Emotional Regulation Worksheet

Notice → Name → Understand → Choose

TherapistAssist logo

Regulation isn't suppression. It's noticing the emotion early, naming it accurately, and choosing a response that fits — instead of one the emotion picks for you.

1. Notice
What happened (just the facts)
Where I feel it in my body
2. Name
Surface emotion (the loud one)
Underneath that — the softer one
Intensity 0–10

3. Understand
What is this emotion trying to tell me?
