From improving relationships to enhancing work performance and nurturing better overall health, we'll delve into how mastering emotional regulation can reshape our lives. It starts with the ABCs!
About Laura (in her words)
I am inspired by the idea of creating more peace and prosperity in our world. When I was a student at Northeastern University majoring in psychology, I learned that emotional regulation is the key to peace and prosperity because the ability to remain calm, connected, and focused on conflict resolution improves your relationships, your performance at work, and even leads to better overall health. Initially I brought my enthusiasm for teaching emotional regulation skills to my role as a human resources manager, and then when I became a parent, I became passionate about teaching them to my children. But my role as a parent was more triggering than my role as a human resources manager so managing my own emotions and behavior became more challenging. Also, I came to understand that the traditional parenting tools we’re taught to use such as consequences, rewards, and ignoring unwanted behaviors put short-term control ahead of long-term learning. And so, I began to educate myself about more effective ways to build my own emotional regulation and support the development of emotional regulation in my children. I earned a certification as a Child Behavior Specialist and I completed Parent Coach training, Emotion Coach training, and Anxiety Coach training in addition to my degree in psychology from Northeastern University. And working for twenty years as a home daycare owner and nanny… I’ve learned a thing or two along the way. Now I share what I know now and wish I knew then because I continue to feel inspired by the idea of teaching emotional regulation skills to create more peace and prosperity in our world. My specialty includes working with parents of children from birth through the teenage years, because it’s never too early or too late to support the development of emotional regulation. Emotional regulation can be more challenging for children with a diagnosis of ADHD or Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), with sensory sensitivities, or who are deeply feeling kids.
