Take the Next Step with M.A.D. 2 ###### *"Over the last 6 weeks I have gone through some of the most intense emotions I’ve ever experienced... I can say it has been the most challenging time of my life. All of the things you teach in this class have given me so much strength in my ability to communicate under the most difficult of circumstances. I feel happy and confident."* ###### B. L. M.A.D. ###### *“This has been an immensely helpful class!”* ###### B. L. M.A.D. ######  *“Since completing your course, I’ve been so much happier.”* ###### B. L. M.A.D. ## **Ready to Take Control of Your Emotions?** ### Who are the M.A.D. classes for? ### What if I miss a class? ### Is this therapy? Will my insurance cover it? ### How is this different from traditional anger management? ### What happens after the class ends? ### What materials are included? ### How do I register? Anger control training available in classroom format and by individual appointment Learn how to reduce the intensity and frequency of your angry feelings and behaviors with our Manage Anger Daily (M.A.D.) classes for adults. You will learn how to gain mastery over troublesome emotions and improve your relationships at work and at home. Our M.A.D. training uses a textbook, over 100 pages of handouts, group participation exercises, and humor to help you develop a personalized anger control plan in a supportive, entertaining atmosphere. For graduates of the M.A.D. program who want to continue building their skills, we offer M.A.D. 2—an advanced class designed to deepen your mastery of anger control techniques in a supportive group setting. Our clients have transformed their careers, relationships, and lives with the help of our compassionate, evidence-based approach. Get the tools, guidance, and support you need to break the cycle of anger and build better relationships—at home and at work. Our classes are designed for adults who want to gain control over angry feelings, improve communication, and reduce conflict—whether at home, at work, or in social situations. You do not need a clinical diagnosis to attend. Many participants are professionals, parents, or partners simply looking to build healthier emotional habits. We understand that life happens. While we encourage attending all sessions for the full benefit, missing one class won't disqualify you. If possible, let us know in advance so we can share relevant materials or help you stay on track. We also offer individual sessions as make-ups. The M.A.D. class is considered an educational program, not psychotherapy. Because of that, it is not covered by insurance. However, some participants choose to attend both M.A.D. classes and individual therapy, which may be covered separately under their plan. M.A.D. is based on neuroscience and modern psychological research—not outdated “venting” methods. We focus on emotional mastery, cognitive-behavioral tools, and real-time skill building. You’ll laugh, reflect, and practice proven strategies in a safe and supportive group setting. You’ll leave with a personalized anger management plan and the skills to use it. Many participants report improved relationships and lower stress after just six weeks. For those who want continued growth, we offer M.A.D. 2—a follow-up class for graduates to deepen their skills. Enrollment includes a workbook, over 100 pages of handouts, interactive group exercises, and additional resources curated by your instructor. These materials are yours to keep and continue using after the program ends. You can contact us directly or visit our Schedule of Events page to see the next class start date. M.A.D. classes are held Tuesday evenings from 5:30 pm to 7:00 pm via secure video conference. Early registration is recommended as space is limited. - [HOME](/ "HOME") - [ABOUT US](/about "ABOUT US") - [SERVICES](/services "SERVICES") - [Anger Management](/anger-management "Anger Management") -

Now, we feel like a team again. I never thought we’d get here."* ###### Former Couples Client ###### *"This process saved our marriage. We’re communicating better, and I finally feel heard."* ###### Couples Counseling Participant ###### *"Gina made us feel safe enough to talk about things we’d avoided for years. Everything changed from that point forward."* ###### Private Feedback Shared By a Client ## **Take the First Step Toward Healing** ### Do we have to be married to come to couples therapy? ### Can couples therapy help if only one of us is motivated? ### What if we fight in the session? ### Is this covered by insurance? ### Will we have to talk about the past? Improve your communication, reduce conflict, and rebuild trust in your relationship.  Are you having trouble communicating with your partner? Does it feel like your relationship is drifting apart? Have you learned something upsetting that’s shaken your trust or confidence in your connection? Whether you’re married or unmarried, in a same-sex or opposite-sex relationship, couples therapy can help you get back to a place of trust, love, and mutual support. You don’t have to figure it out alone. In a safe and strictly confidential setting, our experienced therapists help you and your partner set goals for healing, growth, and reconnection. Every couple is different, but here are some common goals our clients work toward in therapy: We may provide practical assignments between sessions to help you integrate new skills and speed up your growth as a couple. ***Note:*** *All therapy is provided in an environment of safety and nonjudgment, regardless of sexual orientation or relationship style.* Relationships can be hard—but they’re also worth the effort. If you’re ready to work toward a stronger, more connected partnership, we’re here to help. No. We work with all types of couples—married, unmarried, long-term, short-term, same-sex, opposite-sex, and everything in between. Yes. It's common for one partner to feel more invested at first. We’ll help both of you express concerns in a way that creates openness, not defensiveness. Motivation often grows once therapy begins. It’s okay. Conflict is part of the process, and your therapist is trained to guide you through it constructively. Sessions are a space to express difficult feelings with support and structure. No. Couples therapy is not considered “medically necessary” by insurance companies. However, we offer a generous sliding scale and flexible payment options. Sometimes, yes—but only when it helps your present or future goals. Therapy is about creating change, not assigning blame. We’ll keep the focus on healing, understanding, and moving forward. - [HOME](/ "HOME") - [ABOUT US](/about "ABOUT US") - [SERVICES](/services "SERVICES") - [Anger Management](/anger-management "Anger Management") -

