Emotional Dysregulation
Emotional Dysregulation refers to persistent difficulty managing emotional responses in a way that aligns with your values, goals, and context. At ShiftGrit, we understand these struggles not as flaws in personality or willpower, but as patterned reactions developed in response to limiting beliefs, unprocessed emotional learning, and survival-based coping strategies.
This category explores how dysregulation presents — often as panic attacks, chronic stress, emotional flooding, or self-esteem instability — and how our identity-level therapy model works to recondition the internal loop beneath these reactions.
We focus on helping clients regain access to their cognitive mind by neutralizing the perceived threats that trigger overreactions, shutdowns, or emotional spirals.
