Responding to Emotional Dysregulation in Borderline Personality Disorder-FREE Webinar
Emotional dysregulation—the inability to manage intense emotions—is at the heart of BPD. For carers, this can mean navigating rapidly changing moods, impulsive decisions, panic attacks, or emotional breakdowns with little warning.
In this webinar, we take a trauma-informed look at what’s happening beneath the surface when someone is “out of control.” You’ll learn how the brain and body react under emotional stress, and how to respond in ways that are soothing rather than inflaming. We’ll cover validation strategies, co-regulation techniques, and how to create a crisis plan that works.
Whether you’re trying to help someone through a meltdown, or just trying to get through the day without triggering another, this session will help you feel more equipped and less alone.
