Summary

In session 8, the patient is queried about issues of anger management, and is taught emotion regulation skills. This includes teaching the anger toolbox, a set of tools to use when angry. In this session, the patient is also taught several emotion regulation techniques: diaphragmatic breathing for relaxation, emotion distancing, and the use of adaptive emotional states. Two forms of behavioral activation are taught: encouraging exercise and doing wall push-ups and prescribing pleasurable activities. (Of note, throughout the treatment we have the patient do behavioral activation. We consider such actions as stretching and interoceptive exposure to be a form of behavioral activation in that they cause the patient to enter a new zone of experience and involve activity.)
