Self-Regulation

Are you familiar with the saying, ‘Ride the wave’? Easier said than done, right? Self-regulation is the ability to control one’s emotions, thoughts, and behaviors in an ever-changing environment with ever-changing demands. For kids and teens (& let’s be honest, adults too), this can be a difficult feat, but I am here to help. This is my forte! 

​

Together, we will: 

• Investigate challenging behaviors 

• Learn the role the nervous system plays in regulation 

• Explore sensations that arise with intense emotions 

• Discover how to respond during moments of dysregulation 

• Add tools to your toolbox (coping skills and calming strategies) 

• & ultimately expand your child’s window of tolerance (& yours too) 

 

When we discover the root of behaviors, we are more equipped to handle the daily challenges life throws at us.
