Anger Management

Not sure if you're anger is normal or detrimental to your health and the health of those around you?

You need help managing your anger if you...

  • Frequently argue with others at home, work or anywhere

  • Strike your spouse, partner and/or children

  • Threaten and/or intimidate family members, colleagues, neighbors, etc.

  • Hold in your anger, then explode at a later time

  • Dwell on your anger (refuse to forgive; replay situations over and over in your mind; formulate ways to get back at people)

  • Engage in self-defeating behaviors (absence from work/ school; withdrawal from family/friends/social situations)

  • Throw or break objects during angry outbursts

  • Drive recklessly when losing your temper on the road

  • Have run-ins with law enforcement

Free Yourself from Unhealthy Anger

Anger is a normal human emotion. But expressing anger in unhealthy ways not only damages your own health and well-being, but often brings pain and suffering to others.

​

Aggressive anger can lead to acts of violence. Passive anger is unhealthy, too, and can be detrimental to your relationships.

​

Samaritan’s Anger Management Program helps you gain critical tools for managing your anger in healthy ways. For example, you will learn to:

​

  • Explore your anger "triggers" 

  • Practice techniques to calm yourself

  • Communicate assertively versus aggressively 

  • Develop coping strategies

​

Anger Management is delivered one-on-one or in a group setting where opportunities to share with your peers enriches your learning experience. The group meets for 12 evening sessions.
