Why coping strategies don’t stick when your child is activated.
When a family member is dysregulated, their nervous system is in survival mode. In that state, charts, consequences, rewards, and “use your tools” approaches often don’t work—because reasoning comes back after the stress response settles. And when your child is chronically activated, siblings and parents get activated too—so the whole system needs support.
SOVRAN uses the LAIR technique to help the whole family reduce automatic reactivity—so resilience increases for everyone.
Less effort. More stability. Real change that holds at home.
Why this feels so hard.
In the moment, your child can’t “use the tool” or control their emotions, because the nervous system is in survival mode. And when you’re exhausted, you can’t perfectly co-regulate every time either. This isn’t a willpower problem. It’s a nervous-system loop rooted in chronic stress and intense emotional experiences.
Feeling Frustrated?
Have you tried therapy, parenting programs, reward systems, calm-down corners, scripts, consistency, and consequences—and your child is still cycling though intense and difficult emotions?
Many parents feel like they’re doing everything “right,” but the moment their child is activated, the plan disappears—and everyone’s nervous system gets pulled into destructive emotional cycles.
What if the problem isn’t your effort—but that most tools don’t change the automatic reaction driving the behavior?
Reset Triggers
When a nervous system gets overloaded, it learns protective patterns—exploding, shutting down, refusing, avoiding, numbing, controlling. Those patterns can become the default response to everyday stress.
The LAIR technique is designed to help the nervous system update those automatic patterns—so your child recovers faster, and you stay steadier during hard moments.
