Anger Coach in the news, community and the web
- The Anger Coach has been selected to be the mentor for a "conflict resolution" circle on a new goal-oriented social networking site called thecircle.org
- The Anger Coach was recently interviewed for an upcoming article in the American Chemical Society Careers blog. Titled "Lost Your job? Shed Your Anger Before Seeking Another," the article emphasizes the importance of not taking anger about loss of your last job into new job interviews. The article, written by Patrick Young, will appear on the blog early in 2009.
- The Anger Coach has recently launced a new certification program for anger management community educators. This twenty-hour program is appropriate for anyone who is in the important position of educating youth and others about emotional control, dealing with feelings and positive ways to deal with life stress. The program is appropirate for community educators, teachers, after-school programs, driver's education programs, martial arts schools, home-schooling parents, marriage education programs and many others. This certification is not meant to qualify people to use our model of anger management in clinical situations (such as substance abuse counselors); rather it is meant for prevention and education programs. We are proud to announce that Mental Health Program of The Pasadena School District is the first group of "graduates" of this innovative program. More information by clicking here.
