Frequently asked questions

Can anger rehab help if I shut down instead of lashing out?

Yes. Anger comes in more than one form. While some clients act out, others withdraw or internalise their feelings of anger. These anger management issues often go unnoticed but can still affect mental and physical health. In group therapy and individual sessions, we help you understand your responses, explore your thought patterns, and find better ways to manage your anger — even if it’s silent.

Can I still work or study while attending this program?

It depends on the type of treatment and the severity of your anger management issues. Some clients need inpatient care with daily therapeutic structure, while others benefit from outpatient anger management treatment that allows time for study or part-time work. We'll help you develop a plan that balances your goals with the support you need.

If you’re managing a dual diagnosis or co-occurring anger and anxiety, you may benefit from our flexible dual diagnosis support stream.

Do you offer anger support for people with PTSD or trauma?

Absolutely. Anger and addiction often overlap with trauma responses. If you’ve experienced family violence, loss, or neglect, those events may have shaped how you express and process emotion. Our programs include targeted support for mental health conditions like PTSD, and we work with clients who’ve survived complex trauma, including those in our domestic violence trauma program.

What if I don’t have substance issues but struggle with anger?

Anger management treatment is still valuable even if you don't use substances. Many people seek professional help to address intense reactions, emotional regulation, or conflict patterns that affect work, family, or wellbeing. These issues can stem from unresolved trauma, chronic stress, or a co-occurring mental health condition. Whether or not addiction is involved, treating mental health and behavioural drivers together leads to stronger outcomes.
