Are you a parent or caregiver feeling overwhelmed by your child’s big emotions? You’re not alone — and you’re in the right place to learn about emotion regulation for kids.
In this powerful and practical video, Dr. Adam Kayfitz, a licensed psychologist with extensive experience working with children, parents, and families, explores one of the most important yet often misunderstood aspects of childhood development: emotion regulation for kids.
Children experience the world in big, intense ways — and they don’t always have the tools to make sense of what they’re feeling. As adults, we often find ourselves unsure how to respond to tantrums, meltdowns, or emotional shutdowns. This video provides clarity, reassurance, and guidance to help you support your child in meaningful, developmentally appropriate ways.
In this video, you’ll learn:
✅ What emotion regulation actually is, and why it’s foundational for your child’s mental and emotional health
✅ How children experience emotions differently than adults — and why anger, sadness, or fear can quickly feel overwhelming to them
✅ What’s happening in the brain during emotional outbursts, and why your child isn’t “just being difficult”
✅ Practical strategies you can use right now to help your child label, express, and manage their emotions
✅ Long-term benefits of emotion coaching — including stronger self-esteem, resilience, and healthier relationships over time
Why Emotion Regulation Matters:
Research shows that children who learn to identify and manage their emotions early in life are more likely to succeed academically, socially, and emotionally. Yet many parents were never taught these skills themselves, and aren’t sure how to teach them to their kids.
That’s why this video is so valuable: Dr. Kayfitz takes complex psychological ideas and makes them accessible, offering real-world examples that reflect what’s happening in homes every day.
