Anger Management for Couples
The Couples Program
The Couples Program is uniquely tailored for couples
having problems managing anger and escalation.
Couples learn to change and to improve the ways they
handle anger.  The group is an intensive program
designed to enhance and support loving relationships. It
is intended to assist you in understanding the role that
anger plays in your relationship and how it contributes to
destructive cycles of interaction.

The Group is presented in lecture and experiential
formats. Couples will learn to explore their negative and
positive anger patterns, how to communicate in ways
that foster intimacy, how to avoid the common traps and
pitfalls of a close relationship, and how to achieve and
enjoy a conscious relationship. The group is designed to
assist couples in discovering the “real” issues that lead
to anger in a safe and nurturing environment.
Intensive Couples Workshop
The couple's group offers an exciting opportunity for participants to explore their anger patterns, and to re-channel
them to strengthen their relationship. Restructuring ways of being together in order to enjoy the satisfaction of a loving
and fulfilling relationship is a major goal of the Couple’s Group.
Who Should Attend:
Any couple who feels caught up in an anger cycle

If you want to make a good relationship better

If you want to save a troubled relationship

If you are planning to marry and yet argue a lot
“This workshop was one
of the most important
things we have done for
ourselves. It gave us true
insight into our anger and
helped us to become more
joyful in our relationship.”

The number of couples is limited. Make your reservation
early. Once the group is filled, a waiting list will be kept
for future groups.
Each individual will work with his/her partner in
learning how to
communicate in a more
positive way. They will
examine their “anger buttons”.
They will examine how they
learned to be angry in the first
place and they then will explore
how anger is keeping them from
experiencing joy and intimacy
in their relationship. Couples
will learn new ways of living—without anger.
The Couples Anger Management Group is provided for
couples to explore their own positive and negative anger
patterns in relationships. They learn what pushes their
partner’s anger  “buttons” and they then learn to
communicate in ways that foster intimacy. Through the
exercises with each other, couples begin to learn that the
frustrations they experience with their partner are the very
same frustrations they experienced as a child with their
primary caretakers.
