Anger is about power and loss of self-worth. Most people who "throw their weight around" don't want resentful obedience from loved ones; they want open-hearted cooperation and the feeling that they are valued. In this workshop, we will explore issues of control, the function of anger, and active/passive aggression. You will learn an approach that helps clients use their deepest values as a vehicle for change. Even deep in argument, partners can learn to negotiate differences without putting each other down.
