What are Anger Management Classes?
by BroydeMcDonald
What are Anger Management Classes?
Anger management classes are designed to teach educational skills to manage anger with. It is not a psychotherapy session. Classes run for about an hour or two and are repeated for at least ten sessions, depending upon your needs.
Who needs to take the classes?
If you are instructed by the courts or your employer to take a course you should take one.
If you have a lot of problems with people and you feel like you can listen and communicate better, develop better judgment, better manage your expectations, or be more empathetic, then our classes are for you. You will improve in all of these areas and more.
Is there any difference between individual counseling and Anger Management Classes?
The primary difference is that the class is done in a group setting unless it is an online class.
With individual counseling it is one on one, like having a personal coach guide you through the different lessons.
Are there different ways to take an Anger Management Class?
Yes, there is individual coaching, home study courses, group classes, and study courses that are done completely online.
How are the online courses?
The online courses will teach the same things as the group classes, but they are done completely online in our online classroom.
How do I know that Anger Management Classes are going to help me?
You should expect anger management classes to help you because they have helped 96% of the people who have taken them in the past.
All you need to bring with you is a good reason why you want to change. Those who came to the classes with reasons why they wanted to change were successful in accomplishing their goal.
The methods we use have been tested with experience and evidence from the past.
How can I tell if I have an "Anger Problem"?
This question can take a long time to answer as there are many ways to tell. What you should do is see if your anger leaves you feeling disturbed in your mind or body.
When you become angry, do you get out of breath, sweaty, dizzy or nauseated? Do you feel depressed, anxious, guilty or ashamed? Are you angry for too long or too frequently? Are your relationships threatened because of anger? Do you lose control of yourself when angry?
If your answer to a lot of those questions are yes then you can use some help with managing your anger.
How does anger affect people's health?
Anger that is not controlled is bad for you. Heart disease is a major problem that is linked to anger. In fact, in men younger than 55 years old anger is a leading cause of heart attacks.
Anger has also been linked to strokes as well.
What are the costs of anger management classes?
Anger management classes are not costly. They run from $35 -$195 per class.
