ANGER MANAGEMENT/ CONFLICT RESOLUTION
The treatment goal is to develop coping mechanisms and skills to manage and control anger and be able to implement healthy responses.  Your employees will work on identifying current stressors related to anger issues, develop coping mechanisms to better control anger, and learn skills to be able to choose healthy responses.  Communication skills and working on boundary issues are some of the skills taught, as well as others developed within an anger management workbook.

Stress has been described by Frank Kenna, President of the Marlin Company, as “the emotional toothache of the work place that can lead to serious impairment causing big mistakes and serious injuries.”  As an employer, you can empower your employees to better manage their stress and, thus, ensure a more productive workforce.
