Breaking Free from the Anger Trap
What you’ll learn

Knowing what anger actually is, you will then be positioned to match your use of anger with your goal of living inside mutually respectful relationships.
-
You will become proficient in identifying the damaging effects of suppressed anger, then choosing more honest and constructive means of letting your needs be known.

This course has changed the way I view anger, and I hope to generalize the information within into my daily life. I will come back to this course as needed as there was so much excellent information contained within it.

Thank you Dr. Carter! Lots to absorb, but I’m realizing clean assertive anger management is a lifelong process and Rome wasn’t built in a day.
It’s really all about resolve – you made it clear I can manage my anger with dignity and concern for the other person-I’m the only one that can do it and it takes commitment. Thank you for this course!

It seems like a good fit. Time will tell … what drew me too this course from the others is the presenter. He has a very soft caring way of talking about anger . He makes me want to listen and learn from him. It’s important for me to like and feel comfortable with the instructor … that’s half the battle. When I feel comfortable with the person presenting I will be open and honest with my responses for learning