Microaggressions trigger anxiety for targets of bias and their allies as well. When microaggressions happen at work and threaten your livelihood your anxiety can skyrocket. Microaggressions are denigrating messages and behaviors directed at marginalized groups. That term came from Dr. Chester M. Pierce, distinguished Harvard Medical School professor of psychiatry and education. He first used the word in the 1970s to describe degrading comments and behaviors targeting black people. Dr. Pierce has over 180 publications, was the founding president of the Black Psychiatrists of America, a former U.S. Navy Commander, served on several advisory boards, and even helped develop the beloved children’s television program Sesame Street. An invited lecturer on all seven continents, he even has a peak named after him in Antarctica (Pierce Peak). He contrasted *microaggressions*, disparaging comments, and behaviors with macroaggressions or more extreme racist behaviors such as physical attacks and lynching. Examples of microaggressions include; ridiculing the way a disabled person talks or moves, referring to Muslims as terrorists, or assuming a black person must be of lower social status. Microaggressions hurt people. Recipients of microaggressions have told me it feels like: Marginalized groups are those who do not hold dominant power in a population. It’s easier to cope with disparaging comments when you have power, influence, resources, and support. Let’s say you’re the white male CEO of a company, and an employee calls you a bully. You might not like that comment, but your livelihood, safety, and social status won’t suffer. You’ll still be on top, and the employee may or may not get to keep their job—power matters. The uneasy awareness that someone has a negative bias against you can leave you feeling unsafe. For example, I provided career coaching to a 32-year-old black professional named James, excited about a new director position. He sought my help after a few microaggressions that made him question whether he could remain at the company. “I initially thought this would be the place where I would work until my retirement,” he said. James would arrive early in the morning to get ahead on the work he loved. “You’re in real early, James. I thought you people were always late,” his white boss said with a laugh. On another occasion, he asked his boss why he was the only director excluded from the company golf tournament. The boss replied, “well, I figured you people like basketball, not golf,” the boss replied. James felt shut out socially, treated like an inferior other, and hired to fill a token position as the only black director in the company. “I love the work, many of my colleagues, and the company mission. But now, I feel angry, worn down, and it’s shaken my confidence,” he said. Targets of microaggressions suffer stress symptoms, including inflammation, gastrointestinal problems, hypertension, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, health issues, and depression. When people treat you like an outsider, it takes a lot of grit to keep performing at your best. It’s stressful to feel on the defense continually.     Much of that stress stems from internal conflicts about how to respond. You can feel like you’re in a lose/lose situation. If you respond to the comments, you might worry about being labeled a troublemaker or suffer retaliation. If you don’t reply, you might feel humiliation and resentment. Maybe you feel guarded and distracted, wondering when the next microaggression will injure you. To lower anxiety around microaggressions at work, begin with these three steps: Once you identify the feelings and emotions and give yourself some comfort, you will still need a strategy to cope with microaggressions in the workplace. We can reduce our anxiety about any problem if we develop a plan and then work our plan. Having a plan lowers anxiety because it reduces the inner conflicts that magnify stress. The more arguments we have inside, the more anxiety grows. When you develop a plan to manage microaggressions at work, you want to consider your long-term goals. James wanted to try to stay in this job that he loved. He set a goal to learn how to manage the microaggressions from his boss more effectively. Others might decide the job isn’t worth it. You get to decide what works best for you. Consider the following when planning: During the mental rehearsal, it helps to visualize your best possible self. Imagine yourself feeling confident, poised, relaxed, safe. Visualize yourself feeling mentally sharp, clear-headed, calm, confident. Studies show that imagining your best possible self helps your performance and makes you feel better. Rather than seeing yourself through the eyes of a prejudiced person, visualize yourself as your most vital, sharpest, highest-performing self. It’s a way to take your power back and calm yourself. Allies support those in marginalized groups by taking anti-racist positions, opposing oppression, and listening to and amplifying their concerns and accomplishments. When you intervene with supportive comments, actions, or help, you can reduce harm. If you’re an ally, you may feel anxious about what to say when a co-worker uses racist language or other microaggressions. You might worry that the wrong comment could make things worse for your targeted colleague. Planning can help allies reduce their anxiety around microaggressions. Create a plan: Rather than just name-calling the offender, it works best to state what you find offensive about the comment or behavior. Speak for yourself, not for the person targeted. Saying, “you’re a racist,” does not help to change the culture and might lead to angry defensiveness. On the other hand, when you specifically state what you would prefer, it gives the other person a chance to change. When people change their behavior, their feelings eventually change as well. When we stop microaggressions in their tracks and invite the preferred behavior, we start the process of cultural change. Standing up to microaggressions at work can be risky. But not standing up to them is riskier. When we don’t say anything against microaggressions, we perpetuate the culture that tolerates them. When we say something, we become the change we want to see. - [HOME](/ "HOME") - [ABOUT US](/about "ABOUT US") - [SERVICES](/services "SERVICES") - [Anger Management](/anger-management "Anger Management") - [Corporate Solutions](/corporate-solutions "Corporate Solutions") - [Executive Coaching](/executive-coaching "Executive Coaching") - [Couples Therapy](/couples-therapy "Couples Therapy") - [Career Guidance](/career-guidance "Career Guidance") - [Counseling Services](/counseling-services "Counseling Services") - [Resources](/resources "Resources") - [Resources](/resources "Resources") - [FAQs](/faqs "FAQs") - [Events](/events "Events") - [CONTACT](/contact "CONTACT") - [Blog](/blog "Blog") - [Books](https://frazzlebrain.com/ "Books") - [Anger Management](/anger-management "Anger Management") - [Corporate Solutions](/corporate-solutions "Corporate Solutions") - [Executive Coaching](/executive-coaching "Executive Coaching") - [Couples Therapy](/couples-therapy "Couples Therapy") - [Career Guidance](/career-guidance "Career Guidance") - [Counseling Services](/counseling-services "Counseling Services") - [Resources](/resources "Resources") - [FAQs](/faqs "FAQs") - [Events](/events "Events") - [HOME](/ "HOME") - [ABOUT US](/about "ABOUT US") - [SERVICES](/services "SERVICES") - [Anger Management](/anger-management "Anger Management") - [Corporate Solutions](/corporate-solutions "Corporate Solutions") - [Executive Coaching](/executive-coaching "Executive Coaching") - [Couples Therapy](/couples-therapy "Couples Therapy") - [Career Guidance](/career-guidance "Career Guidance") - [Counseling Services](/counseling-services "Counseling Services") - [Resources](/resources "Resources") - [Resources](/resources "Resources") - [FAQs](/faqs "FAQs") - [Events](/events "Events") - [CONTACT](/contact "CONTACT") - [Blog](/blog "Blog") - [Books](https://frazzlebrain.com/ "Books") - [Anger Management](/anger-management "Anger Management") - [Corporate Solutions](/corporate-solutions "Corporate Solutions") - [Executive Coaching](/executive-coaching "Executive Coaching") - [Couples Therapy](/couples-therapy "Couples Therapy") - [Career Guidance](/career-guidance "Career Guidance") - [Counseling Services](/counseling-services "Counseling Services") - [Resources](/resources "Resources") - [FAQs](/faqs "FAQs") - [Events](/events "Events") - [HOME](/ "HOME") - [ABOUT US](/about "ABOUT US") - [SERVICES](/services "SERVICES") - [Anger Management](/anger-management "Anger Management") - [Corporate Solutions](/corporate-solutions "Corporate Solutions") - [Executive Coaching](/executive-coaching "Executive Coaching") - [Couples Therapy](/couples-therapy "Couples Therapy") - [Career Guidance](/career-guidance "Career Guidance") - [Counseling Services](/counseling-services "Counseling Services") - [Resources](/resources "Resources") - [Resources](/resources "Resources") - [FAQs](/faqs "FAQs") - [Events](/events "Events") - [CONTACT](/contact "CONTACT") - [Blog](/blog "Blog") - [Books](https://frazzlebrain.com/ "Books") - [Anger Management](/anger-management "Anger Management") - [Corporate Solutions](/corporate-solutions "Corporate Solutions") - [Executive Coaching](/executive-coaching "Executive Coaching") - [Couples Therapy](/couples-therapy "Couples Therapy") - [Career Guidance](/career-guidance "Career Guidance") - [Counseling Services](/counseling-services "Counseling Services") - [Resources](/resources "Resources") - [FAQs](/faqs "FAQs") - [Events](/events "Events") - [HOME](/ "HOME") - [ABOUT US](/about "ABOUT US") - [SERVICES](/services "SERVICES") - [Anger Management](/anger-management "Anger Management") - [Corporate Solutions](/corporate-solutions "Corporate Solutions") - [Executive Coaching](/executive-coaching "Executive Coaching") - [Couples Therapy](/couples-therapy "Couples Therapy") - [Career Guidance](/career-guidance "Career Guidance") - [Counseling Services](/counseling-services "Counseling Services") - [Resources](/resources "Resources") - [Resources](/resources "Resources") - [FAQs](/faqs "FAQs") - [Events](/events "Events") - [CONTACT](/contact "CONTACT") - [Blog](/blog "Blog") - [Books](https://frazzlebrain.com/ "Books") - [Anger Management](/anger-management "Anger Management") - [Corporate Solutions](/corporate-solutions "Corporate Solutions") - [Executive Coaching](/executive-coaching "Executive Coaching") - [Couples Therapy](/couples-therapy "Couples Therapy") - [Career Guidance](/career-guidance "Career Guidance") - [Counseling Services](/counseling-services "Counseling Services") - [Resources](/resources "Resources") - [FAQs](/faqs "FAQs") - [Events](/events "Events") 1.

New articles sprout daily describing the benefits of meditation. But where do you start? Most major religions have some sort of meditation, or meditative prayer practice, but is that going to give you the same beneficial effects you’ve been reading about? If you’re not a Buddhist, you don’t necessarily want to start attending a Buddhist temple to learn how to meditate. And maybe you don’t live close to a center that teaches Mindfulness, or Transcendental meditation, the two forms of meditation with enormous research data touting their benefits. So what do you do? Before I tell you how to meditate, and believe me, it’s really easy to do, I should tell you my qualifications for writing this post, so you can decide if this will work for you. Back in 1971, as a teenager, I was very curious about meditation. The Beatles were doing it, and a few of my friends started meditating and they seemed happier. With a mixture of curiosity and skepticism I signed up for the class in Transcendental Meditation. This technique uses a mantra, or sound that you think to yourself as a point of focus for your meditation. The mantra was provided by a teacher who determined the right Sanskrit word for me to think while meditating. From the first time I meditated I immediately noticed a difference in consciousness. The relaxation effects were similar to the feeling one might experience after receiving a massage, or acupuncture treatment. My skepticism vanished, and I meditated twice daily for more than 10 years. After having children, I meditated less regularly. After obtaining a doctorate in psychology, I attended a Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction training, adding mindfulness as a tool in my practice. Recently I completed a 9 week course called Compassion Cultivation Training developed at Stanford Medical School’s Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education. This training, based on Mindfulness meditation techniques, specifically cultivates a compassionate mind. You can find studies supporting the many benefits of this type of meditation here. So before I tell you how, I still recommend that you take a formal course in meditation for two reasons. First, having a teacher gives you the opportunity to ask questions, find out if you’re doing it right, and learn how to deal with anything that makes you uncomfortable. Second, you can benefit from meeting other meditat0rs. There is something very powerful about the experience of shared relaxation and meditation. It can help you form a support system to talk about the process, benefits and difficulties of maintaining a daily meditation practice. But until you can find the time to take a class in meditation, here’s an easy way to start right now: *First sit comfortably with your feet on the floor. I recommend that you start with 15 minutes as a target time, gradually increasing it to 20 or 30 minutes as you can tolerate it. It’s ok to recline, but you might fall asleep, and that’s ok too because if you fall asleep while meditating you probably need sleep. But if you just want to take a few minutes to refresh yourself and meditate, it’s best to sit.* *Next begin to settle your mind a little by inhaling through your nose for six counts, holding your breath for six counts and then releasing your air out of your mouth for six counts. You can do this cycle, (inhale, hold, exhale) six times to slow your breathing down a bit and settle yourself. Counting your breath can help you quiet your mind down a little and give you something to focus on, similar to a mantra.* *After the breathing exercise, gently draw your attention to your normal breathing. Notice the sensations in your nose, through your airway and into your abdomen. When your mind drifts, like it always does, gently draw it back to your breathing. When you notice that your attention is not on your breathing, do not judge yourself, or criticize yourself for doing it wrong, just notice where your mind is focusing and draw your attention back to your breathing. Continue until your designated time is up. Then let yourself sit quietly for a minute or two to adjust before you get up and start moving about your day. It’s that easy!* If you just can’t sit still for 15 minutes, just do it for five minutes. Set aside time every day to meditate. A client of mine likes to meditate in the car before he goes home from work. This helps him relax and keep his work stress from infecting his home life. Other’s like to start their morning with meditation to obtain some mental clarity and calm. Another client likes to meditate in the mid-afternoon for an energy boost. If you’ve always wanted to try meditating but kept saying, “maybe later,” then this time just stop and give it a try. Your own breathing can become a portable best friend to make you feel better fast.

