Psycho-Active Anger Management™
Shaping Specialists. Transforming Lives.
Imagine a sculptor standing before a rough, unformed block of stone. At first, it’s just mass—heavy and undefined. But in the right hands, with training, patience, and the proper tools, that raw material is slowly shaped into something extraordinary.
That’s what it means to become an Anger Management Specialist.
Many professionals begin with a general or outdated understanding of anger—its roots, its purpose, its complexity. Through our trauma-informed anger management training, they leave with deeper clarity and a comprehensive toolkit for transformation. Whether you're a therapist, peer specialist, or coach, you'll gain strategies to help clients regulate, reflect, and grow.
This is the heart of Psycho-Active Anger Management™—our signature approach to anger management certification for professionals.
What Is Psycho-Active Anger Management™?
Developed by Dr. Richard Pfeiffer and grounded in over three decades of practice, Psycho-Active Anger Management™ is a holistic and neuroscience-based model that brings together mindfulness, development, and relational intelligence. It's more than a method—it's a mindset.
Unlike many traditional programs that focus solely on behavioral control, our method engages both the client and the practitioner in a process of self-discovery, integration, and emotional transformation. It's ideal for anyone seeking a mindfulness-based anger intervention that goes beyond surface techniques.
This approach:
🧠 Uses neuroplasticity to reshape reactivity patterns
🌱 Applies the Integral Model and developmental lens to anger’s origin and meaning
🧘 Incorporates mindfulness and emotional self-awareness tools
🔎 Addresses shame, shadow, and unmet attachment needs beneath anger
🗣️ Teaches real-life skills for assertive communication and conflict resolution
If you're looking for a best anger management course for therapists or want to guide others through lasting change, this is your foundation.
