Men’s Discussion Group

Dealing with Anger and other Feelings: An 8 week program

If you:

  • “Blow up” or “lose it” a lot
  • Find that anger is messing up your relationship with family members or is causing problems at work or with friends
  • Want to learn how to understand and deal with anger and other feelings in a positive way
  • Want to discuss other feelings whether or not they are related to anger
  • Want a safe comfortable place to share with other men

This group may be for you!

  • We explore what each person wants to get out of our sessions
  • We discuss why physical and emotional violence, when used to solve problems, causes even more problems for us and others
  • We stress the necessity of taking responsibility for our anger
  • We consider what “triggers” our anger
  • We share experiences, exercises, techniques, articles, books, etc.
  • We do not pressure anyone to do or say anything in the group that he does not wish to do or say.

The next session of this group starts on Saturday October 15, 2011 at 9:30am. If you, or someone you know, is interested in attending this group, please call for more information. There is no cost to attend this group. Many men have benefited from their participation over the years. For information call (519) 660-0874 x227.