What inspired you to write this book about your son? ###### G.S. When did you first discover that your son had a serious mental illness? What behaviors did he exhibit? ###### G.S. What feelings did you struggle with and how did you cope with those emotions? ###### G.S. What did you find frustrating about navigating the mental health system? ###### G.S. What did you find most helpful in your journey to help you and your son cope? ###### G.S. What advice would you give to other parents concerned about a child struggling with a mental illness? ###### G.S. Thank you Miriam for sharing your wisdom with our readers. I know that many families struggle to accept that their child might have a mental illness. Getting professional help and support can provide the coping skills and resources families need. Modern medicines and therapies can help those that suffer to lead full and meaningful lives. Here are some resources for families seeking help: When a parent discovers their child struggles with a mental illness it can be devastating. Parents need support to help them emotionally cope while they navigate the complicated mental health system. I am thrilled that Miriam Feldman agreed to this interview to talk about her riveting memoir, *He Came in With It: A Portrait of Motherhood and Madness*, a story about her talented son’s struggle with schizophrenia. Schizophrenia is an incurable mental illness characterized by hallucinations, delusions, thought distortions, bizarre physical behaviors, and extreme emotional reactions. The illness can often be managed by medications that reduce the hallucinations while controlling emotional extremes. Many patients can learn to live independently with strong support systems in place and ongoing medical treatment. When I met the extraordinary artist and writer, Miriam Feldman last year, I knew she held a lot of wisdom under her leonine crown of dark curls. We shared a panel discussion titled “Writing About Mental Health Issues” at the San Diego Writers Festival. Miriam read a portion of her stunning memoir to rave reviews by the audience. Parade Magazine named He Came in With It one of the best memoirs to read this year. I hope you enjoy our conversation! **M.F.** I originally was driven by the desire to put something out into the world that might make mothers like me feel less alone. The first few years of Nick’s illness I felt so isolated, like no one in my life had experienced this or could relate. I came to realize that almost everybody deals with mental illness in some form during their lives, but serious mental illness is rarely talked about. It is extremely difficult for the family, causes a lot of conflict and strife for everybody. I was very honest in the book about that aspect of things. Many marriages do not make it through, siblings deal with the fallout. My hope is that this book, which describes all of that in my own family, will opens portal for others to talk about it. **M.F**. If you were to make the list of red flags for serious mental illness and the list of normal teenage behavior, you’d have virtually the same list! I mean, they are all mercurial, impulsive, irrational. At the time, Nick’s drug experimentation seemed no different than his peers. We dealt with it as though it was normal. As far as I knew at the time, he was only smoking marijuana. We did what we could to forbid it, but honestly, as a child of the sixties, I didn’t think it was that big a deal. Of course, I have learned since that not only is marijuana very detrimental to developing brains, but the pot of today is exponentially stronger than it was in my day. As his drug use expanded, we started to address that as the problem. We sent him to rehab and to a therapist. We hoped it would be a teaching moment for his siblings. You see, I wasn’t considering the drugs in relation to mental illness because that wasn’t even in the equation then. Now, I see that he was absolutely self-medicating. I can even recall a conversation where he told me he was disturbed by his own thoughts, “the voices in his head.” I told him not to worry about his thoughts, what mattered were his actions. I said we all have weird thoughts, nothing to worry about. He was telling me he was hearing voices and I dismissed it. But how could I have known? In the beginning, my husband and I were at odds about everything. He thought we just needed to be tougher on Nick, I enabled every bad behavior. Neither approach was the correct one, it took many years to find a reasonable middle point. This takes us back to the importance of forgiving ourselves. Even if it is only intellectual, if in our hearts there is a part of us that will never quite believe it’s not our faults, we as parents have to continue to consciously remind ourselves to try and let go of that. It serves no purpose. **M.F.** We lived in such a state of emergency for years, I didn’t have time to process very much. I just stuffed it all down and soldiered on. I have a very clear memory of when I moved away from the chaos. There was a period, about five years in, when Nick had become stable on his meds, the girls were growing and off to college, and I felt like things had settled down. As the hurricane around me calmed I emerged as a shell of a person. I was completely depleted. I remember thinking, “okay, now if I can just tread water, keep things contained until I die, that will be success.” What a terrible succumbing that would have been. Luckily, I had started a yoga practice and was beginning to internalize some the precepts of yogic philosophy. One day I was walking to a friend’s house and decided to go barefoot. I wanted to feel the different surfaces on my feet, cement, grass, asphalt. Walking through the neighborhood I began to come alive a bit, just being in the moment and feeling the sensations. It ignited something in me. That night I decided that it would serve no purpose for me to just resign myself to the remainder of my life listlessly. Would my misery help Nick? Would having a zombie mother be good for the girls? I had wrestled with the guilt and responsibility all mothers feel for so long, but in that moment, it was crystal clear, this wasn’t my fault. I was allowed to have joy in my life. It wouldn’t hurt anyone; it would make things better. Since that time, I have actively sought the good. It’s not easy, but it is worth it. **M.F.** The biggest roadblock to parenting an adult child with serious mental illness is the HIPAA privacy statute. These standards were implemented with the intent to protect medical information, but in this case make it nearly impossible to manage your loved one’s medical care. Most often, the parents are the ones with the pertinent information about their offspring’s condition (symptoms, medication compliance, obstacles to care) and they are shut out of the process. It is important to remember that in the case of schizophrenia, the organ that is afflicted (the brain) is the organ that would allow them to understand and manage treatment. One of the symptoms of schizophrenia is anosognosia which is lack of insight or awareness of the illness. When Nick turned eighteen, we had a couple of terrible years when he refused treatment and we were helpless. Early intervention is crucial to recovery. The only way to force him into treatment was involuntary hospitalization. The criteria for that is stringent. One must be of imminent danger to themselves or others or be gravely disabled. I would seize every opportunity to try and get him into the hospital, but most of the time they would only keep him for the requisite 72 hours and then release him. This is one of the most important changes that we need in the mental health system. It is so difficult to obtain care, even when the patient is willing, that precious months or years are often lost before consistent treatment is secured. When Nick was a minor, we had more control, but his disease was in the nascent stages and we were really just scrambling to figure out what was going on. Once we knew it was serious mental illness our hands were tied. We spent a few years helplessly watching his condition deteriorate, and then miraculously at age 21 he decided to sign the HIPAA release. Since then it has been easier in some ways, but as they mature into adulthood you have to reconfigure the paradigm of the parent-child relationship. I don’t have the option of “letting him live his own life”, which is the transition most parents have to make. I have to calculate the formula for allowing him to be an independent person without opening up a path to calamity or decompensation. It isn’t easy. **M.F.