Role of Anger Management in Cultivating Resilience among young people: Counselling Implications

Abstract

This paper examines the crucial connection between the ability to control anger and the capacity to bounce back from adversity, specifically in the  context of young people's  growth and progress. The research explores the impact of  good anger management  on  emotional  well-being,  adaptive  problem-solving,  and  enhanced  social  competence  in  young individuals, recognising the crucial role of resilience in overcoming adversities during adolescence and early adulthood. The study investigates the  effects  of  different  anger  management  techniques,  including  deep  breathing,  mindfulness,  cognitive  restructuring,  and confident speaking, on emotional well-being and overall resilience. The discourse highlights the need for early intervention and the involvement of anger management programmes, such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, and peer support programmes. This discussion provides suggestions for educators, parents, and professionals. It promotes the inclusion of anger  management  in  comprehensive  resilience  programmes,  emphasising  cooperation,  cultural  awareness, and  ongoing assessment to guarantee the overall growth and resilience of young individuals.
