Healthy Anger

It is clear that poor anger management can quickly lead to violence. Bernard Golden has worked on effective anger management for over 20 years, runs regular workshops for families and professionals, and teaches clinicians-in-training. Geared towards patients and teachers, this highly readable book is full of practical information and clear step-by-step guidelines. We learn how to study our own experience of anger, and to detect anger in our children and teens, who may not recognize the emotion in themselves. He also explains how to understand "child logic", how to talk about anger and forgiveness, responding to escalating anger, rewarding good behaviours, and recognizing those children and teens who need professional help. This complete, comprehensive guide will be interesting not only to parents and teachers, but also to clinicians who work with children and teens, as well as adults.
