| This is a six-week group that will focus on helping adolescents ages 12-17 to identify, understand, and manage their anger, as well as a wide range of other emotions, as they traverse adolescence. There will be times when our adolescent anger management groups are gender specific and other times when they will be co-ed. In both instances, we incorporate discussion of internalizing and externalizing behaviors for both genders. For more information on gender specific groups, please read below. When registering, please indicate if you have a preference for gender specific or co-ed group in the comments section. Every attempt will be made to honor those requests however our primary focus will be placing teens in the group that is most appropriate for their age and maturity level. Girls Anger Management Groups This group offers psycho-educational components, role-play, honest discussion, and exploration of what it means to be growing up and how our emotions fit into that process. Girls in this age group often experience their anger internally so we incorporate activities and discussion focused on the ways in which internalized anger may be demonstrated such as: body image concerns, self-injury, and destructive relationship patterns. Boy's Anger Management Groups This group offers psycho-educational components, role-play, honest discussion, and exploration of what it means to begin entering manhood and how our emotions fit into that process. Research and clinical experience suggest that many boys often externalize their feelings and special attention is given in this group to examine the potential for fighting, drug and alcohol use, and other acting out behaviors. Note: If you are experiencing a mental health emergency, call 911 or go directly to your local Emergency Room or Community Mental Health Center. Prince William County Emergency Mental Health Services can be reached 24 hours a day at 703-792-7800. |
