Trauma-Informed Emotion Coaching

Emotion Coaching® is a research-based method from the Gottman Institute that gives caregivers a way to help children learn about emotions. Research shows that when caregivers value and guide emotions using this important method, children do better in many ways. These children tend to:

• Form stronger friendships with peers
• Have higher self esteem
• Regulate their moods more easily
• Be more successful in their problem-solving skills
• Bounce back from emotional events more quickly
• Get sick less often