** The single most helpful thing was the Family to Family program at NAMI. It is a 12- week educational seminar that takes you through all the aspects of this thing, the science, the medicine, the system, the laws. Knowledge is power and without that I would have been lost. It sent me into the game with some tools I could use. **M.F.** I’ll tell you, one of the only benefits of having serious mental illness in the family is that it gets your priorities in order! After a few years of pretending, I realized what a pointless waste of energy that was. Pointless because when the police have repeatedly taken your screaming son off your porch and into a squad car, the neighbors have pretty much figured out there is a problem. I was stretched to capacity already; I couldn’t keep up the façade. I had to reshuffle my objectives and prioritize. The things that got tossed onto the trash heap first were pretending, hiding, being ashamed, and trying to fix everything. Having a kid with schizophrenia makes you officially “embarrassment-proof.” Those things just don’t matter anymore. The thing I’d like to convey to other parents is that this is a very freeing moment. It really was a gift to clearly see what was important and what was pointless. We have to let go of how we thought it was going to be, who we thought they were going to be. This is how they came to us. It is our job to love them and help them as much as we can. The sooner we release our grasp on preconceived notions, the sooner we can move forward to meet our children where they are. Remember, they didn’t ask for this either. The real tragedy is for them. If, on top of that, they also have to shoulder our dashed dreams and disappointment it would be crushing. And I do want to say that practicing acceptance does not imply the abandonment of hope, quite the opposite. Once I made my peace with the reality of schizophrenia, I was able to find happiness and hope in lots of things. Nick’s smile still changes my whole day.

How did you first become interested in the psychology of disability? ###### Dr. GS: Tell us about your model of Disability Identity Development and why it’s helpful for those who work with people with disabilities? ###### Dr. GS: In your experience, what role does anger play for those with disabilities? In what way can it be helpful as a response to others? In what way do you think anger can be harmful? ###### Dr. GS: Thank you Dr. Gibson for sharing your insights with us! Readers, be sure to subscribe to get part two and three of this informative interview. In part II, Dr. Gibson shares more about how to cope with anger and disability. An interview with [**Dr. Jennifer Gibson, Clinical Psychologist**](http://www.disabilitypsychology.com/) Many people will suffer from a disability some time in their lives. Some are born with physical disabilities such as hearing or vision impairments. Others suffer injuries or illnesses that render them disabled, while some suffer debilitating mental illness like bi-polar disorder or schizophrenia. Many people living with disability suffer unique challenges managing anger and the angry behavior of others. Dr. Jennifer Gibson, an expert on the psychology of disability, generously agreed to this interview. I hope you find her comments as fascinating and informative as I do. **Dr. JG:** My interest in Disability Psychology evolved over many years. My career goal of becoming a psychologist started when I was eight, growing up in a family filled with dysfunction. I knew then that I wanted a different life for myself than the one I was growing up in. Through my limited knowledge of psychologists – my weekly dose of Bob Newhart, playing the role of a psychologist – I learned that understanding one’s problems is the beginning of change. And, though my speech was impacted by Cerebral Palsy, talking to others – and listening – were my innate gifts. Family members often confided their worries and problems to me; from teen pregnancy to hidden physical abuse. “Confidentiality” was my middle name. I valued people’s trust. It provided validation when many of my peers laughed and ridiculed my existence. I grew up an underdog. With this, my empathy for other’s struggle was inherent. Going to college was instilled in me from an early age. It was clear that I could not rely on physical abilities to get me through life as my family had. My parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles did not complete high school. The men worked construction and in factories; women were waitresses and “did hair.” Good or bad, balancing hot plates stacked up my arms was not my life’s destiny. I majored in psychology at the University of California, Irvine in the early 1980s. I did not set out to make a career of working with people with disabilities. My goal was to not be stereotyped as the “disability therapist.” However, when hired during my senior year as one of four Student Directors for the Women’s Resource Center, it readily became clear that my role was to provide programming for women with disabilities. Anger and Women with Disabilities was the first workshop on the docket. From there, I became known as the “go to” for all things disability on campus. For example, during this time I also served as Teaching Assistant for the Human Sexuality course. The instructor asked if I would sit on a panel to discuss sexuality and disability. This was followed by a cascade of Psychology and Social Ecology professors inviting me to speak in their classes. I geared presentations towards their given course topic… and disability. In graduate school, I financially sustained myself working for a litany of non-profits, serving people with disabilities. I applied for EVERY opened position. I rarely was called for interviews unless the work involved working with disability issues; Goodwill Industries, Fairview Hospital, to agencies providing life skills to individuals living independently in their own home. My steady work came from an Independent Living Center – a resource center for people with disabilities. And… this employment included health care benefits – my first “grown up” job. I held various positions there, including counselor and Peer Support Coordinator. I continued my graduate studies at the California School of Professional Psychology, Los Angeles. There I explored an emphasis in Community/Multicultural Psychology where I learned about Dr. Derald Wing Sue’s