Mastering Anger: Regulate, Don’t Repress
Understand Emotional Triggers, Build Control, and Grow Through Healthy Expression
Why Anger Isn’t the Enemy
Anger is a natural and valid human emotion. It tells us when something feels unjust, unsafe, or in conflict with our values. But for many, anger becomes overwhelming—leading to damaged relationships, impulsive actions, or internal shame.
At Fong Kotylak and Associates, we don’t teach you to suppress anger. We teach you how to recognize it, regulate it, and respond with clarity and purpose.
What Is Anger Management Really About?
Anger management is the practice of:
Recognizing emotional triggers
Regulating your nervous system in real time
Choosing intentional responses over reactive outbursts
Communicating feelings in a healthy, respectful way
It’s not about avoidance. It’s about transforming your relationship with anger.
The Psychology Behind It: Emotional Regulation in Action
When you’re triggered, your brain’s threat center—the amygdala—goes into overdrive. In these moments, the logical part of the brain temporarily shuts down.
Emotional regulation helps you re-engage the rational mind. Through mindfulness, breathwork, cognitive strategies, and somatic tools, you can teach your body to respond rather than react.
Why This Matters
Improve your relationships
Make better decisions under stress
Build emotional intelligence
Reduce anxiety and long-term stress
Increase confidence and self-awareness
Research shows that emotional regulation leads to healthier communication, decreased reactivity, and overall mental well-being.
Our Approach
We use a holistic, evidence-based framework that includes:
Mindfulness training to increase present-moment awareness
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) techniques to shift negative thought patterns
Communication skills training for assertive expression
Somatic practices to calm the nervous system
Whether you struggle with outbursts, silent resentment, or internalized anger, we offer practical tools to help you regain control.
You’re Not Broken—You’re Human
Anger is not a flaw. It’s a signal. The challenge is not to eliminate anger, but to learn how to respond from strength, not from pain.
With the right tools, you can navigate conflict, stand in your truth, and protect your peace.
