Emotional Regulation Isn’t About Control—It’s About Understanding
EMOTIONAL REGULATION GROUP
A 10-week group for adults who feel too much, too fast — and want a deeper map for how to feel on purpose.
You feel without a system.
And for many high-functioning adults — especially those with ADHD — that’s not a failure of control. It’s a mismatch between how you process and what you’ve been taught to expect from yourself.
This 10-week psychoeducational and skills-based group is designed to help you understand your emotional system from the inside out — biologically, behaviorally, and strategically. It’s especially relevant if you:
Have ADHD or a multi-channel processing style (but this is not required)
Struggle with overwhelm, shutdown, or emotional reactivity that feels “too fast to track”
Swing between ambition and depletion
Find yourself stuck in spirals of disappointment, dread, or shutdown—and want to understand why
YOUR PROCESSING STYLE
You feel “too much.”
In this group, you will learn:
What emotions are for — not just psychologically, but evolutionarily
Why some people experience emotions as floods, others as static, and many as a mix of both
How neurodivergent processing styles (especially in ADHD) amplify emotional intensity, delay clarity, and create cycles of shame, dread, or withdrawal
How dysregulated emotion hijacks identity and undermines self-trust
Why dread is often misread as procrastination—and how to work with it as a signal, not a flaw
You don’t need to be less emotional. You need to become fluent.
