We’ve all been cut off in traffic or caught behind a slow driver at the wrong time. Why do we feel “rage” when this happens? How can we help ourselves and our clients manage driving rage or aggression? As more people take the to the roadways post-pandemic, streets become more crowded, and societal stressors mount, we are seeing more instances of road rage and driver aggression hit the news, many of these interactions fatal or catastrophic. Finally, a CE training to highlight the phenomenon!

Aggressive driving and road rage are concerning behaviors that have significant societal implications. Intended for professionals, this training will examine the causes, triggering events, consequences, and common forms of aggressive driving behaviors and road rage. A section of this training will also examine screening and intervention options appropriate for persons who engage in these behaviors. Other topics discussed in this training will include alexithymia, anger management problems, attachment patterns, conflict resolution problems, emotional intelligence, empathy, executive dysfunction, fatigue, hostility, impatience, impulse control issues, irritability, lower emotionality, mentalization, metacognition, mindful attention, paranoia, personality disorders, perspective taking, psychological distress, rumination, self-efficacy, self-regulation deficits, sensation-seeking, sleep disturbances, and substance misuse to name a few. Empirically-based research findings and case study examples will be highlighted throughout this training.
