Stress/Anger Management for adults (Conquer your stress/anger before it conquers you!): Most of us learn how to express anger from our families and life experiences. For those who want to deal with anger in a different way, the Clinic is offering two separate anger management groups. Each is designed to help adults find more constructive ways to deal with anger. Group participants will learn skills and strategies to better express and respond to feelings of anger.
Successful Adjustment to Separation or Divorce Support Group: This group is designed to assist indi-viduals going through a divorce or separation to successfully adjust and adapt to changes in their lives. Par-ticipants will have the opportunity to identify feelings and stressors related to divorce or separation, learn strategies and skills for coping, and work to increase positive support and adjustment.
