Anger Management/ Domestic Violence

This group challenges men to become less reactive during conflict, take responsibility for their own thoughts and behaviors, learn new conflict resolution skills, evaluate any "thinking errors" that may underly the problem,and become more aware of the negative effects of their abuse. I accept only voluntary clients, no court-mandated domestic violence offenders. The atmosphere is supportive, blending education and therapeutic "processing". Group is more effective than individual or couples therapy for this issue. The group facilitates self-disclosure and accountability and provides a format in which men can support and challenge each other to change.
