Summary
Parents play a critical role in helping children learn to manage their emotions. In this chapter, we describe a promising new emotion coaching (EC) parenting intervention for survivors of intimate partner violence (IPV) targeting parent and child emotion regulation skills and parent-child relationships. We provide an overview of the EC intervention developed for this at-risk population, outline its key elements and use preliminary pilot data to illustrate how such a behavioural intervention can yield improvements in behavioural and physiological indices of emotion regulation (i.e., respiratory sinus arrhythmia [RSA]) and parent-child relationships and reductions in mental health difficulties in IPV-exposed mothers and their children. We also provide a clinical case example to illustrate the EC treatment principles and process, identify several core competencies that enhance delivery and outcomes of the EC intervention and consider potential directions for future work on EC.
