  1. 4Key Benefits of Emotional Counselling

  2. 1. Emotional regulation • Emotional regulation has to do with our ability to control strong emotions by not acting on raw feelings in an impulsive or destructive manner. Developing the ability to sit with unpleasant feelings and to give ourselves the time and space to decide how we may alleviate or reduce negative feelings cultivates self-confidence. Emotional regulation also helps us develop the ability to consider various solutions to a particular situation or problem. Not reacting solely from an emotionally charged state results in better decision-making outcomes.

  3. 2. Empathy • When we empathize with others, we develop deeper, more intimate relationships. Empathy is the ability to recognize how and why people feel the way they do. Empathy allows us to anticipate how our actions and behaviors influence other people as well as our own. Developing empathy skills enhances our experiences, relationships, and general understanding of ourselves, other people and the world around us.

  4. 3. Social skills • This is a very broad term. In general, having strong social skills means having the ability to communicate in a clear, concise, and courteous manner. In a nutshell, good social skills are the summation of all of the components of EQ: self-awareness, emotional regulation, and empathy.

  5. 4. Self-awareness • Self-awareness can play a major role in emotional counselling. The ability to identify, evaluate and control your own emotions and to better understand and manage the emotions of others. Talking through emotional issues aloud with a counsellor provides immediate feedback on your thoughts and clarifies your strengths & weaknesses.
