Emotion Regulation for Counselors, a paper we wrote with Dr. Jacqueline M. Swank, tells about the importance of emotion regulation for people in the counseling field. Not for their clients, but for those who help. As we know, taking care of ourselves is our ethical responsibility. Emotion regulation is one of the ways to take care of ourselves when we feel overwhelmed with intensive emotions both in session with clients, and in between sessions, when we still have to wait before seeing our supervisors.
