What emotional regulation is

Emotional regulation is the ability to notice your emotions and respond to them in ways that fit the moment. When that process is overwhelmed, feelings can seem to take over, swing quickly, or linger longer than you want.

Difficulty with emotional regulation is common across many concerns, including anxiety, depression, and trauma. A 2012 review describes emotion regulation as closely tied to mental health, and notes that difficulties regulating emotions feature in many mental health conditions.1

How therapy can help

In therapy, you and your therapist look at what sets off strong emotions, what happens in your body, and the patterns that follow. From there you build skills to steady yourself, understand what you are feeling, and choose how to respond.

Working on emotional regulation can help you feel less at the mercy of your emotions, recover more quickly after hard moments, and feel steadier in your relationships.

The approaches Lindsey draws on

Lindsey draws on DBT, mindfulness, CBT, and somatic work for this kind of work. Emotion regulation is one of the four DBT skills areas.2

Lindsey’s areas of focus include complex trauma and PTSD, anxiety, and mood and personality disorders. DBT is also offered by Lindsay Thompson Neill and Carly Frascino.
