Metropolitan MFT is Starting Another 12 Week Session Anger Management Group in NYC

New York, NY, August 31, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Anger Management Program: Resolve Your Anger Today (Group Format)

Anger is a normal feeling that serves as a red flag to an individual that their boundaries are in conflict, they are being wronged in some way, and their needs are not being met. Anger becomes a symptom and problematic when it is used as a defense mechanism to address issues masking more vulnerable feelings that need tending. This is the anger they address in the anger work.

The anger work assists clients understand what is driving their anger, identify the pain and hurt underneath the anger, and how this perpetuates the reactive and dissatisfying pattern of relating with their partner and others.

About the Program:
The Anger Management Program addresses anger in the context of one's life and relationships (additional psychotherapy work might be required depending on the nature of what is driving one's anger). In this program members learn all about their anger and how to address it so it no longer wrecks havoc in their life.

They learn how to resolve their "anger" by learning where it comes from, how it gets triggered, its function and by addressing its underlying cause. This process assist members address their masked vulnerable feelings, change how they relate to others, and get their needs met. They finally are able to be themselves and invite acknowledgement, acceptance, nurturing and intimacy into their life and relationships.

The program assists them stop hostile and aggressive behavior, recurring arguments and fights, relating by attacking and defending, and pushing loved ones away. Members learn how to take control of themselves and their life, and build warm and loving relationships.
