Most anger addicts are unwilling to face the true depth of their problem. In the parlance of the recovery movement, they live in the middle of a river in Egypt called "De-Nial." Their tendency to blame others for their outbursts and to minimize the seriousness of the damage they are causing makes it difficult to motivate them to work for lasting change. The goal of the Anger Management Class - Four Hour Classroom Instruction based Half-Day seminars is to help participants understand the dynamics of denial and to accept responsibility for working to control their anger.

Anger addicts can change, given the proper motivation, tools and strategies. This seminars provides a step-by-step process that will help them to control their anger and begin to change their anger patterns.
