Emotional Regulation for Improved Behavior in Children and Youth

  • The MTG Space 4039 Legacy Parkway Lansing, MI, 48911 United States (map)

Course Description:

Why are so many of us dysregulated and what can we do about it? The ability to self-regulate is at the foundation of intervention and therapy. In this three-part series you will gain an understanding of the development and practice of self-regulation. While self-regulation is what we strive for, it begins with state regulation. State regulation begins with the nervous system and finding healthy ways to have a flexible nervous system that can meet the demands or challenges of life in the moment. As you work with clients, they will naturally become dysregulated at times as they become triggered with past experiences or need to work with current challenges. We will learn what is occurring in the nervous system and the body during these times and how you can work with clients prior to becoming dysregulated, during a dysregulated state.
