Each stage of an anger management program is crucial to help you recognise your anger triggers, develop anger coping strategies and to sustain these changes long term.
Stage 1: Awareness and recognising causes of anger triggers. This is about identifying your triggers, the impact anger has on you and your relationships and understanding the situations/environments which your anger arises in. It’s also about recognizing the physical and emotional signs of potential anger.
Stage 2: Understanding responses. Exploring the underlying causes of anger, such as stress, frustration, relationship break down, interpersonal conflicts, or deeper psychological issues, is key to making changes in how you respond. This allows you to prepare for situations that might bring up an anger response within you.
Stage 3: Cognitive Behaviour Therapy Restructuring and Strategies
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy is an evidence-based approach that helps with useful strategies to better manage anger in a healthier way, that has better outcomes. You learn about your thoughts, feelings, behaviours and replace them with more rational balanced thoughts and feelings and better chose of words to use. Ultimately this allows you to be in control of anger, rather than anger controlling you.
Stage 4: Maintain long term changes of anger management
Being consistent with strategies learned in better handling anger in real life situations take practice and patience. Keeping a record of how you manage anger situations, and the frequency helps to keep you on track with your changes. When you regularly practice healthier responses to anger, you create new habits and behaviours over time.
Stage 5: Relapse Prevention
When you relapse back into old unhealthy patterns of anger, this is a relapse, it can happen and it’s important to take action on this, so it doesn’t repeat. A prevention plan involves self-monitoring, revising what you have learned and practicing it again and check-ins with your therapist – all these support areas will help you maintain your changes and stay on tray.
