Neuroticism is a crucial aspect of personality and significantly impacts how we see ourselves and the world around us (Widiger & Oltmanns, 2017). Those of us scoring highly on the trait are more likely to respond poorly to environmental stress and interpret ordinary events as threatening (Mostowik et al., 2022). Unsurprisingly, it can damage our mental and physical wellbeing. Anyone predisposed to neuroticism is more susceptible to anxiety, eating disorders, asthma, and irritable bowel syndrome (Widiger & Oltmanns, 2017). Here, we explore elements of neuroticism and introduce several emotional regulation skills and stabilizing tools to help the coach or counselor support their clients.
