At One Health South Jersey, we recognize that emotional regulation, the ability to recognize, understand, and constructively manage emotions is a cornerstone of mental health, healthy relationships, and overall well-being. Our emotional regulation consulting services equip individuals, families, schools, and organizations with science-backed strategies to navigate life’s challenges with greater resilience and adaptability.
The Growing Need for Emotional Regulation Support
Modern life presents unprecedented emotional challenges:
- Youth Mental Health Crisis: 45% of New Jersey high school students report persistent emotional distress, with many lacking coping tools (NJ Department of Health, 2023)
- Workplace Stress: 60% of employees cite emotional dysregulation as negatively impacting their work performance (American Psychological Association, 2023)
- Chronic Health Connection: Poor emotional regulation correlates with 30% higher risk of cardiovascular disease and immune dysfunction (NIH, 2023)
- Interpersonal Strain: 65% of family conflicts escalate due to emotional regulation difficulties (American Family Therapy Academy, 2023)
Our consulting services address these challenges through neuroscience-informed approaches that build lifelong regulation skills.
