The Emotional Literacy Toolkit for ADHD: Strategies for Better Emotional Regulation and Peer Relationships in Children and Teens

Challenges with emotional regulation and rejection sensitivity can disproportionately affect children and teens with ADHD, impacting on their development at school and their relationship with their peers.

Developed for children and young people who experience difficulties with emotional regulation, SEND specialist Sonia Ali, shares a mentoring Intervention programme to support a child or young person with this issue at school or at home. Covering concepts like the fight, flight or freeze response and the Window of Tolerance, managing anger outbursts and overwhelm or navigating conflict with peers, this easily digestible book will help educators and carers support children and teens to develop core emotional literacy skills in an enjoyable way!

This accessible, step-by-step guide is packed with activities, including role-play situations, discussion-based statements, quizzes and more. The programme can be followed sequentially or dipped into to support a child with a particular issue when relevant.
