I am honored to write the foreword to Raychelles book. I have had the distinct pleasure of working with Raychelle and seeing her precise, forward thinking counseling skills in action. As a high school counselor, we constantly deal with a spectrum of anger issues. Raychelle is always cool, calm, and collected vital character traits one must possess when defusing angry teenagers.
Anger is a normal and sometimes necessary emotion. It is when it interferes with school, family, and social life that its a problem. Raychelle approached me years ago with the idea for this workbook. She had been implementing her tools and techniques throughout the school year, noting the ones that were effective, and tossing the ones that werent. Each activity in The Anger Workbook for Teens is a tried and true method they simply work.
The Anger Workbook for Teens is a phenomenal tool to help teenagers explore, gain knowledge, and ultimately control their emotions. Learning the root of the problem is essential in alleviating it. It will teach readers where their anger stems from and instantly recognize situations that provoke them. In addition, the activities are not time consuming, cheesy, or overly methodical.
Truth be told, I received a copy of the manuscript to write this forward in April of 2009, six weeks before my school year was ending. I had a student who was constantly sent out of class for his anger outbursts and had tried everything I could think of to help him. Frustrated myself, I opened the copy I had of Raychelles manuscript and found a few activities. We worked on his Family Tree and recognized that his father reacts the same way he does. Next, we talked about the stages of anger and quickly realized that his button pusher was when he thought teachers were embarrassing or dismissive. We worked on different ways to ask questions in class and control his emotions. By then he seemed willing and able to explore his part in the constant referrals. He realized that his body language and smart-alecky outbursts played a large role in irritating his teachers and worked through more appropriate ways to get his questions answered and needs met. He didnt get sent out for the rest of the year and thanked me for helping me not get so mad and stuff. A highly regarded compliment from the toughest of critics!
Whether you are a teenager, teacher, parent, or counselor, you will find this workbook helpful. It is by far the best anger workbook for teens that I have ever come across. I am thankful to have such a useful tool! How awesome it is to be willing to gain control over your anger as a teenager? Kudos to all of the teens willing to go out of their comfort zones and combat it!

your anger profile
for you to know
While each persons experience with anger is different, its important to recognize your own personal profile so you can learn to head off anger before it gets the best of you. Assessing your anger will help you become more aware of how much it drives your behavior.
Terrence was having a really bad day. Mr. Williams, Terrences English teacher, noticed that he seemed angry about something. Oh no, thought Mr. Williams, Terrence is in one of his moods. Hes so smart and talented, but his anger is really hurting him. Hes going to get into trouble if he doesnt turn it around.
After class, Mr. Williams called Terrence over and said, You take everything so seriously, Terrence. Your anger is beginning to get in the way of your schoolwork, and Im really worried about you. Youve been suspended three times this year and youre constantly in the principals office. Let me help you. What do you say?
Terrence knew that Mr. Williams was right. So he nodded his head and said, Yeah, okay.
Great, Mr. Williams said. Well begin by taking a good look at your anger. Once we see what effect it has on you, we can start to come up with a plan to help you manage it.
for you to do
This activity will help you gauge how much of a problem your anger is and begin to understand how it affects your life.
Read each statement and check either Yes or No.
The more frequently you checked Yes and the higher you rated yourself on these scales, the more anger is driving your life. By committing to doing the activities in this book, you will learn skills that will help you get a grip on your anger.
