What is Anger?
Anger is a normal, healthy emotion. It is a common reaction to when we have been insulted, wronged, hurt or treated unfairly. When we know how to control and manage our anger it can actually play a positive role in our lives, to help us to stand up for ourselves, fight against injustices, and to recognize when there is a need to make changes in our lives.
Many people do not know how to control their anger. Instead, they let their anger control them, and violence often is the result. When people act in anger, they seldom are thinking rationally about what they are doing and what the consequences will be and then regret the consequences later. When anger leads to the loss of self-control people can get hurt, relationships get ruined, and lives become destroyed. Suppressed anger can manifest itself into emotional and physical problems, and unresolved anger is often expressed in alternative ways, through sarcastic, cynical or critical remarks, and passive-aggressive behavior. Once intermittent explosive behaviors are understood and controlled, clients can self-assess the causality behind their angry feelings. This leads to becoming better adjusted and capable of expressing angry feelings in a calm, assertive way, while being respectful of others and engaging in appropriate and useful communication.

Testimonials
I am not angry anymore.
ABS Patient
I am so glad that alternatives are available for my clients. I often find it best to recommend immediate enrollment in ABS outpatient services for defendants arrested for domestic violence, assaults, or sexual offenses. This helps them not only legally but emotionally and behaviorally. I was instantly able to find services at ABS for clients that speak English, Polish, Russian and other languages.
Defense Attorney
The hardest decisions I must make are pertaining to the welfare for children suspected of abuse or neglect from homes shattered due to anger, domestic violence, addiction or sexual abuse. Especially when blame is pointed in all directions. Having birth parents’ cooperation with ABS Human Betterment Programs always helps with decisions leading to reunification.
