What is Emotional Regulation Coaching?

Emotional regulation coaching supports you in learning how to work with your emotions and nervous system when life feels overwhelming, overstimulating, or high pressure. Many women carry constant mental load, responsibility, and expectations that keep the body in a stressed state. When the nervous system is under strain, emotions feel bigger, reactions happen faster, and it becomes harder to think clearly or trust yourself, even when you are capable.

Emotional regulation coaching focuses on helping your body feel safer and more settled so emotions become more manageable. One of the primary tools used in this work is EFT tapping, a mind body technique that helps calm the stress response driving emotional triggers, irritability, shutdown, and overwhelm. This can be especially supportive for overstimulated moms, women navigating pressure at work, or those moving through transitions where self doubt or imposter syndrome show up.

In sessions, we work with what your body is experiencing in real time. By using EFT tapping and other nervous system based tools while tuning into emotions, stress, or beliefs, your nervous system begins to settle. As emotional intensity lowers, triggers soften, pressure feels more manageable, and your capacity increases.

Over time, this creates noticeable change. You feel steadier in your body, respond to stress instead of reacting, and move through daily life with more clarity, confidence, and emotional flexibility.

EFT Tapping can help you to:

  • Calm your nervous system when you feel overwhelmed, overstimulated, or mentally overloaded

  • Reduce emotional reactions to everyday triggers like noise, mess, deadlines, or interruptions

  • Release work related stress and the constant pressure to perform, keep up, or do more

  • Move through self doubt and imposter syndrome during career changes, motherhood shifts, or personal pivots

  • Come out of shutdown, freeze, or numb states when everything feels like too much

  • Reduce burnout and chronic exhaustion by helping your body release stored stress

  • Stabilize your energy so you are not crashing as hard throughout the day

  • Feel steadier in your emotions instead of swinging between calm and overwhelm

  • Trust yourself more and feel more confident in how you respond to stress and challenges

    The goal of emotional regulation coaching is to help your nervous system feel supported so daily life feels more manageable, grounded, and steady.

How to Get Started Working Together

Step 1: Schedule a Complimentary Intro Call

We start with a free call to see if this work feels like a good fit. You can share what you are experiencing and ask questions. There is no pressure or commitment.

Step 2: Schedule New Client Intake Session

If we move forward, we begin with an intake session where we look at the full picture of what is affecting your nervous system and capacity. We map your unique needs and identify what may be pushing your nervous system into overwhelm or shutdown.

Step 3: Ongoing 1:1 Sessions

From there, we work one piece at a time. Similiar to building muscles at the gym, our nervous system learns safety is the baseline over time.

In sessions, we use EFT tapping to help regulate emotions so you leave feeling more settled and steady in your body. We also look at what needs to shift outside of sessions, especially around nourishment and daily support, so your nervous system can stay more regulated over time.

Client Wins & Shifts

  • "Before working with Sarah, I was in the darkest place I had ever been. I felt hopeless, broken, and unsure of where to turn. I was drained before my day even started. My body felt off balance—I couldn't sleep well, my digestion was all over the place, and my stress levels were sky-high. Now, I feel more grounded and resilient than I've ever been before. Sarah helped me get on an even playing field so I could make progress. My self-worth has improved—I trust myself more, and I know I can handle whatever comes up."

    — Kelsey

  • I really noticed a shift during and after the first session. And funny enough, I completed way more tasks on my list the following week than I usually do without feeling overwhelmed by it. I also thought it was wild that we went into so many other topics on our call that I didn't expect and that I didn't realize was linked to this problem in my life. I came out of it realizing a lot when it came to many relationships in my life as well as my marriage. This single session impacted so many areas of my life in a big way.

    — Kirsten

  • "The biggest shift for me has been awareness — and actually knowing what to do with that awareness. In the past I could tell something was off, but I didn’t know how to handle it. Now I can meet myself in the moment instead of spiraling into the whole story. Knowing I don’t have to have every answer right now has been freeing. I’m learning to choose what’s best for me in each moment, and that has changed everything"

    —Diane

  • "I took major aligned action today, and I finally released an old perfectionist pattern I’ve carried for years. This nervous system work has changed how I relate to myself. I used to think my perfectionism was a personality trait, but now I see it was just my ego trying to keep me safe. I’m learning to take steps toward my goals without needing everything to be polished or ‘professional enough.’ I’m choosing grounded action instead of performance, and it feels like real growth."

    — Julianna

  • "This process truly works. I used what I learned in the session earlier this week when I felt super anxious for no known reason (just woke up like that), and was able to self-regulate. Sarah is a truly gifted coach!"

    —Emily