Racial Identity Development and cultural competence. I noticed similarities, yet significant differences with Sue’s model and the people I worked with. I, too personally identified. In the late 1980s, I researched disability identity development. Though I found research pertaining to the social impact of disability, I did not find any existing literature discussing identity development. And… the seed for my interest and research in Disability Identity Development was planted. **Dr. JG:** I developed the Gibson’s Disability Identity Development Model (GDIDM) over two decades while providing clinical services to people with disabilities. The model is intended to help mental health professionals better understand their clients with life-long disabilities so they can provide more competent clinical care. Educators, healthcare professionals and families have also found the model useful in their work with individuals with disabilities. [Gibson’s Disability Identity Development Model (2006)](http://www.myacpa.org/sites/default/files/ccaps_2011_convention_Myers_Laux_Murdock_REV_ACPA_2011_Disability_Idenitty_Handout_4-15-11.pdf) Will not associate w/others with disabilities (Fear of being stereotyped) • Shift focus from “being different” in a negative light to embracing self • Begins to view self as relevant; no more – no less than others • Begins to incorporate others with disabilities into life • Involves self in disability advocacy and activism • Integrates self into majority (able-bodied) world The GDIDM provides an understanding of clients with disabilities by giving insight into possible perceptions and struggles they may be experiencing. However, one should not assume that all people with disabilities must fit into a particular stage. Identity development of persons with disabilities can be fluid. For example: a person may have reached Stage 3 –  Acceptance, reverting to Stage 2 – Realization when faced with job discrimination or lack of dating partners. The feelings of “Why me?” and anger can resurface, creating much frustration for the client since they may have believed they had worked through such feelings. **Dr. JG:** Anger can propel a person towards change, or it can leave a person feeling defeated. Anger can play a large role in Stage 2: Realization. During adolescence through young adulthood, this may be the first time they truly understand the societal impact of their disability. This may be the first time they realize that others perceive them as different from their peers. Adolescence can be a challenging time for many people. This is often when we begin to wean from our familial worldview. We realize there are countless views and individual differences to explore. From what clothes to wear to politics, we discover who we are and the value of societal norms. Fitting in is often a priority. Adolescents/young adults with disabilities, may, for the first time begin to fully grasp the societal implications of what the disability label represents in their life. Stage 2 – Realization highlights some of the unique developmental stressors that may impact adolescents/young adults with disabilities. Anger may leave the young person feeling defeated at times. Self-hate and “why me?” can monopolize their thoughts, leading to isolation. Other times, anger can serve as motivation to fit in – to find ways of belonging. I provided an example in Answer #2 with how anger can resurface once a person who has reached Stage 3: Acceptance. A person can find themselves thrown back into feelings of anger when confronted with disability-related societal obstacles. Persons who experience later-onset chronic illness or acquired disability (CIAD) may find their sense of self suddenly and dramatically altered. These individuals may be faced with significant changes in their social and familial relationships and life roles. At the same time dealing with psychological distress, physical pain, prolonged medical treatment, and difficulties performing daily activities. Therefore, disability identity development for persons with acquired disabilities may resemble those with life-long disabilities; yet differ since they have a comparison of life with and without disability. **Jennifer Gibson, Ph.D.** is a Clinical Psychologist, adjunct professor, researcher, writer, international speaker, and workshop presenter.

What would you like the able-bodied to understand? How can we be helpful when we see others behave with cruelty toward an individual, whether in person or online? ###### Dr. GS: Many disabilities are not easily noticeable on the outside. Individuals might live with a mental illness, such as schizophrenia, or a brain trauma that isn’t noticeable at first. Deaf people can appear like the hearing. What are the unique concerns of those whose disabilities do not appear obvious? ###### Dr. GS: What are the unique concerns of those with a visible disability, such as a double amputee? ###### Dr. GS: That must feel so frustrating to be seen as less intelligent, simply because of some sort of limitation. You make some terrific points, Dr. Gibson. Thank you so much for this interview! ###### Readers, please like and subscribe to get Part III, the final piece of my interview with Dr. Gibson. Share this post with those you think might find it helpful, and please add your comments. We love to hear them! Part II of my interview with disability expert, Dr. Jennifer Gibson Dr. Gibson shared her personal story of living with disability in [Part I of this interview series](/managing-anger-when-living-with-disability-part-i). Please click on the link to read the first part of this informative interview on managing anger while living with disability. Here, in Part II, Dr. Gibson offers help for those struggling with strong feelings of anger and resentment. There are special gems of insight for able-bodied folks and those living with disability too. Enjoy! **Dr: JG:** I provide a safe space for individuals to express anger without fear of judgement or abandonment. Many people with disabilities have experienced critical stares from strangers leaving them feeling as if they were under a harsh spotlight. Some people make insensitive and critical comments. For instance – on a personal note, when I was pregnant there were several instances when strangers accused me of being selfish for having a baby. “How could you risk passing on whatever you have to your baby?” “How can you possibly raise that child?” they would comment, while not knowing one thing about me. *Some people with disabilities can often experience the opposite of the spotlight. They can feel invisible. Often spoken over and/or ignored.