Anger Management Essentials is a professional development program that offers training for therapists, mental health professionals, pastors, and agencies. The program is designed to certify mental health professionals in the Anger Management Essentials model. The curriculum bridges the gap between clinical theory and practical application, featuring insights from professionals on neuroscience. Participants will learn to teach how to address chronic maladaptive anger and aggressive behavior through the application of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Emotional Intelligence principles. The program provides an extended duration for behavior modification, focusing on the development of empathy, anger regulation, and communication skills.
Are you interested in offering anger management services but don’t feel qualified or prepared? Anger Management Essentials (AME) is a three-day live certification training for those who are interested in providing anger management services.
