When anxiety makes you angry : CBT anger management skills for teens with anxiety-driven anger / Kelsey Torgerson Dunn, LCSW ; [foreword by Mallory Grimste, LCSW].

Dunn, Kelsey Torgerson, (author.). Grimste, Mallory, (writer of foreword.).

Summary:

Many teens who struggle with anger also struggle with anxiety--and their anxiety can actually drive their anger or make it worse. Using an approach rooted in evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), When Anxiety Makes You Angry helps teen readers identify the anxiety beneath their outbursts, practice acceptance of difficult emotions--rather than fighting or trying to ignore them--and learn healthy coping and self-regulation skills.
