Overview for Anger-relevant Interventions for Children & Teens: Healthy Ways to Manage Anger - Dr John Taylor

A brief description about this Activity.

This 1-hour module is designed to provide any counselor or therapist with easy-to-teach concepts applicable to a wide range of anger-relevant behaviors. Anger is always a secondary response to a perceived primary hurt or pain. The best intervention is to help the client discover how to use it wisely, rather than attempting to act-out reflexively, ignore it or stifle it. This module shows you how to clarify the functions and uses of anger and encourage wise use of anger energy. Anger’s energizing, focusing, and protective functions are important for clients to understand. This module provides helpful analogies to assist clients in moving to a new, higher level of wisdom about the anger they are experiencing. Goals of anger therapy include helping clients gain an improved sense of control over their anger, so they can channel it into pro-social, constructive expressions while at the same time reducing or eliminating the source of hurt to which the anger is a secondary emotional response.
