Anger Management
At times you may experience excessive anger or irritability. Often
anger is an emotion that masks other feelings, such as sadness, fear,
or anxiety. There are techniques you can learn to help manage anger
in order to reduce the frequency of this experience. Children often
exhibit anger due to not having other communication skills to express
themselves. They also don't often recognize what their feelings are
and thus cannot express them in an appropriate way. Anger management
therapy for children often consists of feeling recognition and communication
skills in addition to techniques to use when experiencing anger. Relaxation
skills are often taught as a tool to use when angry. These skills
need to be practiced daily in order for them to be effective. If you
or a loved one seems to be irritable or angry most of the time please
