Anger Management Coaching

(Available in English and French / Disponible en anglais et en français)

Understanding Anger — Transforming Reaction into Awareness

At Clinic Altera, we see anger not as a flaw, but as a signal, a messenger for unmet needs, boundaries crossed, or pain unspoken.
Our Anger Management Coaching program helps clients understand these patterns and develop new ways to respond that protect relationships, enhance self-control, and restore inner calm.

Led by Nadina Ramessar, M.S.W.,  our Psychosocial Support Supervisor, this service blends clinical insight, practical tools, and compassionate coaching to help you build sustainable emotional regulation skills.

What Anger Management Coaching Involves

Our approach begins with a systemic and psychosocial assessment to explore your stressors, triggers, and relational patterns related to anger and conflict.
Together, we focus on:

• Understanding your emotional landscape: examining how anger functions and what it protects.

• Increasing self-awareness: identifying early warning signs and emotional cues before escalation.

• Developing adaptive skills: learning techniques to manage physiological arousal and regulate strong emotions.

• Building external resources: identifying supports and environments that promote calm and accountability.

• Encouraging constructive expression: transforming reactive or destructive behaviors into clear, assertive communication.

Sessions combine psychoeducation, skill-building, and reflective dialogue that support both immediate coping and long-term growth.

Our Trauma-Informed and Systemic Lens

Anger does not exist in isolation. It often reflects deeper experiences of stress, shame, trauma, or disconnection.
At Altera, we approach each client with curiosity rather than judgment, helping you recognize how your nervous system, life history, and environment shape your reactions.

Our work is relational, trauma-informed, and culturally attuned, ensuring that each strategy aligns with your personal story, values, and context.

Court-Mandated & Legal Documentation

For clients participating in court-mandated anger management or other legal processes, we can provide the documentation and progress reports required by lawyers, probation officers, or the court.
All sessions are conducted by licensed social workers who adhere to professional and ethical standards set by the Ordre des travailleurs sociaux et des thérapeutes conjugaux et familiaux du Québec (OTSTCFQ).
