Understanding Anger and Addiction 

Anger and addiction often intertwine, creating a challenging cycle to break. The intensity of anger can drive individuals to substance use, while addiction can worsen anger management. 

Freedom From Addiction recognizes the link between the two and is set to address the root cause. We offer anger management programs to help our patients manage big emotions, reduce relapse risks, and achieve lasting recovery.

What is Anger Management?

Anger management therapy helps individuals recognize and control their anger responses. It teaches coping strategies to manage anger effectively. What many may not realize is that managing anger is closely tied to successful drug addiction treatments.

Our experts emphasize that unaddressed anger management issues can often lead to substance abuse. That's why integrating anger management therapy into treatment plans is crucial. It fosters emotional stability and greatly enhances the chances of a successful recovery journey.

Our Comprehensive Anger Management Program 

Our anger management treatment program aims to reduce or eliminate anger triggers and improve our patient’s emotional control. We combine treatments, such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), individual and group counselling, and positive mentalization, to address the root causes of anger.

Through our comprehensive anger management program at Freedom From Addiction, we help our patients enhance their problem-solving skills, prevent outbursts, and foster healthier relationships all so they can manage their anger effectively and live a happier, more balanced life.

Effective Anger Management Treatment Approaches 

At Freedom From Addiction, every individual seeking anger management help has access to personalized care. We approach anger management treatment with trauma-informed care, knowing that addressing its underlying causes is key to long-term success and continuous healing. 

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy 

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), is one of the most popular and effective methods of anger management therapy. This approach identifies a patient’s triggers and changes the negative thought patterns and behaviours that arise from them. It teaches patients problem-solving and coping strategies they need to control their anger.

Group Therapy 

At Freedom From Addiction, we also use psychotherapy, where we encourage our patients to open up in a group setting and share what made them seek anger management help. Here, patients can gain a sense of belonging and remove the feelings of isolation so they can develop coping skills.

Mindfulness and Stress Reduction Techniques 

Controlling bursts of anger can be achieved through mindfulness and stress reduction techniques. Exercises like meditation and yoga help our patients become aware of their emotions, giving them time to process them while reducing their anxiety and stress.

Life Skills Education 

Another effective anger management program is helping patients relearn how they can be independent once their time with us is over. Our structured classes teach essential life skills to manage anger and communicate effectively whenever they feel angry. These cover empathy, self-awareness, conflict resolution, and stress management, to name a few.

Family Therapy 

This approach to anger management creates a supportive space for family members to express their thoughts and experiences alongside our patients' addiction journey. Through family therapy, we aim to foster open communication, nurturing a path toward rebuilding strained relationships.

Physical Activity and Exercise 

At our anger management and addiction centre, a healthy lifestyle goes hand in hand with better self-regulation and mood. Our personalized fitness program ensures this with physical activities offering a healthy outlet for managing and releasing angry emotions. 

Integrating Anger Management with Addiction Treatment 

At Freedom From Addiction, we understand many patients struggling with substance abuse may be using it as a coping mechanism for deep-seated anger rooted in past traumas. We recognize the importance of addressing these underlying issues with compassion and care.

Our treatment plans include integrating anger management therapy to guide patients in developing healthy anger management skills. We aim to support your journey toward recovery by helping you overcome mental health barriers and fostering a path to healing.
