Understanding Feeling Management

Managing one’s emotions requires a balance between expression and containment of feelings. When and how we communicate feelings is something that we learn from our earliest experiences and from our natural temperament. Feelings can augment our communications or become an obstacle to reaching understanding and successful interactions with another person. The way we deal with and communicate our feelings is a balancing act that requires an emotional intelligence (EI). Fortunately, Dr. Paul Standal can help you develop and shape your EI through effective counseling and coaching. His goal is to make you an expert in managing your own emotions. Managing your emotions is like managing a business. In fact he often calls this skill “emotional entrepreneurship.”
