot talk to you or disagree with you in case you become angry.
Anger Triggers and the Body
Anger triggers your adrenal glands to secrete adrenaline, the fight or flight response. This can lead to adrenal fatigue and the following health issues. Other scientific studies have linked inflammation in the body with aggression, anger and impulsivity. High cortisol also eats up serotonin... the feel good and coping hormone.
Why am I Angrier Than Ever Before?
The human nervous system is part of the reptilian brain and part of our survival design. The fight or flight response in humans is automatic. When anger gets set off more often than in the past, it is because you have become hypersensitive and the mind has created short-cut highways to anger. This can be because of worn neurons (stress) and fatigued adrenal glands, a lack of serotonin (or GABA), a bad diet, or new automatic highways designed to protect you faster. However, those highways will need retraining to change.