* People with disabilities may experience a sense of powerlessness over their lives. From dealing with medical professionals poking and probing one’s body, to social workers assuming a person with a psychological disability cannot manage/maintain employment and their finances, one can feel a lack of control over their own life. People with chronic illness or acquired disability often struggle through the five stages of grief. Outlined by Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, those stages include denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Though a person may reach acceptance of disability, they may often have “what if there is a cure” thoughts and a yearning to achieve the level of functioning they once experienced. Though one’s physical body may have acquired a disability, they have lived an able-bodied life up until the time of the accident or disease. Thus, those with acquired disabilities may successfully integrate disability into their sense of self while retaining an able-bodied perception of the world. I validate the individual’s thoughts and feelings while challenging defeatist thoughts by examining where they stem from. I encourage self-reliance and provide positive reinforcement. I encourage and build their decision-making skills, affirming they have power over their decisions. Power over their lives. **Dr. JG:** I believe that cruel behaviors are intentional acts. Unintentional behaviors that may insult and/or marginalize people with disabilities stem from ignorance of just not knowing. People with disabilities are experts at deciphering the difference. If you are a witness to cruel behaviors towards someone with a disability, deal with the situation as you would with any bullying behavior. If you are physically present, state that the behavior is inappropriate. Ask the person being bullied if they would like your help. Always give the disabled person the power to choose your help. Online, do not encourage negative/bullying posts with “Likes.” You can message the individual with your thoughts about why you think a post is inappropriate. People who are able-bodied can be allies to the disability community by providing inclusive environments. Examples are: The following communication strategies are recommended to promote inclusion: People without disabilities can serve as “Allies” to promote inclusion, and combat the marginalization. Ally examples include: **Dr. JG:** Individuals with hidden disabilities have an added burden of “Do I or Don’t I?” Do they disclose to others about their disability? Why bring it up and run the risk of being treated differently? In the workplace, why jeopardize not being hired due to long-standing societal attitudes/beliefs towards disability? In some environments the individual may pass – presumed by others as a person without a disability. This may seem to be a good thing. Yet, for example – a person with Bi-polar Disorder may become overworked, triggering a manic episode and exhibiting behavior that is inappropriate in the workplace. Without their manager’s awareness of the disability, termination of employment may be immediate. However, if aware, the manager can provide accommodations to minimize triggers. AND, may be cognizant of behaviors that indicate a manic episode is starting to develop, discussing concerns and providing accommodations before adverse actions (suspension/termination) are necessary. **Dr. JG:** People with readily identifiable disabilities are continuously forced to deal with societal attitudes placed upon them. Stares, along with the overt and covert questioning of their intelligence often happen daily. **Jennifer Gibson, Ph.D.** is a Clinical Psychologist, adjunct professor, researcher, writer, international speaker, and workshop presenter.

Example: “A man with quadriplegia” instead of “A disabled man” or “He’s a Quad.” - Speak directly to the person rather than through a companion or sign language interpreter. - Do not assume a person with a physical disability is either hard of hearing or has a cognitive disability. Speaking louder is not typically necessary or more helpful. - When meeting a person with a visual disability, always identify yourself and others who may be with you. When conversing in a group, remember to identify the person to whom you are speaking. -  Treat adults as adults. Address people who have disabilities by their first names only when extending the same familiarity to all others. -  Listen attentively when you are speaking with a person who has difficulty speaking. Be patient and wait for the person to finish, rather than correcting or speaking for the person. If necessary, ask short questions that require short answers, a nod or shake of the head. Never pretend to understand if you are having difficulty doing so. Instead, repeat what you have understood and allow the person to respond. Their response may clue you in and guide your understanding. - Do not encourage stereotypical jokes by laughing - Point out rude behaviors - Address accessibility and provide accommodations.

What would you tell a prospective employer about the value of hiring individuals with disabilities? ###### Dr. GS: Many individuals with disabilities find themselves socially isolated and that can foster feelings of anger and loneliness. What helpful tips can you offer to those who might feel all alone with their disability? ###### Dr. GS: I’ve had the privilege of befriending and also working with many people with disabilities. I’ve learned so much about different ways of seeing the world. I think it’s helped me grow enormously as a person. Yet it always surprises me when I see others recoil from someone with a disability. Why do you think that happens? What do you think we can all gain from working with or befriending a person with a disability? ###### Dr. GS: Wow, that’s a sobering idea. I think most of us never want to think about the potential of becoming disabled. Thank you for sharing the unique challenges of living with a disability. You also showed so beautifully how we all share a human vulnerability. Opening our homes and hearts to those with disabilities can enrich our lives immeasurably. Part III of my interview with Dr. Jennifer Gibson, clinical psychologist, and disability expert. Plus a bonus synopsis of her upcoming memoir: **Finding Me.** I learned so much from Dr. Gibson about how to support and respect those with disabilities. In Part I of our interview she shared her groundbreaking model of disability development, and how it can help. In Part II we learned new and exciting ways to cope with anger and disability. In Part III she shares how the disabled can cope better with anger and loneliness. She also offers some sober advice to us able-bodied folks to keep us from feeling too cocky about our abilities. **Dr. JG:** Research shows that employees with disabilities take fewer sick days than their peers and are more likely to arrive at work on time. This suggests that they value their jobs more than most. **Dr. JG:** Find ways to validate your sense of belonging. Put yourself in environments that increase the likelihood of being accepted and valued. Stay away from negative people and situations. Find community activities that incorporate your hobbies and interests. Examples: **Dr. JG:** I think recoiling from the unfamiliar is often an unconscious reaction. It stems from fight or flight; an instinctual defense mechanism we have for survival. Inclusive environments provide experiential knowledge that promotes understanding. People then learn that we share many commonalities. Those who appear different from us are actually quite similar. Individuals with disabilities may conjure up feelings of one’s own vulnerability. Unlike when interacting with folks who are different due to ethnicity, sexual orientation, or gender, images of people with disabilities may trigger fear of one’s own mortality. One might worry that the person sitting in a wheelchair or who appears to be struggling to walk/talk – could be (or become) “me.” People show similar reactions to the aging population. I believe the most impactful shift in societal perspectives towards people with disabilities has stemmed from the implementation of Special Education in the public school system. The generation that attended grade school in the ‘’70s-’80s is the first to grow up knowing peers with disabilities. Since this time, more people with disabilities attend college, serve in the workplace and live full, productive lives. The Americans with Disabilities Act – giving civil rights to persons with disabilities – was signed into law in 1990. People with disabilities are now considered a part of society. Those with disabilities can no longer be legally shunned and hidden away in institutions, as was commonplace in our country through the 1970s. Today, most people either know of a person living with or, they themselves have a disability. One in five people has a disability. Twenty percent of our population. Disability is a part of life. If one lives long enough and escapes injury and disease, more than likely… they will age into disability. I refer to people without disabilities as “TABs” – “Temporarily Able-Bodied.” This term can bring to consciousness the unconscious thoughts and feelings people have regarding disability. Below is the synopsis for Dr. Gibson’s memoir, “Finding Me” – a book in progress. *I am not what happened to me. I am what I choose to become.