This series is designed for those who have on-going interaction with the victim (e.g. coworker, family member, neighbor, etc.), or whose aggressive behavior has negatively affected other areas of their life. The six weekly sessions allow for in-depth coverage of behavioral concepts related to violent or aggressive behavior. There is also opportunity to receive feedback from co-participants and the facilitator concerning the application of tactics and strategies learned in previous sessions.
The goal of the series, which begins by defining anger, is to reduce both the emotional feelings and physiological arousal that anger causes. One cannot eliminate or completely avoid people and situations that cause anger. However, it is possible to learn to control how one reacts.
Through introspective discussions, participants are expected to examine and understand the positive and negative role that anger has played in their lives. These discussions focus on how and when anger is triggered and the relationship of power and control to feelings of anger. Participants learn about problem solving, communication skills, use of humor and changing one’s environment as means to intervene in the progression of anger to violence.
In the last session, concepts and techniques are reviewed. Participants are asked to consider long term implications of what they learned and helped to assess if counseling would be a follow-up option to the Anger Management Series.

This program is designed for the offender convicted of a minor or first offense who has not shown signs of aggressive or assaultive behavior in the past. It is an all-day session that offers a non-judgmental and non-threatening opportunity for participants to examine and question the self-defeating attitudes and behaviors that lead to their arrest. It is not a forum to reargue the incident. The content is designed to provide insight and encourage participants to make decisions and changes to avoid a repeat of the arrest. The format consists of facilitator lead group discussions with appropriate interaction and feedback. Some of the topics discussed include values vs. actual behavior, aggression vs. assertion, emotional control, stress, setting goals, acting vs. reacting, etc.

The program offered is designed to intervene in the development of an abusive relationship, providing an insightful and meaningful intervention to break the cycle of abusive behavior. The format occurs in thought provoking, problem solving sessions that take into account aspects inherent in long term, personal relationships.
Before the first sessions, participants must attend an orientation meeting, where a history is obtained, expectations are discussed, an agreement concerning participant responsibility is signed and behavioral guidelines are clarified. Verbal and written involvement by all participants is required, along with reading and maintaining handouts and exercises used for discussion. Participants are given opportunities to problem solve with non-violent, assertive behaviors, as well as to develop anger management plans.
The program is available in 26, 36, 45, and 52 sessions. The content of the sessions and administrative procedures are modeled on Michigan’s “Proposed batter Intervention Standards” (June/98), and have been approved by the Oakland County Coordinating Council Against Domestic Violence (OCCCADV).
With respect to the domestic violence perpetrator, E. I. P. has adapted traditional cognitive behavioral and psychotherapeutic concepts in a group setting to meet the needs and specific characteristics of these offenders. From the time the participant is referred until the case closure, status reports are sent to the referring person.
At closing, a brief description of each participant’s progress and quality of involvement in the sessions is provided. Individuals appearing to need further resources or individuals exhibiting a substantial risk for further violence are identified.

This is a multiple session (20 hour) program for more repeat offenders. An intensive, insight oriented series for probationers who are resistant or otherwise not ready to participate in traditional outpatient counseling settings. The sessions address issues relating to interpersonal relationships and lifestyle choices, as well as the role of alcohol and other drug use. The ten sessions will allow areas of special concern to be revisited as the series progresses. Our goal is to focus intensely on self-defeating behaviors and work to alter these behaviors. Guided interaction among participants will afford opportunities to recognize and build upon progress and positive changes that will occur as the group meets. The series will serve much as a support group, and will providean avenue to further counseling when needed.

An intensive, insight oriented series for probationers who are resistant or otherwise not ready to participate in traditional outpatient counseling settings. Appropriate referrals would include probation violators, drug court defendants, or those who may have already been through a basic education program (substance abuse or otherwise), but need further intervention because inappropriate choices and poor decision making skills continue to cause problems. The Next Step may also be viewed as an extension of other E. I. P. programs when offenders need a longer term, more intensive intervention to recognize a need for change and to learn how to go about making that change.
The sessions address issues relating to interpersonal relationships and lifestyle choices, as well as the role of alcohol and other drug use. The ten sessions will allow areas of special concern to be revisited as the series progresses. Our goal is to focus intensely on self-defeating behaviors and work to alter these behaviors by providing options in confrontive, interactive groups. Guided interaction among participants will afford opportunities to recognize and build upon progress and positive changes that will occur as the group meets. The series will serve much as a support group, and will provide an avenue to further counseling when needed.
