Anger is a natural survival energy. The work is to steer it safely, not to erase it.
In Weybridge I offer somatic EMDR for anger management that begins with regulation. You’ll practise anchors that create immediate space when heat rises: widen your gaze, feel more weight through your feet, let the exhale lengthen until shoulders soften. These cues keep choice online.
We then build somatic awareness so you can spot the earliest signs of escalation—jaw clamping, breath going narrow, hands buzzing, vision tunnelling. With practice you’ll meet these signals quickly with pauses and boundary phrases that protect everyone involved.
When stability holds, we use EMDR’s bilateral stimulation to process triggers and old moments that keep anger close to the surface—times you weren’t heard, patterns of unfairness, beliefs that strength equals volume. Processing is slow and contained, with frequent pauses and clear consent.
Between sessions we add brief routines—movement that discharges, breath patterns that settle, evening rituals that reduce residue—so relief continues outside the room.
People usually notice fewer spikes, quicker recoveries and more dignity in conflict. Anger becomes just one colour in the palette rather than the only one available.
FAQ
Q1. How will somatic EMDR help with anger management?
We map early signals, build regulation and process triggers so heat can ease without collapse or harm.
Q2. Do you teach ways to pause when anger rises?
Yes—widened gaze, heavier feet, longer exhale and boundary phrases you can use in the moment.
Q3. Are online sessions suitable for this work?
Yes. With clear structure and consent‑led pacing, remote sessions are effective and contained.