* “She’ll be a vegetable.” Not exactly what my seventeen-year-old mother expected to hear after seeing me off safely tucked in the attending nurse’s arms. The same nurse who minutes later snuck away from her post for an impromptu break – away for no more than five minutes, returning to find me blue after choking. Those few minutes without air caused permeant brain damage and led to my eventual diagnosis of Cerebral Palsy. Fast forward to a Ph.D. and one son later, my journey through life winds through unexpected places, defying even my own expectations as I discover my optimistic spirit and relentless strength. I am determined to challenge society’s view of my place in this world. Finding Me takes me from a little girl living with a disability in a zip code one neighborhood removed from Compton, CA in the ‘60s and ‘70s as I sort through my family’s Appalachian breed of dysfunction. The context of institutionalization and education for individuals with disabilities sets my opportunities and hardships as I explore societal shifts in attitudes of marginalized groups from the ‘60s to the ‘90s – including women, people of color, and LGBTQIA. Fighting for my first few breaths set the tone for my life-long struggle towards equality. While battling pre-determined views about who I am due to my disability and lower socio-economic roots, I grow into womanhood determined to break familial patterns of addiction, poverty, and domestic violence. Finding Me is a story of resilience in our evolving world. **Jennifer Gibson, Ph.D.** is a Clinical Psychologist, adjunct professor, researcher, writer, international speaker, and workshop presenter. For the past 30 years, she has worked as a therapist, administrator, educator, research associate and writer. She was staff psychologist of the Counseling Center and assistant director of Disability Services Center with the University of California, Irvine. Later, she became director of Students with Disabilities Services at the University of California, Davis. She is the author of more than fifteen professional articles and book chapters highlighting the Gibson Disability Identity Development Model.

Perhaps she made a bundle picking the right stock at the right time. Or you envy that talented relative who excels at almost everything. You might find yourself wishing you were luckier, more talented, richer, healthier, etc. Getting mired in envy can really bring you down. If you want to feel better, try cultivating an attitude of gratitude. Most of us are enduring something painful. As the writer Henry David Thoreau wrote, we all “lead lives of quiet desperation.” It’s not hard to summon a list of complaints about your job, boss, spouse, health, kids, government, etc. Yet dwelling on our complaints does little to resolve problems. Dwelling on problems can really get you riled up with anger, anxiety and stress. Research psychologists, Joel Wong and Joshua Brown, of Indiana University, found that subjects who wrote letters of gratitude, reported higher levels of happiness. Also, they found that after three months of gratitude exercises, subjects showed greater activity in the medial prefrontal cortex of their brains. This part of the brain is responsible for learning and decision making. This and other research studies suggest that gratitude can have lasting, positive changes in the function and structure of your brain. Gratitude seems to shift your mind away from negative emotions such as anger and envy, and as a result, you feel happier. How can you start thinking with more gratitude. Try the following: The research shows that the benefits of gratitude grow over time. So don’t expect instant happiness the first time you try it. The more you exercise your gratitude muscle, the stronger your happiness will grow. To get inspired here’s a beautiful song called Thank you to life, by [Mercedes Sosa](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercedes_Sosa). English translation included. Enjoy!

Several years ago, while she was a student at the University of Washington in Seattle, she was approached by an attractive, well dressed, young man. He told her his car had broken down, he was new to the university, and asked “where is the nearest pay phone?” She hesitated for a moment. Something about him bothered her. She knew the nearest pay phone was at the end of a row of buildings which bordered the forest. Pointing to the location of the phone she said “it’s at the end of that row of buildings” and turned to leave. The young man appeared irritated and asked her to walk him to the phone , at which point she felt what she described as an “urgent need to get away from him”. She said “no”, then left. A few days later she saw him get on the bus she was riding. He tried to ask her for help again, but she got off at the nearest stop, blocks away from her home, again feeling unsafe in his presence. And once again, while eating in a local restaurant, the young man approached her, and she left abruptly. More than a year later she saw his face again, only this time he was on the news. The attractive, but overly insistent young man was serial killer Ted Bundy. Many of us can remember times when we felt something strongly, but couldn’t consciously explain why we feared someone, or disliked a person. We now know that the amygdala region of our brain, the part of our brain which evaluated threat, processes information twice as fast as the neocortex region of the brain, which regulates conscious thought. Often we can find conscious reasons later for our first impression. In the case of my travel partner, she realized later that it was odd that Ted Bundy claimed to be a new student, yet he wasn’t carrying any books. She found it unusual that he insisted on her help, rather than asking any of the hundreds of other students there. His irritation that she would not accompany him was inappropriate. Often we find that the first impression we have of someone is the most accurate. We can get into trouble when we ignore our intuition and only rely on rational reasoning. I highly recommend the Gavin De Becker book The Gift of Fear. It is a book full of recommendations about hiring and firing people safely, and includes ways to analyze your first impression of someone. It will help you respect your intuition and stay safe. - [HOME](/ "HOME") - [ABOUT US](/about "ABOUT US") - [SERVICES](/services "SERVICES") - [Anger Management](/anger-management "Anger Management") -
