ACT for Posttraumatic Anger-Related Problems in Living
ACT for Posttraumatic Anger-Related Problems in LivingMany veterans who have survive trauma experience anger-related problems in living. This page is an open forum concerning ACT perspectives on the treatment of posttraumatic anger-related problems in living within the VA system. Some suggested topics include ACT conceptualizations of anger problems within the context of PTSD, specific protocols and interventions, and potential barriers to incorporating ACT-based anger treatment within the VA system.

H.E.A.T. (Honorably Experiencing Anger and Threat) ProtocolOver the next few months I will be posting session outlines and other materials that Sharon Kelly (my co-leader) and I have been using in our HEAT (Honorably Experiencing Anger and Threat) group here in the PRRTP at the Baltimore VAMC. Please note that our protocol is still being developed and that we have not yet collected any outcome data. If anyone is interested in putting the protocol to the test or has any ideas about how it could be improved, please email me at andrew.santanello@va.gov.
