Description:

It was once believed that anger was a primary human emotion. We now know that it is the most obvious human emotion, but other emotions are always driving it, namely sadness and fear. Neuroscience is demonstrating that some of the most challenging behaviors, like anger and aggression, are biologically based fear responses more related to fear-based dysregulation than intractable behavior. When working with anger, we can often fall into a cycle of pushing the agitated person to submit to subdue the aggressive expression of their anger. Like steam in a pressure cooker, the anger builds up, and when the fear driving the submission has lifted (or the person or consequence that is feared is gone) the next level up on the Fear/Stress Response Cascade is Fight. Many of the people we serve and support have been caught in a Submit – Fight cycle that brings them, and often those who love them, to our doors for help. This training combines the latest neuroscience with interventions to defuse the lose-lose of power struggles and move people out of the Submit – Fight cycle to a safe Flock by addressing the fear driving their anger. Together we will learn interventions to explore the context .


Participants will be able to identify and address: 

  1. The impact sadness and fear have on the brain, body, and behavior of all of us.   
  2. How to use the Anger Onion to recognize and address the fear driving anger
  3. Identify and address ways to increase felt safety and cooperation by practicing collaborative, non-adversarial approaches to anger and aggression
  4. Safe replacement behaviors to safely engage the energy that is produced by anger. 
  5. Techniques for helping themselves and others experience felt safety
