Anger Counselling in Bromley
Do you find yourself snapping, losing patience quickly or feeling anger build up inside you?
Maybe you bottle things up until something small pushes you over the edge.
Or you get angry fast and afterwards feel guilt, shame or confusion about what happened.
Often anger is linked to stress, past experiences, or emotional needs that haven’t been met for a long time.
I’m Mark, a BACP-registered integrative counsellor in Bromley, and I support people in understanding and manage anger in a healthier, more compassionate way.
How Anger Might Be Showing Up for You
You might notice:
-
Snapping at people you care about

Bottling feelings up then “blowing”

Struggling to stay calm when stressed
-
Feeling embarrassed or regretful afterwards
-
Getting overwhelmed by pressure
-
Feeling misunderstood or not listened to
-
Shutting down or withdrawing after conflict
If this sounds familiar, then please reach out for an initial chat about how I can support.
What Might Be Underneath Your Anger
Anger almost always protects something softer underneath, hurt, sadness, fear, exhaustion or past experiences where you weren’t allowed to express yourself.
You may have grown up needing to stay strong, defend yourself, or hide what you really felt.
Or perhaps recent pressures have simply become too much.
In counselling I'll help you look gently beneath the surface, helping you understand what your anger is communicating.
