My clients love this! It is a great conversation starter for recognizing how we feel anger, exploring what we can do differently during anger inducing moments, and a fun way to build rapport. I want to purchase the other versions of this item as well!

The questions on the ball definitely help spark conversation. Plus, they get a chance to throw a ball around which makes it less stressful for them. My client actually thought it was fun!
