Emotions

A young boy sits at a desk looking at a CBT worksheet about understanding emotions on a desktop computer. The worksheet includes psychoeducation on emotions, a mood regulation diagram, and coping strategies.

CBT tools to teach emotional awareness, calming strategies, and self-regulation skills.

Some children find it challenging to recognise, express, or regulate their emotions in ways that are developmentally appropriate and socially adaptive.

This may cause significant impact on their life and affect relationships, academic performance, and their overall well-being.
