This optional Saturday session, “The Power of Controlling a Man’s Anger,” is a focused 30-minute presentation followed by an engaging 30-minute Q&A. This time will offer men insight into understanding the roots of their anger and practical strategies for mastering self-control. Recognising and managing anger isn’t just about restraint; it’s about building strength, creating healthier relationships, and becoming men of integrity who respond rather than react.
Benefits of the Session:
- Gain valuable tools to control emotional responses in stressful situations.
- Understand the link between anger and inner peace.
- Learn how self-control fosters respect and strengthens personal and professional relationships.
- Develop strategies to handle anger in a way that builds rather than destroys.
When we learn to control our anger, we don’t just contain frustration; we transform it into resilience and wisdom.

Join us for this powerful session and learn to channel anger into a tool for positive growth, strength, and self-respect.
This webinar, hosted by Emily Skahill from Mental Health America, focuses on understanding anxiety, depression, and anger in men. Dr. Kevin Chapman, a licensed clinical psychologist, presents on the adaptive nature of emotions such as anxiety, sadness, frustration, and anger. He emphasizes that emotions are meant to help individuals respond effectively to their environment. Chapman explains that dysregulated emotional responses, often seen in men, can lead to increased emotional struggles and challenges in relationships.
The presentation also touches on why men often externalize emotions like anger, the role of neuroticism in emotional disorders, and maladaptive coping strategies like alcohol use. Dr. Chapman suggests therapeutic approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and advises on engaging men in emotional health without using stigmatizing labels. He discusses how anger in men can often mask underlying anxiety or emotional vulnerability, and he offers practical strategies for family members to support men experiencing these emotions.
The session concludes with strategies for effective communication, resources for further reading, and Dr. Chapman’s contact information for those seeking more knowledge or assistance.
