​​​

Emotional regulation is the ability to manage and respond to emotional experiences in a healthy and adaptive way. For children, learning to regulate emotions can be a difficult and ongoing process. When a child struggles with emotional regulation, it can affect their social interactions, academic performance, and overall well-being. These challenges may present as meltdowns, aggression, withdrawal, anxiety, or difficulty controlling impulses.

Common Signs of Emotional Regulation Challenges in Children:


Children facing emotional regulation difficulties may exhibit:

  • Frequent tantrums or outbursts

  • Low frustration tolerance

  • Difficulty with transitions

  • Anxiety or fearfulness

  • Impulsivity

  • Social communication challenges

  • Avoidance 

 

If you’ve noticed your child struggling with emotional regulation, an Occupational Therapist can provide a personalized assessment and develop a plan to help them thrive. By supporting your child in learning to manage their emotions, you are giving them the tools to navigate life’s challenges with confidence and resilience.
