How to Start Court-Ordered Anger Management Classes in Georgia

Anger is a natural emotion that every person experiences from time to time. However, left unmanaged, anger can lead to negative consequences such as irrational behavior and even violence. If you are charged with an anger-related offense, a judge might require you to take anger-management courses. Anger-management involves recognizing sources of frustration/anger and using coping strategies to deal with them. Georgia, in addition to locations all over the United States, has anger-management clinics that can be attended in compliance with court orders.

  Request a referral from your primary care doctor or from the judge who ordered you to enroll in anger-management. Referrals are useful because they will lead you to courses that are best-suited to your particular needs. They will also ensure the course you enroll in meets the judge's requirements.
