Evidence-Based Treatment Planning for Anger Control Problems
by Timothy Bruce & Arthur Jongsma, Jr.
How well do you understand the interventions, goals, and documentation requirements of anger management? This video takes you through the treatment-planning process with detailed overviews, clinical considerations, and case vignettes with clients needing help with anger management.
Working with problematic anger requires particular clinical skill and confidence, and treatment planning for this population is a notorious challenge. Expert clinicians Drs. Timothy Bruce and Arthur Jongsma offer welcome guidance in this new video focusing on evidence-based anger control treatment.
With their detailed outline of the essential elements of anger management plans, you’ll get solid tools to support your clients, as well as your own professional development.Bruce and Jongsma offer a thorough overview of the clinically significant features of anger—including its emotional, cognitive, behavioral, and physiological components—that correlate to relevant Axis I, II, and III DSM diagnoses. While noting that treatment plans must be tailored to each client within the context of an authentic, empathic relationship, they present a six-step treatment planning process geared toward informing them with the latest empirically supported treatments (ESTs). A brief history of the EST movement provides further clinical context.
Sample treatment plans abound in this video, along with the clinicians’ expert commentary on the most researched ESTs for anger control. Through a series of live demonstrations, you’ll understand the ways in which anger issues can appear in clients’ presenting problems, and you’ll witness key interventions related to cognitive restructuring, relaxation training, psychoeducation, role-play, and communication skills building. Bruce and Jongsma provide commentary on the vignettes, naming important points in the therapy and offering perspectives on how your own interventions may vary. Definitions, literature critique, and relapse prevention are covered, too, for a well-rounded set of tools you can immediately use to support your clients’ improvement while meeting even the most stringent professional requirements.
If you’ve been searching for anger management resources or want to create evidence-based treatment plans with confidence, look no further than this one-of-a-kind video.

Timothy Bruce and Arthur Jongsma. Here, the two experts tell you everything you need to know about building treatment plans that pass muster with funding sources and serve as a valuable resource for supporting clients with anger control problems.
