Emotional regulation skills are central to psychological wellbeing. When emotions escalate, the nervous system prioritises survival over reasoning, making pausing, breathing, and simplifying tasks essential first steps.
In therapy, individuals learn to recognise emotional cues early and respond with strategies that support regulation rather than avoidance or reactivity. Over time, this strengthens both emotional resilience and interpersonal functioning.
These skills are learnable, and support makes a difference.
