Emotional Regulation in Action

Executive functioning

Building skills for friendships, communication, confidence, and everyday life.

A small group for adults 18+. Facilitated by Daisy Lee, OTD, under the supervision of Jess Hale, OTR/L.

Email Daisy

A cohort runs once there are enough people for one, so nothing here is on a calendar yet. Email Daisy either way and she'll tell you honestly where it stands.

Two ways to take part

On your own

Tell Daisy you're interested and she'll keep you posted as a group forms. If there aren't enough people yet, she'll talk with you about individual sessions in the meantime - the skills are the same either way.

Through an organization

Schools, programs, clinics, and nonprofits can bring the 8 weeks to a group they already have. Daisy will walk through what it would take to run it with your people.

Do you ever feel like...
  • You get overwhelmed easily
  • You overthink social situations
  • Friendships feel difficult to navigate
  • You struggle with confidence
  • Small challenges feel bigger than they should
  • You know what you want to do, but feel stuck
  • Stress impacts school, work, or relationships
  • You're tired of feeling like you're just surviving

You're not alone. Emotional regulation is a skill - and skills can be learned.

Skills you'll build

Understanding Emotions

Learn why emotions happen and how they affect daily life.

Communication

Practice expressing needs, setting boundaries, and handling conflict.

Confidence

Strengthen self-talk and trust your abilities.

Recognizing Triggers

Identify patterns that contribute to stress and overwhelm.

Managing Anxiety

Build practical strategies that work in real-world situations.

Relationships

Build healthier friendships and social connections.

What makes this program different

This isn't a lecture. Each week includes:

  • Interactive discussions
  • Real-life role plays
  • Guided activities
  • Personal reflection
  • Practical tools you can use immediately
  • Supportive feedback and coaching

Our goal is helping you apply these skills outside of group - not just learn about them.
