Anger Management Therapy in Derby
Anger is usually a surface emotion. We work underneath it — at the fear, hurt, shame or unmet need that's actually firing the response.

More than just count to ten
Lid-pressing techniques have a place but rarely create lasting change. We use hypnotherapy, EMDR and NLP to address what's driving the reactivity — so calm becomes the default, not the discipline.

How sessions are structured
- Step 1
Map the trigger pattern
What sets it off, and what does it cost you when it lands?
- Step 2
Find the root
Often anger is a learned response to something older — we name it and work with it.
- Step 3
Rewire
Hypnosis and EMDR to soften the trigger; NLP for new in-the-moment responses.
