Course Description
Substance use and abuse often coexist with anger and violence. Anger and violence often can have a causal role in the initiation of drug and alcohol use and can also be a consequence associated with substance abuse. Individuals who experience traumatic events, for example, often experience anger and act violently, as well as abuse drugs or alcohol.
Clinicians often see how anger and violence and substance use are linked. Many substance abuse and mental health clients are victims of traumatic life events, which, in turn, lead to substance use, anger, and violence.
After completing this training you will be able to:
- Identify how anger and violence and substance use are linked.
- Articulate the difference between anger and aggression
- Describe the various myths of anger and how to deal with them
- Identify actions and events that trigger anger.
- Describe how to conduct anger management sessions that can help a person channel their negative energy in the right direction.
- Describe how women and men channel anger differently and how to deal with both genders during anger management sessions.
- Apply knowledge from this course to practice and/or other professional contexts.
