Emotional Regulation

We are currently offering emotional regulation intensives during the school holidays. The intensives involve multiple sessions in a week to help build and consolidate skills. ​Our sessions are individually planned in response to goals and concerns, they may include: 

• Identifying emotions in others and ourselves and how our emotions can change throughout the day

• Identifying body clues, including our own body clues for big feelings

• Understanding triggers or events can cause different emotions, and identifying specific triggers that cause big emotions for ourselves 

• Identifying ways to minimise triggers, including the build up of small triggers (stopping the balloon before it bursts)

• Understanding the concepts of 'okay' and 'not okay' behaviours, including categorising our own behavioural responses

• Understanding the link between our own triggers, feelings and behaviours

• Identifying a range of regulation tools that can help our body feel better when we are feeling big emotions​
