Emotional Dysregulation Counseling in North Dakota
When emotions feel overwhelming, we’ll help you regain control and create balance.

If you often feel like your emotions are too intense, unpredictable, or difficult to manage, you may be experiencing emotional dysregulation. This is not a weakness—it’s a common struggle that can affect relationships, work, and overall wellbeing. At River Haven Counseling, we help people across North Dakota learn proven strategies to manage big emotions, reduce reactivity, and build healthier ways of coping so they can enjoy calmer, more connected lives.

Our licensed therapists provide in-person counseling at our Fargo office as well as secure telehealth sessions to clients throughout North Dakota, including Bismarck, Grand Forks, Minot, Williston, and rural communities.

What Emotional Dysregulation Feels Like

  • Feeling emotions very strongly and having a hard time calming down
  • Reacting impulsively or saying things you later regret
  • Struggling with mood swings or irritability
  • Having conflict in relationships due to emotional outbursts
  • Turning to unhealthy coping mechanisms to manage feelings

These experiences are common, but they don’t have to define you. With the right tools, you can respond differently.

How We Help You Find Calm and Confidence
At River Haven Counseling, our therapists use evidence-based approaches designed to help you regulate emotions and thrive:

  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Learn skills for distress tolerance, mindfulness, and emotion regulation
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Replace negative thought patterns with healthier, more balanced thinking
  • Mindfulness-Based Counseling: Stay present without being overwhelmed by emotions
  • Trauma-Informed Therapy: Address underlying experiences that may intensify emotional responses

The Benefits of Counseling for Emotional Dysregulation

  • Gain practical tools to manage strong feelings without losing control
  • Improve relationships through healthier communication
  • Build confidence in handling stress and uncertainty
  • Experience more calm, balance, and stability day-to-day
