Can you use this certification from the Anger Management Institute to teach Anger Management classes?
…Yes, absolutely. Currently, there are no state laws that regulate anger management providers. Therefore, trained and certified anger management providers are needed to offer programs, classes and courses.
What makes our organization reputable?
… Our programs have been accepted and approved by courts and correctional institutions through-out the USA and by the U.S. Probation Office in Tacoma, Washington; the Cook, Joliet and McHenry County Correctional offices and courts in Illinois. Our core trainers are experienced, professional marriage and family counselors and anger management specialists: Lynette J. Hoy, NCC, LCPC, CAMS-V, Steve Yeschek, LCSW, CAMS-IV, and Glen Cannon, LCPC, CADC, CAMS-IV. Lynette is the co-author of all the What’s Good About Anger? editions and author of all workbooks and trainer manuals. Lynette and Steve have trained hundreds of clients, students and professionals in anger management.
Will the courts accept this model?
There is no single model of anger management that is the accepted “standard” for state courts in any state courts in the country. There are various researchers and noted authors in anger management, who all have very different views of the strategies needed to effectively manage anger. Our model is quickly becoming more recognized and accepted as a leading intervention for anger management, and to date, we have not had a single participant of any of our programs turned away for using the What’s Good About Anger – Anger Management model, classes and distance-learning courses. Our model uses some of the research-based interventions and skills for anger management. Our model/program is evidence-based! If the credibility of your program or agency is every questioned, you can quickly remind the courts that the model you are using has been accepted and approved by courts throughout the USA; is being recognized for training of U.S. Probation officers and is approved for the training (providing CEs) of mental health professionals nationally by NBCC and for social workers by NASW.
Interestingly, most anger management clients do not come from the courts. Most clients are either self-referred or referred by their employer.There is no single model of anger management that is the accepted “standard” for state courts in any state courts in the country. There are various researchers and noted authors in anger management, who all have very different views of the strategies needed to effectively manage anger. Our model has been approved and endorsed by NAMA and our presenters are approved as Supervisors, Consultants and designated as Certified Anger Management Specialist-IV and Diplomates by NAMA.

Those trained by our Institute have had their programs and classes approved and accepted throughout the USA.

Why should I get certified as an Anger Management Specialist by the Anger Management Institute?
…This specialized training will assist you in working with clients, individuals and groups that specifically have issues relating to anger and stress management. Anger management is not psychotherapy; therefore, most clinicians are not properly trained to work with such clients. Our certification is ideal for educators, clinicians, parole, probation and correctional officers, clergy, substance abuse and domestic violence counselors, health professionals, human resource managers and anyone who wants or needs to help clients with anger related problems. Our model uses proven and effective techniques to teaching clients skills using our copyrighted curriculum. Our outcome studies show that a significant number of WGAA students and clients all have demonstrated improvement using our skills and techniques. Our training helps you to reframe anger and motivate others to change. We are now quickly growing and offer excellent anger management training. We will actively help you understand how to market your organization, list you in our directory and provide discounts on all client workbooks and support materials.
