One of the fundamental choices available to coaching clients is one-on-one coaching versus a small group classes. There are several differences between these types of coaching and in the type of experiences in each. However, both types of coaching have a lot to offer; the choice should be made on where you will get the maximum benefit and which offers best learning experience.
What Individual Coaching Offers
Individual coaching is based around a strong relationship between the coach and the individual, and demands a strong interaction between both parties. It includes a great deal of “face time,”. The complete experience is very much a free flow of information to and skill enhancement exercises for the individual and should be designed to be highly focused on the participant's needs. Confidentiality is considered to be more secure.
At times the individual coaching experience can seem a little overwhelming because the attention of the coach is fixed firmly on the client but this is what’s needed for the end result to fully develop the needed skill sets in self-awareness, self-control, social awareness and relationship management. These are the core topics of coaching for anger issues.
Group Coaching and Its Benefits
Conversely the use of group coaching offers a very different experience. Joining a group allows each individual to experience a shared encounter with individuals with similar problems. And while the techniques and tools used by most coaches will be very similar, individuals not only are aware of how the coaching affects them, they also get to see how it’s affecting other group members. Role playing and peer-supported learning has a number of benefits: it provides a less pressured environment and the group often becomes an extended support network to reinforce the lessons and tools first introduced by the coach. Confidentiality is perceived to be less secure especially among well known, high-profile clients.
Private one-on-one sessions are more beneficial for executives, physicians, attorneys and other high-profile clients and for those individuals who may have difficulty speaking before others, while group classes may be useful for most individuals.

Anxiety And Depression Often Precede Anger
Anxiety and depression are both common symptoms of a wide range of psychiatric disorders. In addition, anger and depression are discrete disorders that are commonly seen in most mental health settings.
While anxiety and depression are not commonly associated in popular publications relative to anger management, anxiety or depression often precede feelings of anger, rage, hostility and or stress.
Anger Management coaching or small group classes that use Emotional Intelligence as the prime modality for assessment and intervention, indirectly address both of these important contributing factors in skill enhancement for self-awareness, self-control, social awareness and relationship management. These are the four domains of emotional intelligence.
Emotional Intelligence assessments which include a Pre and Post Test in conjunction with a structured client workbook as well as ancillary training material, are the most effective models of intervention for persons experiencing problems in recognizing and managing anger, recognizing and managing stress, mastering assertive communication and increasing empathy and emotional intelligence.
Successful clients almost always show a decrease in anxiety and depression following skill enhancement coaching in Emotional Intelligence.

Anger Management Vital To Promoting Good Health
A recent mental health report from the Office of the U.S. Surgeon General (U.S. Public Health Service) has its emphasis on prevention and health promotion. The Surgeon General, in a clarion call for prevention initiatives, stresses the importance of psycho-educational interventions in the community for a range of problems.
Anger Management is one such intervention, notable for its wide applicability to a variety of constituencies for both primary and secondary prevention. For example, Anger Management techniques are needed desperately by couples and individuals with anger issues, human resource personnel, business owners, managers and supervisors, employees, attorneys, physicians, hospital nursing staff, teachers, probation officers, correctional staff, police officers, high school and college students, counselors, community leaders, parents and people living in age restricted communities.
Community sites such as schools, social service organizations, churches, libraries, and social clubs provide convenient venues for workshops and classes. Most anger
management classes, group or private, are usually held in private provider's offices.
For some individuals, improved health may be an important incentive for participation.
A recent study at John Hopkins University found that most men who experienced heart attacks or strokes had problems managing anger. Thus unhealthy anger has serious health implications and needs to be addressed proactively.

Anger Management vs. Conflict Resolution
Even the Internet needs help in learning the differences between Anger Management and Conflict Resolution. Anger and Anger Management is related to useless anger. This anger can be directed towards persons or property. It does not require a dispute between one or more persons.
In contrast, Conflict Resolution relates to disputes between one or more persons. The Resolution of the conflict requires that all participate in resolving the dispute. The dispute may or may not involve anger.
Conflict Resolution is generally provided by trained Mediators who are often Attorneys who specialize in Mediation or Conflict Resolution. Most cities have free Mediation Services offered through its City Attorney or District Attorney’s Office.
Anger Management is much newer than Conflict Resolution. It is a class or individual coaching designed to teach skill enhancement in anger management, stress management, assertive communication and emotional intelligence or empathy.

What is Assertiveness?
Assertiveness is a way of thinking and behaving that allows a person to stand up for his or her rights while respecting the rights of others.
Non-assertive people may be passive or aggressive.
Passive individuals are not committed to their own rights and are more likely to allow others to infringe on their rights than to stand up and speak out.
On the other hand, aggressive persons are very likely to defend their own rights and work to achieve their own goals but are also likely to disregard the rights of others.
Additionally, aggressive individuals insist that their feelings and needs take precedence over other people’s. They also tend to blame others for problems instead of offering solutions.
Assertive attitudes and behaviors are at the heart of effective advocacy. A person with an assertive attitude recognizes that each individual has rights. These rights include not only legal rights but also rights to individuality, to have and express personal preferences, feelings and opinions. The assertive individual not only believes in his or her rights but is committed to preserving those rights. An assertive attitude is important in recognizing that rights are being violated.
The passive person is so concerned with being liked and accepted that he or she may never recognize the need to advocate. The assertive person clearly expresses his or her rights or needs. They tend to face problems promptly and they focus on solutions rather than problems.
The following will enhance your assertiveness skills. Assertive listening is one of the most important advocacy skills we will discuss. The goals of assertive listening are:
(1) letting the other person know that you want to understand his or her point of view;
(2) understanding accurately what another person is saying;
(3) letting the other person know that he or she has been understood. Remember that understanding is different from agreement. You can understand what another is saying but still disagree with him or her.
