Anger Languages Understanding Why We React the Way We Do & How to Break the Cycle

By: Dodge, Cynthia A.

You don't just "get angry." You express anger in patterns- patterns that shape your relationships, your reactions, and your sense of control.

Concept Introduction

In Anger Languages, psychotherapist, Cynthia A. Dodge, Ph.D. presents a compelling new framework: anger is not a single emotion, but a set of learned, repeatable patterns- distinct "languages" through which distrjess is expressed and managed.

Some people explode. Others withdraw. Some retaliate. Others carry the weight of guilt that was never theirs to hold. Each of these is an anger language.
