Anger Management Therapists in Kingston, ON

The really good things in life are not supposed to be this complicated. You've been feeling off, you’re distracted and disengaged from the important people in your life, and you’re struggling with deeply personal issues that you just can't shake off. These are things you’re not even sure how to talk to people about. You’re embarrassed and ashamed to have the problems you have and you’re not sure why you can’t just manage things on your own, but you can’t seem to. You know it’s time to bring in a hired gun. You want results, you want relief, and you want it yesterday. You don’t want to be in therapy for years, either.

There are so many issues that men experience that many therapists do not pay attention to. I get it, it's not easy managing all your different roles. I assume, as a kid, you were taught that "men don't cry". Having no emotions, or "just deal with it" was encouraged by others. Now, as an adult, you may be accused of "being heartless" or "emotionless". Maybe you feel lost, angry, or confused. You've been through a lot, and there isn't a place for you to work to make sense of everything that is going on. You've tried so many strategies, but your attempts only leave you feeling like a failure

You really care, and whenever you can, you do your best. BUT, you're sick and tired of being sick and tired..

You don't want to feel this way, but nothing you've tried so far has helped. You just don't know what you need to feel better, and you're starting to wonder if there is really anything better out there for you on the horizon, or, if this is... just as good as it gets?
