23 | Reflecting Feelings Helps The Child Feel Understood, Lessens Anger, And Diffuses Intensity Of Emotion

Season 1 Episode 23 Published 3 years, 3 months ago
Description
In this episode, I do a deep dive into an aspect of "why" you reflectively respond (track behavior, reflect feelings, reflect content). I discuss three outcomes that should give you a better understanding of the principle behind reflective responding, and a goal for why you're doing it in the playroom.
