Course overview

The course contains a complete cognitive-based programme for introducing anger management to clients; teaching them ways of altering their thoughts, feelings and behaviour; educating them in reducing the impact of triggering thoughts or events, and improving social skills; developing cognitive and rational coping skills; developing a realistic philosophy of life; forgiving others; and avoiding recurrence of problem anger.

Different intervention plans are presented that can be used with different client groups, avoiding a “one size fits all” model. Sample client handouts, information sheets and step-by-step intervention schedules are provided.

Tips for managing the therapist’s own anger are also included: therapy can be a stressful profession. Therapists are only human and can have similar feelings to clients.

The course provides anger management strategies that can be used for self-referring adults or members of self-help or support groups. The course also covers working with non-voluntary clientele (clients referred by employer, courts, police, family, etc., adolescents and clients with various complex problems) though further specialist training and/or professional backup is highly recommended for “difficult” categories such as offenders.

Approaches include the SMART model (Kassinove/Tafrate), ACT, mindfulness, and CBT. Scripts and worksheets are available for ready use.

Entry criteria and suitability  

This course is for therapists, counsellors, coaches, teachers and other helping professionals who would like a source of practical knowledge for helping clients to control and manage their anger.  It is suitable for one-to-one practice or as a resource for group leaders. The course may also be taken for personal interest though it is an academic course and is not meant for people who currently have a significant anger management problem. This course is not a substitute for having professional counselling or psychotherapy. If anger is a problem for you now, consult a professional therapist or psychologist. A visit to your doctor might also be advisable as mood changes may be linked to various conditions, especially if the problem developed suddenly.
