THE ANGER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM Our Anger Management program is not therapy! Rather it’s SKILL ENHANCEMENT which means it’s a teaching course. It’s been designed to teach the student how to change his/her behavior. The first part is called “GAINING CONTROL”. This is where we teach about negative behaviors and how they contribute to our anger. This is immediately followed by the positive behaviors which are the responses one should use to counter the negative ones which come at us as attacks and stresses, or which we use toward others which create a conflict and the angry reaction in others. Next comes “STRESS MANAGEMENT”. Stress is a precursor to frustration and the angry reaction. We teach about stress awareness, acceptance and coping skills. This is followed by “EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE” (EQ) training. Everyone has some degree of EQ. This training is an enhancement of what we already have but few of us use in our interpersonal relationships. Emotional Intelligence really means understanding our own emotions and managing our behaviors based on those emotions, then understanding the emotions of others and managing our behaviors in those relationships. Finally, we have included lectures on improving our “COMMUNICATION SKILLS” so that we can become better listeners and speakers and avoid miscommunications.
