What is a Feelings Chart For Adults?
Similar to the feelings chart for kids, a feelings chart for adults is a worksheet where emotions are listed and organized in columns. Compared to its counterpart for children, however, this feelings chart has no images with facial expressions paired with their corresponding emotions. Typically used by practitioners or therapists, this resource is a tool that they can give their clients to help them better identify and communicate their emotions so they may address them accordingly.
Currently, a wide variety of feelings charts are available, and practitioners can choose which ones will suit their needs based on the look and content.
If you’ve stumbled upon our version of a feelings chart for adults searching for the right one for your practice, let us give you more information on what to expect on our template.
