Parenting or caregiving can feel especially overwhelming when a child’s emotions become too big for words.

The Big Feelings Backpack for Caregivers is a practical, compassionate guidebook designed to help adults better understand and respond to children’s emotions with greater confidence, consistency, and compassion. In addition, it teaches adults how to look beneath the surface of their child's behavior and respond to what to what they may be feeling, needing, or trying to communicate.

The author skillfully balances clinical expertise with raw, slightly-humorous, examples to provide insightful and thought-provoking reframing to your caregiving experience. Written in a supportive and easy-to-follow style, this guidebook provides parents, caregivers, and helping professionals actionable tools they can begin using right away.

You will learn to master co-regulation, your own self-care, the power of accepting accountability for your own emotions and behaviors. Dedicated chapters cover a variety of common negative emotions including anger, sadness, anxiety, and physical aggression, as well as how to best support neurodivergent children and their uniqueness.
