ANGER MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS
Not only did I learn a wealth of skills to deal with my anger, but I also improved my relationship with
my wife.” Gerry L.
Anger is a natural human emotion but being chronically angry is not healthy. How you respond to anger is based on how you think and feel. Our innovative anger management program is based on years of research and experience with individuals of all ages. In this program, you will learn the mechanics of anger, how it occurs, and how you set yourself up to become angry. If there are family of origin issues that are residues of the past, the relationship between your anger then and your anger now will be examined. You will also explore the hurt that underlies the anger and learn tools that will assist you in controlling and resolving your anger once and for all.

The Individual Program
There is an individual anger management program available for persons of all ages. Here individuals work one-on-one with an experienced therapist for 8-10 sessions.
They explore many anger issues, some of which are underlying feelings, triggers, impulse control, risk taking, relaxation techniques, etc.
We approach Anger Management in terms of Phases. Individuals may attend 8-10 sessions on an Individual or Group basis (Phase I). After completing Phase I, individuals receive a Certificate of Completion. They then have the option to continue into a Support Group (Phase II) if they wish. Phase II is a continuing support group for those who wish to continue their work on resolving their anger. This group meets weekly.
For those who need an accelerated format, MFTNY offers intensive, focused all-day workshops or two five-hour session blocks.
MFTNY has a special affinity for the working trades and provides support services for Unions of all types. We have had many requests from a broad and diverse union based clientelle seeking support for their members with anger related issues.
MFTNY offers an online Anger Management Class for individuals who cannot attend classes because of busy work schedules, for those who are home bound because of a disability, life demands, shifts at work, or because of geographic location. This class contains the same material that is presented in the weekly sessions.
MFT NY also provides Court Mandated Anger Management Services
