Over 16 weeks last year, independent film-maker Sophie Wiesner chronicled the men involved in the group Heavy METAL – short for Men’s Education Towards Anger and Life.

The documentary focuses on three men in particular – each a father and perpetrator of violence – and their families.

Dave, Thanks again for your assistance with my life. I use your techniques in dealing with day to day issues every day.

I would strongly encourage you to do this. Look at it from behaviour change point of view if anger management does not sit comfortable.

Do it! Initially I thought I was in the wrong place, that there was nothing I could learn from this type of forum-some discussion, some issues seemed not to be relevant. But! Some other components are very worthwhile.

Encourage them to do it. They will get a lot out of this program.

Believe in yourself! It takes guts to admit you have a problem.

Pick up the Bloody phone! It was the best move I ever made!

This program will teach you to listen and understand your partner, your feelings and learn ownership and self control.

He is able to deal with a little more pressure than he could before. He does not blow a fuse or erupt as quickly as he used to.

He manages his anger. He talks to me about his feelings, which helps him to stay level headed.

I have noticed HUGE CHANGES! A different man to what he had become, I’m starting to look at him as the man I had married so long ago. The depression has lifted.

I have noticed that Brian is able to control his temper a lot more, he is a lot more patient, and a much happier person to be around. He also listens to myself and the kids a lot more.
Natalie - Mt Eliza
Highly recommend it. It is worthwhile for the entire family, not just for them.

Hi Dave, It has been many years since I did your course and saw you on ABC tonight. In those days I was seeing my kids every second weekend and was struggling with anger.

I can’t praise Dave & Jacqui enough after watching the show last night. I was astounded at the results having tried desperately to get through to my abusive partner who is now on community service for his anger issues and one step away from prison.

The UTAS Student Living Team would like to thank you both for your recent Let’s Change the Story two-day professional development. This learning experience was invaluable in leading the Student Living Support Officers to develop self-awareness and understanding of attitudes that contribute to domestic violence.
