Anger Management Classes

I’m a certified anger management specialist (CAMS-I) and a certified crisis intervention specialist (CCIS-II) through the National Anger Management Association. My class is about helping you identify the patterns in your anger, learn your triggers, and develop skills to manage them. See the full course outline below.

“Gill's innovative approach starts with tools to understand when and why you are getting overwhelmed. Using them has led me to what I consider major victories in using empathy, humor and assertive communication to keep from losing my temper and to lower my frustration. My quality of life has truly improved daily since I began this Anger Management Class!” -Anonymous

This class is only taught live. Next class starts ~July

Please note: this program is only for angry people. It is not open for continuing education.

Who Needs Anger Management?

When you think of anger management you may automatically think of an explosive person lashing out at others or someone with road rage. Anger shows up differently though. You may be explosive or you may be a stuffer, someone who pushes their anger (and other feelings) down and puts everyone else before them. Common anger triggers include:

  • injustice and unfairness

  • disrespect

  • stress

  • unmet needs

  • not having clear boundaries

  • minor annoyances that build up

  • allowing others to take advantage of you

  • poor communication (passive, passive aggressive, aggressive)

  • incompetence and time wasting

  • taking things personally

  • other people

Anger Management Can Help You:

  1. Build up your tolerance to stress and frustration so minor things don’t set off big reactions from you

  2. Learn how to communicate your needs, set boundaries and enforce them

  3. Learn how to let things go and not let other people’s behavior or words impact your entire day or keep you up at night thinking of what you wish you would have said

  4. Understand what your anger triggers are so they have less power over you

  5. Develop coping skills and tools for responding to triggering or angry moments so your anger doesn’t escalate

Biggest “aha” moments from past students:

“Realizing how much destructive thinking I do, and how much of what I am experiencing inside myself is anxiety that gets expressed as anger.”

“The way my son's challenging behavior over the past 8 years has become a true physical trigger for me and the ways to change that.”

“High baseline leading to explosion of anger --going from 90% to 100% not 10% to 100%”

“That I live at a constant high level of stress so that explains my reactions to some degree with incidents that happen. Also, how one incident in a day rolls into the next incident, escalating our emotional arousal levels.”

“Realizing there are proven tools and techniques I can use to reduce my anger.”

“The power of pausing. I have heard it many times before but this class really gave me some chances to practice and it felt good to do it.”

Class Reviews

“As someone prone to very destructive thinking, beating myself up and isolating under stress, signing up for the class was an act of desperation. I have been truly thrilled with the changes this class has made possible for me. I now have a toolbox full of strategies and methods to improve my life, plans for using them and proof that they work!”

“I wanted to thank you for this great class, Gill! I learned so much and I feel so much more hopeful about being able to grow and make changes in this area!”

“I think this is a fantastic class. I truly admire and appreciate your dedication to this subject and to helping people. It is especially great that you are a woman, as so many people do not realize the amount of RAGE that women carry around with them, and generally direct inward not outward.”

Why is it important to work on your anger?

People who struggle with anger are more likely to struggle with addiction, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. In fact, 87% of people with anger struggle with 1 or more mental health condition compared to 39% of people without anger.

Here’s a breakdown of this difference:

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to be sober? You do not need to be sober to enroll in the course. Anger is a major trigger for relapse and can keep some of us stuck in the cycle. You can still develop an understanding of your anger and learn coping skills if you’re struggling to stay sober. As you’ll learn in my program though, drinking is one of the 7 conditions that keeps us in our primitive brain. I recommend that you have at least 30 days sober before joining or if you have 3+ weeks, that you are very confident that you’re out of the back and forth.

Is this program just for drinkers? You don’t have to struggle with alcohol at all to enroll. This is an anger management program, the only requirement is to struggle with anger. We use drinking to cope with anger, but we also use self-harm, emotional eating, over-exercising, wall punching, and yelling at others. This program will focus on destructive coping skills in general, with drinking being one of them.

Is this program for women only? No. All are welcome. My community is about 25% men and we love our men in the group. They bring a lot of value, perspective and kindness. This program will cover both stuffing anger and escalating anger, so whatever type of angry person you are you’ll benefit.

I’m an influencer or a coach. Can I take this program? Due to the frequency that my work is stolen by other creators, I do not allow influencers or coaches in my programs. If you are genuinely interested in this program for your own benefit and not for continuing education or content ideas, then please reach out to me and we can discuss it.

What if your refund policy? I do not offer refunds.
