Anger is a natural human emotion, but letting it control you can lead to negative consequences. Mentalyc's FREE Anger Stop Signs Worksheet equips therapists with a valuable resource to help clients recognize the early warning signs of anger and develop healthier coping mechanisms.

  • Observe: Focus on the present moment without judgment, observing your thoughts and feelings.
  • Proceed Mindfully: Choose a calm and constructive response to the situation.
