APDS Mindful Reaction

Stop LOSING yourself!

Is anger getting the best of you? Have you found yourself losing control of your temper in ways that damage your relationships, work, or peace of mind? Do you regret things you’ve said or done in anger?Are you worried that anger is holding you back or hurting people you care about?

If you answered “yes” to any of these, you may benefit from a structured Anger Management Program. Let us help you restore stability, build healthier habits, and reclaim personal control.

Who We Are

APDS Mindful Reaction – (Anger Management Program for teenagers and young adults) The APDS Mindful Reactions Program is a prevention program that utilizes the evidence-based Resiliency Model, which builds upon the internal strengths of a person and teaches participants to manage their anger in their everyday lives.

How APDS Helps

Our approach is evidence-based and compassionate. Some of the strategies and methods we use include:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): helping you recognize and reshape thoughts, beliefs, and patterns that trigger anger.

  • Mindfulness & Relaxation Techniques: breathing exercises, meditation, and other mind/body practices to calm the nervous system.

  • Trigger Identification & Management: learning what circumstances, thoughts, or environmental cues provoke anger so you can prepare or avoid.

  • Communication Skills Training: assertiveness, listening skills, and non-violent communication so you can express yourself without harm.

  • Conflict Resolution Strategies: tools to resolve conflicts peacefully and build understanding.

  • Support & Accountability: peer groups, coaching, or counseling to help you stay on track and navigate setbacks.

How You Get Better

When you go through the program, you’ll be supported in building:

  • Greater self-awareness—understanding what makes you angry, how anger manifests, and its effects.

  • Improved impulse control—being able to pause rather than react.

  • Healthier relationships—as you express yourself better and reduce harmful outbursts.

  • Reduced stress, guilt, or regret—because you’re managing anger rather than it managing you.

  • More productive and calm responses to triggering situations.

  • A stronger sense of emotional resilience.
