Unhealthy anger can be one of the most frustrating and frightening emotions therapists work with.
Many clients aren't ready to make a change. Forced into therapy by their partner, employer, or court system they don't give you anything to work with, making sessions feel flat and pointless.
Other angry clients are aggressive in session. They yell, posture and question your competence. It can catch you off-guard leaving you uneasy, uncomfortable and trying to manage your own visceral reaction to their rage.
It's exhausting and you wish there was a better way.
