- Health & Fitness
All parents want their kids to feel safe and secure in the world around them. Yet often, parents can send kids the message that their big emotions are unsafe. As an occupational therapist who is well versed in supporting kids’ emotions, Katie starts by providing some helpful definitions around the different states of regulation. Not only do we talk about dysregulation, co-regulation, and self-regulation as concepts, but we also get super practical and talk about what each of these stages of regulation can look like in everyday life. And we are not just looking at our children’s nervous systems, but examining our own pathways of regulation. Join us for this rich conversation about what it could look like to take the next step toward wholeness in your family’s pursuit of emotional wellness.
Join us as we discuss:
A definition of occupational therapy and its focus on wholeness
Identifying dysregulation, co-regulation, and self-regulation
Some tangible examples of what a dysregulated child looks like
How a parent’s state of regulation can impact the child’s

Beginning to recognize when a child is suppressing emotion and behaving performatively
