How are you arriving?

See what is here. Name it. Understand what it may be signalling. Then choose your response.

All emotions are acceptable. Not all behaviours are.

Choose how you are using it

Switch modes at any time. Your answers stay in place.

What else is present?

Care, boundaries and safety

This is a reflection and supportive-listening tool, not diagnosis or therapy. Respect privacy, but never promise secrecy where there is a serious risk of harm. In immediate danger call 999 or go to A&E. For urgent mental-health help call NHS 111. Samaritans are available on 116 123.

The emotion wheel is an original L2M Coaching interaction informed by Robert Plutchik's eight-emotion model. It is presented as a reflective coaching aid rather than a diagnostic assessment.

See before solving.

When someone shares an emotion, acknowledge it, ask permission, listen, reflect and validate before moving to advice or action.
