self-defeating, and dangerous anger traps?Drawing on the gold

emotive behavior therapy (REBT), this workbook is chock-full of
powerful tools, exercises, and self-assessments to help you
overcome destructive anger, once and for all. With this guide,
you’ll discover skills for identifying and avoiding needless
anger; staying cool when anger heats up; and forging a stronger,
more capable, and rational sense of self.If your anger is getting
in the way of your relationships, your career, your health, and
your happiness, The Cognitive Behavioral Workbook for Anger can
help you take charge of your anger—and your life.
If you are going through a painful breakup or divorce, you may feel
like the life you once knew is crashing down around you. You need
help to gather the pieces and "rebuild" yourself from the ground
up. Rebuilding features Bruce Fisher's "divorce process rebuilding
blocks," a proven-effective, nineteen-step process for putting
one's life back together after divorce. Now the most widely-used
approach to divorce recovery, the "rebuilding" model makes the
process healthier and less traumatic for those who are divorcing or
divorced-and their children. Over two decades of research and
practice are combined with feedback from hundreds of thousands of
men and women who have used the book on their own, or in one of
thousands of Fisher divorce recovery seminars worldwide. This book
also includes Fisher's detailed Healing Separation model-the first
of its kind to offer couples a healing alternative to the usual
slide from separation to divorce. This fourth edition, revised with
the assistance of psychologist and marriage and family therapist
Robert Alberti, continues Bruce's tradition of
straight-to-the-heart response to the needs of his clients and
readers. If you've been struggling to rebuild your life after a
divorce, this book offers just the right balance of
shoulder-to-cry-on and kick-in-the-pants self-help!
