Anger Psychology

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy is a relatively young practice among therapy models. It was developed by psychologist Aaron Beck in the 1960s, and it is the model used by most psychologists in modern times. It has shown to be particularly successful in the treatment of depression and anxiety because these disorders are fed by distorted thought patterns.

Anger is an emotion experienced by kids and adults alike. When something or someone interferes with an individual in a negative manner, it can cause them to become angry. Anger is a normal response to such a situation. However anger can be classed as a mild or intense irritation. Depending on the individual, the circumstance and their emotions, anger may cause a person to become enraged or even furious. People who become angry behave in different ways. Some lash out or become extremely defensive.
