Emotions: what are they and what do they mean??
It can be tricky to work out exactly what emotions are and how they affect each of us differently.
Sometimes parents and professionals talk about children having “emotional regluation” or “self regulation” problems. Issues with emotional regulation can include not knowing what the child is communicating to us, what they are reacting too or how best to manage and respond to them. It is our job as Allied Health Professionals and Educators to help unpack, understand and listen to families in relation to their child’s emotions and behaviour.

It provides strategies to teach students to become more aware of, and independent in controlling their emotions and impulses, managing their sensory needs, and improving their ability to problem solve conflicts.
