Emotional Intensity & Regulation
Strong emotions can feel overwhelming, especially when reactions seem to happen faster than you can make sense of them. You may notice patterns of heightened reactivity, difficulty settling after conflict, or feeling emotionally flooded in relationships that matter to you.
This work focuses on building greater awareness of emotional responses and developing steadier ways to navigate intense feelings without shutting down or escalating. The goal is not to eliminate emotion, but to increase flexibility, clarity, and choice, so emotions no longer feel like they are running the relationship or the moment.
