Emotional Needs and the Treatment Process of Parents and Children | Noel Koons, MS, CMHC

Noel Koons, MS, CMHC, Lead Therapist at Evoke Therapy Intensives and counselor & owner of Volition Counseling This is an introduction to Emotional Needs 101 by Noel Koons. Noel explores the 6 emotional needs including how emotional need issues contribute to struggles leading up to treatment. "What are Emotional Needs? Emotional needs are the essential, inner, subjective conditions that must be met for well-being. If we meet them well, we’ll experience lasting periods of peace, joy, and wholeness. When we meet our emotional needs both personally and interpersonally, we feel serenity, self-efficacy, contentment, and thriving. If we don’t meet them, we may become chronically frustrated, dysregulated, desperate, resentful, anxious, depressed, pessimistic, cynical, listless, numb, and nihilistic."
