Regulating Together

A hands-on workshop series where caregivers and kids learn together to build emotional regulation, resilience, and connection.

Regulating Together is a 5-week, in-person neurobehavioral program that helps children (ages 8 – 12)—along with their caregivers—build emotional regulation skills. Groups meet twice a week for 90 minutes, with children and caregivers meeting separately but at the same time.

This program is designed for children:

  • With Autism or related neurodevelopmental conditions who experience challenges with emotional regulation, rigidity, anxiety, mood, or outbursts

  • Who are verbally fluent and have approximately average cognitive abilities

  • Who have a caregiver able to attend the caregiver group, as this is a family-based intervention
