Anger Management (Non-intimate Partner Violence) Program (Online only)
This Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) based anger management program is to assist participants with defining and identifying natural and parasitic anger. For most, parasitic anger is the reason you have been court ordered to complete this program or in doing some self-reflection, you may have recognized parasitic anger is harming your personal and possibly your professional relationships as well.
Batterer’s Intervention and Prevention Program (BIPP)
Our discussion-based groups focus on personal change to end abusive behavior. Participants are assisted in taking full accountability for their battering behavior as the result of using irresponsible patterns in thinking and interacting which have caused harm to family members and others. Harmful thinking patterns and behaviors are challenged and responsible alternative ways of thinking and interacting are developed. The ultimate goal of the program is "Stop the Violence".
Critical Self-Reflection Program
This evidence-based program is a minimum of 12 hours in length. The cognitive behavioral exercises are designed to allow participants the opportunity to challenge thinking and behaviors which have caused harm to themselves and others. In addition, participants will be challenged to develop cognitive processes for responsible decision-making and to promote pro-social, responsible behavior.
There are two (2) different tracks offered: 1) Critical Self-Reflection and 2) Critical Self-Reflection – Substance Abuse Emphasis.
Individual Counseling Services
You are unique and so are the emotional struggles you face. Psychotherapy is a unique human experience. The conditions of therapy allow us to step out of the roles we inhabit in our daily lives. When conditions of safety and trust are part of your therapy, the potential for a new beginning arises, a new way of understanding your life and the dynamics that continue to shape you.
“I do my thing and you do your thing. I am not in this world to live up to your expectations, And you are not in this world to live up to mine. You are you, and I am I, and if by chance we find each other, it's beautiful. If not, it can't be helped.”
– Fritz Perls, 1969
