Students struggling with anxiety and emotional dysregulation often lack frustration tolerance, leading to outbursts, avoidance, or withdrawal. This workshop explores how to help students build resilience by strengthening their sense of connection and emotional safety. Drawing from developmental psychology and practical, relationship-based strategies, participants will learn to foster frustration tolerance in ways that validate emotions while setting firm, supportive boundaries. In addition to classroom and counseling techniques, attendees will gain tools to collaborate effectively with parents, empowering them with strategies to reinforce frustration tolerance at home. Through discussion and real-world examples, we’ll explore how to help students move from dysregulation to confidence in handling challenges.
