Anger Management for Adults
We offer eight weekly sessions for adults to help with Anger Management - this is one to one sessions with a trained and qualified counsellor - sessions are free, funded by the NHS.
"Talking, talking, talking over many years has helped immensely. Now I don't bottle it all up inside."
If your anger means you're acting in an abusive or violent way, it's important to get help. You might feel worried that asking for help will get you in trouble. But it's often the most important first step towards changing your behaviour.
Typically sessions are delivered over eight weekly sessions between 50 to 60 minutes.
Our Anger management counselling is currently available remotely via phone or video.
Anger Managment is available to people aged 16 or over, available across our service area including East Staffordshire, Lichfield District and Tamworth Borough.
We only accept self referrals via Staffordshire Talking Therapies.
