Anger Work For Professionals

Anger is a message. Let’s help your nervous system hear it differently.

You’re a smart, capable professional – but when anger takes over, it doesn’t matter how successful or composed you usually are. Whether it’s snapping at a colleague, losing patience with a partner, or silently bottling frustration until it erupts, you know the feeling: this isn’t who you want to be.

And despite your best efforts to manage it logically, something deeper keeps taking the wheel.

That’s because anger isn’t just in your head.
It’s in your nervous system.
It’s in your body memory.
And you can change it.

Why Anger Feels So Hard to Control

Believe it or not, young boys have greater emotional expression than girls, but in late childhood social conditioning can dampen this dynamic expression. If those feelings were met with judgment or silence in early life, young men reactively mask with distraction, frustration, perfectionism, defensiveness – byproducts of emotional suppression. Over time, the body can convert perceived vulnerability into anger as an automatic survival pattern. In adulthood, this compensatory behavior can be normalized, especially in a professional workplace where status and power play a larger role. Some men do not know they are doing it or how to shift gears for improved relationships.

These reactions live in a body’s memory, not just in thoughts. That’s why traditional talk therapy doesn’t always stick: it doesn’t reach the root.

How Clinical Hypnotherapy Helps

Hypnotherapy is not about losing control or being controlled. It’s about regaining it – by developing keen awareness and working directly with the part of you that’s running these reactions on autopilot. This updated hypnotherapy is an intrinsic technology.

Through clinical hypnotherapy, we can access the subconscious patterns behind your anger—where they were formed, what they’re protecting, and how to finally release them. We also work towards the future practice of expression.

Rewriting Emotional Code

Some emotional responses can’t be “managed” – they need to be transformed at the source. Adaptive information processing is a brain-based process that helps your nervous system halt fueling a present event with energy stored from past events. Whether through EMDR or clinical hypnotherapy, emotional and body-stored memories can be recalled and revisited with updated perspectives of knowledge and choice. This is what is known as memory reconsolidation.

Not reliving a rough time, instead – resolving it.

For Men Who Value Privacy and a Direct Approach

This work is for professional men who desire to be accountable, change a habitual reaction, and take a radical step for life and health. 

  • Discreet and collaborative, not controlling

  • Respectful of your personal history, and guided by a whole-person approach

  • Designed to restore a sense of self-agency

Why Anger and why only professional men?

After successfully practicing for 15 years, I realized a large portion of my clientele sought my services for anger regulation, stress management, and relationship skills. I also realized that most of my clients were high functioning men (active and retired military, first responders, medical providers, religious leaders, chefs, attorneys, artists, single, partnered, etc.). So, I decided to focus my practice to specifically this population. This seemed like a no-brainer.
