Can Hypnotherapy Really Cure Anger Management Problems?

Anger. We all feel it at one time or another. In fact, I’m not sure that there’s a single person on the planet who has never felt anger in their life. And, do you know what? Anger is completely natural; a normal human emotion that can, in small doses, be healthy to experience.

When Does Anger Become A Problem?

When you find yourself becoming angry more and more often, or more and more intensely, your anger management may be becoming problematic.

Maybe your anger gets in the way of day-to-day life?

Or perhaps your anger is impacting your relationships, your job or your hobbies?

If you are becoming excessively angry about seemingly small inconveniences or losing your temper at the drop of a hat, it may be that your anger management is becoming a problem for you.

How Do I Know If I Have An Anger Management Problem?

Recognising you may have a problem is often the first step towards overcoming it. As with many other emotions though, increased levels of anger can be difficult to detect in yourself. When speaking to my clients, I often hear that family or close friends have been the first one to notice that their loved one’s demeanour is changing, and they are becoming more angry. And, as hard as it is to recognise that you may have a problem, hearing this from someone close to you before you have identified the issue can be even more tricky to accept.

Anger and Hypnotherapy

Key signs of worsening anger management ability can include;

  • Outward anger, such as shouting, swearing, threatening or becoming physically violent
  • Inward anger, which often looks like low-self belief or treating oneself unfavourably
  • Being unusually confrontational without prior thought
  • Ignoring people or giving them the silent treatment
  • Problems expressing any emotions in a calm manner
  • Being unable to compromise or see situations from the view of others
  • Poor behaviour in relationships or friendships
  • Becoming even more angry, or even violent, when drinking alcohol
  • Being unable to take constructive criticism

 

What Causes My Anger Management Problems?

Anger itself can come from a wide range of situations. Each person has their own triggers that cause them to become angry, but these can often include: feeling threatened, being frustrated, having feelings of being powerless, feeling that inequality is at play, being disrespected or not valued and feeling misunderstood. What may cause one person to face difficulties with managing their anger may not impact another person at all. Anger – like all emotions – is very subjective so what makes you angry may not make someone else feel any anger at all and vice versa.

How you react to your anger can also impact upon how your anger develops in future. For example, those who have grown up in a household where anger was expressed, talked about and overcome may have learned to cope with anger in a much healthier manner than those who were surrounded by unmanaged anger or excessive “sulking” as an avoidance technique. Knowing how to overcome anger is a key element of minimising any management problems that may arise.

Hypnotherapy For Anger Management

When left to stew under the surface, anger can grow, leading to health problems and significant impact on relationships with loved ones, colleagues and, possibly most importantly yourself. Anger isn’t only emotional – it can attribute towards heart disease, blood pressure problems and strokes.

The good news? Hypnotherapy can help!

By identifying the source of the anger, hypnotherapy can support a client to change their thought patterns and avoid an explosion of emotion. As anger can often be simmering for some time before bursting out, it can stem from past experiences, becoming engrained in a person’s personality for the rest of their life.

Anger and Hypnotherapy treatment

Hypnotherapy, however, allows the client to go into a relaxed mental state in a safe place with the support of a Clinical Hypnotherapist, using the power of suggestion. By tapping into the subconscious mind, a client can be supported to change their thought patterns and behaviours in situations that could have otherwise been triggering. Clients report feeling lighter and much calmer following as little as one hypnotherapy session, even when provoked or triggered.

David

David Gowans

Training & Development

Tagline: He’s seen mental health crisis at its most acute. And he knows what actually helps.

LinkedIn:

David’s background is probably unlike anyone else you’ll meet in a mental health training room.

Twenty-three years on the frontline of emergency services first as a police officer, now as an HCPC-registered practising paramedic. He hasn’t studied stress, trauma and burnout from a distance. He’s carried them, in uniform, responding to people at the absolute worst moments of their lives. He understands the culture that makes asking for help feel like the hardest thing in the world because he’s lived inside that culture.

That frontline experience sits alongside his clinical practice as a qualified hypnotherapist and accredited EFT practitioner. David works with real people navigating real challenges every single week. What he brings to Piece of Mind Training isn’t theoretical. It’s current, grounded and built entirely from the inside out.

As part of the team, David delivers training, practises as a therapist and plays a key role in the development and direction of the organisation making sure that everything Piece of Mind produces is professionally rigorous and genuinely human.

David is responsible for development and ensures that Piece of Mind Training programmes are grounded in real-world application. Not what the textbook says should happen. What actually works when it matters.

Iona

Iona Russell

Growth & Partnerships

Tagline: She’s written the book. Literally.

Iona has spent more than twenty years working at the intersection of human potential and real-world impact — across psychology, coaching, education, broadcasting, the charitable sector and social policy, in both the UK and the USA.

She is a Master Positive Psychology Coach and twice bestselling author who has supported hundreds of people through coaching qualifications and worked alongside some of the most respected names in positive psychology and personal development. As a keynote speaker and leadership advisor, she helps organisations rethink what success and human flourishing actually look like.

But what drives Iona’s commitment to mental health work goes deeper than her professional background. She lost her brother to suicide. That experience — and everything it taught her about the gap between what people are going through and the support available to them — shapes everything she brings to Piece of Mind Training.

At Piece of Mind, Iona leads our partnerships, builds community impact and drives our growth across Scotland and beyond. She brings commercial insight, deep human understanding and a personal reason for being here that no CV can fully capture.

Ann Stewart

Head of Training

Tagline: The person who makes sure the learning delivers every time.

LinkedIn:

Ann has spent her career helping people make sense of the things that are weighing on them and finding a way forward when everything feels tough.

Her background is genuinely rare. A qualified teacher, certified hypnotherapist, coach and First Aid for Mental Health practitioner, Ann brings together an understanding of how people learn with a deep, practical knowledge of how people struggle. She still works directly with adults and young people every week supporting those experiencing anxiety, low confidence, emotional distress and the kind of quiet difficulties that don’t always have a name but make everyday life feel impossibly hard.

As a trainer, Ann knows that the best mental health training doesn’t just inform people, it changes how they see themselves and the people around them. She brings that belief into every session she delivers, whether she’s working with a room full of HR professionals or a team who’ve never talked about mental health at work before.

As a therapist, trainer, teacher and mum of three, Ann understands that most people are dealing with far more than anyone around them realises. That understanding is the foundation of everything she does.

At Piece of Mind Training, Ann leads on training quality and consistency, making sure that what we promise is what every learner experiences, every time.
