About the Conference
Clients with anger problems differ so widely that no one therapy or educaton model can treat them all effectively. Great differences exist between who have hidden, explosive or chronic anger issues.
Explore treatment strategies for 10 different kinds of anger problems: anger avoidance, passive-aggressive, paranoia, shame-based, deliberate, exitatory, sudden, habitual, moral and resentment. Learn how to devise and implement more effective treatment plans with angry clients by understanding the differences between the styles.
Course Objectives
- Differentiate between 10 different ways in which people experience and express their anger
- Utilize an anger questionnaire to help plan treatment priorities within the sphere of anger management
- Learn to help clients recognize the strengths and weaknesses of each anger style
- Help clients who utilize one or more styles excessively to become more flexible in their approaches to anger
