Is BIP therapy or anger management?
The Crisis Connection, Inc. Batterers’ Intervention Program (BIP) is facilitated by men and women who are committed to working toward the goal of ending men’s violence and abuse against their partners. They do not offer therapy or counseling, their role is closer to that of a teacher. They present information which can help men end their abusive and violent behavior. Batterers’ Intervention is much more than anger management. As stated above, we do not believe that abusive/ violent behavior is rooted in anger, but in the desire to exert power and control over another.
