"Individual Anger Management Program:
Resolve Your Anger Today!" (Group Format)

Anger is a normal feeling that serves as a red flag to an individual that their boundaries are in conflict, they are being wronged in some way, and their needs are not being met.

The anger work assists clients understand what is driving their anger, identify the pain and hurt underneath the anger, and how this perpetuates the reactive and dissatisfying pattern of relating with their partner and others.
