Groups provide participants with the space to explore possibilities and to learn from its members.

Anger Management

Work with one of our trained professionals and learn more about anger so that you can manage your emotions in all your relationships. Our anger management program is a 10-week interactive group for adults. The goals for this 10-week program are:

• To increase awareness of anger expression patterns
• To learn how our anger experience is shaped by our development and what we can learn from    our family and environment
• To identify current and past situations that fuel anger
• To identify responsibilities in the current anger situation that resulted in either a self or outside referral
• To develop specific ways to de-escalate potentially violent situations
• To decrease verbal and physical manifestations of anger, aggression, or violence while increasing awareness and acceptance of emotions
 

Come learn more about yourself, anger and how to improve your relationship. This group is for those who have difficulty managing their anger and for those that want to learn more about anger in their relationships.  Court referrals and self-referrals are welcome, and a certificate of completion will be provided.
