STOP is essentially an anger management and emotional skills program run over 10 weeks with material that has been developed over several years from the experiences and education of multiple counsellors and mental health professionals.

 

This program is designed specifically for those who find it difficult to manage their emotions, especially anger, grief and discouragement. In turn, relationships suffer and people get hurt. The truth is that a person cannot be in a healthy relationship unless they themselves are healthy/working towards being and doing better. 

​

Throughout the 10 weeks this program runs, you will:

• discover why you feel they way you do in certain situations

• learn the difference between feelings and emotions

• learn practical tools and strategies to make different choices

• create and maintain healthy relationships

​
