MEN'S ANGER GROUP
Join us to explore how understanding and managing your angry feelings can transform your life and relationships. Our 8-week group offers a safe forum in which men can find ways to transform their anger through insight, self-expression, and awareness.
This anger management group is an in-depth look at the sides of us that can react so quickly in anger. If you experience frequent, intense anger and behave destructively to yourself or others when angry, you will benefit from this group. Some of us work very hard at holding in our anger on a regular basis and lose control occasionally. These occasional outbursts can be just as destructive to those around us and this group will look at each person's unique struggles with anger. The common thread is an inability to reflect inward and identify and voice the hurt that exists beneath anger.
Fridays: 6—7:30pm - New Group begins February 10!
Call 917-968-5599 for more information or register below.
This group will include:
- A look at your core way of existing in relationship to yourself and others.
- With others facing similar challenges with anger, we will explore wounds that have been protected by our anger.
- Identification of family of origin struggles and childhood traumas that have made a lasting imprint on who you are today.
- A look into the parts of you that become reactionary, resentful, why you try and control those around you, and what feelings of failure and shame has to do with it.
- An insight into gender differences, your biological drive towards aggression, and why you get so frustrated and stressed talking to your partner about feelings
- An introduction to the idea that anger is a defense and reaction to a deeper seated need or wound.
- Acceptance of your struggle with anger and the opportunity to really be heard.
- New ways to respond to emotional triggers in intimate relationships, the workplace, and family by identifying and owning feelings, setting boundaries, and communicating needs.
Workshop Details:
Pre-registration with payment is required prior to the start of the group. A payment plan can be made available…just ask.
Typically, clients are asked to register in 8-week cycles, which is why the payment buttons reflect $480 for eight group sessions, and $580 for the intake plus eight group sessions. This helps keep consistency within group members. If you are unsure of the amount of time appropriate for you, Larry Torrent, the group facilitator, can help you with this on the intake session.
