Introduction to the Principles of Anger and Anger
Management
Anger is an emotional state that varies in intensity
from mild irritation to intense fury and rage.
It is a useful emotion when channeled appropriately.
It can also be a debilitating emotion, which, when
acted upon can have serious consequences for the
person, their physical health, their day to day
functioning, those around them, mental health and
primary care services as well as the wider society.
Anger management is the collective term used to
describe the assessment and treatment of anger -
based upon Cognitive Behavioural principles.
We provide an overview of Anger Management,
including
·
definition;
·
an overview of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy
and CBT Models;
·
the clinical assessment of anger (including
a role play presentation);
·
a review of anger measures;
·
treatment suitability considerations and
case management;
·
case formulation; and
·
the main treatment interventions.
