Domestic Violence & Anger Management

The Evolution Group, Inc. sees a big the difference between problems with anger versus domestic violence.

An individual who has anger problems could have any number of contributing issues that are causal, such as a physiological problem, a chemical dependency issue, anger arousal issues, a Type A personality, high stress and poor stress management skills, etc.

Domestic violence is violence that is directed at family or significant others and is not due to anger problems (although an anger problem can contribute to the issue). Rather, it is an attitude, a mistaken attitude much like racism or classism and is usually learned and can be complicated by co-occurring disorders such as addictions, or other mental health issues. The treatment approach for these two separate issues is also very different and can be viewed in the related links on this web site.
