Tracking # 20-683231
Course overview
Reducing frequent and intense anger and its destructive consequences can lead to improved physical and mental health of individuals and families. The purpose of this intermediate level continuing education course, developed using information from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, is to outline the components of a 12 week cognitive behavioral anger management group treatment model for substance abuse and mental health clients who are experiencing anger control issues. Elements of weekly sessions are described in detail with specific instructions for group leaders, tables and exhibits that illustrate the key conceptual components of the treatment, and between-session challenges for group members. In addition, a brief outline of research demonstrating clinically significant anger reduction effects as a result of CBT interventions is presented.
