Childhood Anger Management Counselling in Newcastle

Everyone gets angry, but for some children, anger can become overwhelming and lead to problems at home, school, and with friends.

If your child struggles to manage their anger, our team of experienced child counsellors and psychologists at Newcastle Psychologist & Counselling can help, through specialist childhood anger management in Newcastle.

It’s normal for children to experience anger, especially as they learn to manage their emotions. However, when anger becomes frequent, intense, or leads to destructive behaviours, it can be a sign that your child needs extra support.

Signs of Unmanaged Anger in Children

There are a number of signs that children struggling with anger issues may display, including:

  • Frequent tantrums or meltdowns
  • Yelling, screaming, or swearing
  • Physical aggression, such as hitting, kicking, or throwing objects
  • Difficulty calming down
  • Destroying property
  • Social isolation or difficulty making friends
  • Problems at school, such as getting in trouble with teachers or disruptive behaviour.

How Childhood Anger Management Can Help

Our child counsellors and psychologists in Newcastle understand the challenges children face with anger. We offer a safe and supportive environment where your child can learn healthy ways to express and manage their emotions.

Through individual therapy or play therapy, we can help your child to identify triggers for their anger, develop healthy coping mechanisms for dealing with frustration and anger, improve their communication skills, and practise relaxation techniques to manage their emotions.

By learning to manage their anger, children can improve their relationships with family and friends, have a better time at school, develop better emotional regulation skills, build self-esteem, and reduce anxiety.

Childhood Anger Management Newcastle

At Newcastle Psychologist & Counselling, we take a personalised approach to therapy, tailoring our treatment plan to your child’s individual needs and age. We may use a variety of techniques, including:

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT): Helps children identify and challenge negative thoughts and beliefs that contribute to their anger.
  • Play Therapy: Provides a safe space for younger children to express their emotions and learn coping mechanisms through play.
  • Social Skills Training: Helps children develop skills to communicate more effectively and resolve conflict peacefully.
  • Relaxation Techniques: Teaches children techniques such as deep breathing and mindfulness to manage their anger in the moment.

We believe in a collaborative approach and recognise the importance of parental involvement in your child’s therapy, and will work with you to develop strategies for supporting your child and managing anger at home.

We can also offer individual or family therapy sessions to address broader communication and behaviour patterns within the family unit.
