Anger: Assessing Catalysts for Optimal Outcomes

Anger: Assessing Catalysts for Optimal Outcomes

We often view anger behaviours because of an individual having limited problem-solving skills or as an artifact of learned behaviour. Although this can be the case, frequently anger is a symptom of a trauma, which is often overlooked during the assessment and treatment process.  Inadvertently this negatively impacts the young person’s self concept and increases tension between parent/teacher and the child. Understanding the catalysts of the anger, facilitates empathy and support from caregivers, thus maximizing treatment and intervention effects.

Description

It is well known that anger outbursts and other behaviours that are associated with anger are often the result of trauma. However, because society has little patience for such anger related behaviours there is a pressing need, placed on caregivers to redirect and manage the anger to reduce its threat to others and the community.  Frequently this intense focus on stopping the anger immediately results in a narrow and limited understanding of the anger’s catalyst (Tull, M., 2020).  Participants will learn the utility of assessments that can identify anger as a stand-alone issue or as symptom of trauma. The treatment and support for both types of anger will be explored using videos and case studies while applying the modalities of CBT and ACT. Participants will help construct a case study where anger is the by-product of a trauma and where anger is a stand-alone issue. Participants will be able to explain how the assessment measures and process helps to identify the underlying trauma, while taking a trauma informed approach to provide anger management support. 

Learning Outcomes 

  1. Identify and assess anger as a stand-alone issue and/or as a symptom of trauma.  
  2. Explore creative anger management and techniques that parents and teachers can support. 
  3. Develop a plan for trauma with a specific component focused on anger treatment. 
  4. Participants will learn how the focus on anger can have a positive impact on the overall trauma.
