Anger Management – Fee for Service

What is the Anger Management Program?

This program focuses on learning skills to self monitor for problematic thinking and behaviour.  It includes identifying problematic thinking and behaviour, learning of new skills such as impulse control, coping and assertiveness skills, so that anger can be expressed in a constructive way, as opposed to destructive.

How does the program work?

 This program consists of 6 one hour sessions, delivered once a week.  Options for program participants include attending session at the John Howard Society office, or doing the program virtually if the participant is not able to access the office.  The program fee is paid in cash or e-transfer prior to sessions.

Why does JHS run this program?

The John Howard Society believes that in providing this skill-building program, participants who are experiencing problematic anger can learn to manage their emotions and communicate better.  This contributes to healthier in all relationships, and to the participants feeling better about themselves.

Who is eligible?

 This program is available to individuals within the Algoma community.  The age limit for this program is 16 and up, though there have been acceptations due to extenuating circumstances.
