I understand rage very simply as 'an inability to process life's experiences' (Parker Hall, forthcoming)

Often, an individual is so full of unprocessed life experience consider the image of a pot, full to the brim) that one more thing, and it could be a very trivial thing, is the final straw and the lid flies off.

Empathic Anger Management offers you ten one-to-one support sessions to

1.      learn how to process your life experience

2.      support you to identify what you need from others and to ask them directly for what you want

3.      learn how to make better use of the support that is available to you from people in your life or to find a new source of support

Empathic Anger Management Process

There is an initial session where we get to know each other little and I introduce the programme to you. In subsequent sessions I will support you in learning how to process the back log of life experiences that have accumulated in your pot. This will substabtilly reduce the internal pressure that you feel and free you up to cope with the here-and-now more effectively.

reduce to process    and I ask you to identify what life events you have not yet been able to talk or feel through are in your pot and, with your agreement, we contract together to work with these. Each following session includes the 'here-and-now' elements of how the week has been in terms of anger management and the monitoring of the development of assertiveness skills;  and a 'there-and-then' element where we debrief and process one personal historical event at a time. Typically, even after the first session a client will say "I have never told anyone about that before" and express some immediate relief about having done so.

Empathic Anger Management Package

Ten  50-minute weekly sessions.

You will not completely empty your 'pot' during the ten sessions but you will learn how to process your life experience, to ask for what you want in a straight way and to make better use of support.
