Working with your Anger can be revelatory and life-transforming. If you cannot control your angry behaviour at home or in the workplace then an Anger Management course will help you. At the end of the programme you will come out with skills that will help you to control your angry behaviour and reduce your stress and conflict. You will be equipped to transform your life and your important relationships. You will be better able to deal with domestic trauma, to understand why relationships may be breaking down and develop strategies to save them.
You will find that you have the power to transform your attitudes and behaviour. You can make choices, choose not to explode or run away, you don't have to be controlled by your anger. The Course also examines how anger often takes root in childhood experiences. Withdrawal of love, inappropriate punishments, rejection, bullying and belittling are historical issues that can fuel present-day anger. Ranging from those that are extravagantly violent in their anger demonstrations, to those who inhibit and contain their rage, the course helps you step through your fear and inhibitions to start the process of effectively dealing with your anger and that of others.
The approach is integrative, combining psycho-education with ideas from Gestalt, Existential and Body Psychotherapy. Use is made of CBT and NLP concepts such as belief patterns and visualizations. It focuses on where you are and what you need now. Just by reading this you have done 50% of the work, you have started a process of reflection on how you are in the world and accepted the possibility of change.
