Get the Emergency Kit for $17 →Your client messages you: "I can't handle this. Everything is too much. I need help NOW."
It's 9pm. Or Saturday afternoon. Or during your family dinner. They're overwhelmed, flooding with emotion, seconds away from doing something they'll regret.
So you do your best. You listen. You empathize. You schedule an extra session. But you don't have that toolbox of emergency techniques—the kind clients can use in the moment when emotions hit 8/10 or higher.
And your clients continue struggling because:
Crisis moments require crisis skills. Your clients don't need a 45-minute coaching session—they need 5 specific techniques they can access in seconds. Skills that calm the nervous system, interrupt spiraling thoughts, and create enough space to think clearly.
The complete teaching system for 5 fast-acting crisis skills—each one takes 5 minutes to teach, works in 2-5 minutes when used, and gives your clients immediate relief when stress reaches overwhelming intensity.
This isn't long-term emotional work. It's emergency intervention.
These skills come from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), developed by Dr. Marsha Linehan—specifically designed for moments when emotions reach crisis intensity. We've adapted them for coaching contexts, focusing on everyday stress overwhelm appropriate for your coaching scope.
The emergency pause that prevents impulsive actions (30 seconds)
Physical intervention that calms the nervous system fast (2-5 minutes)
7 strategies for riding out emotional waves (5-10 minutes each)
Comfort techniques using all 5 senses (5-10 minutes)
Reality orientation when emotions feel overwhelming (2-3 minutes)
They're the fastest-acting techniques from the crisis toolkit. Each one interrupts different aspects of emotional overwhelm—physical arousal, spiraling thoughts, sense of helplessness, disconnection from reality.
Together, they form a complete emergency response system. Clients choose which skill fits their specific crisis moment.

Finding crisis techniques, vetting them for coaching appropriateness, creating teaching materials, designing the reference card—it would take you weeks. Your time is worth more than that.
The laminated quick-reference card alone would cost $5-10 if you created and printed it professionally. Clients LOVE having a physical tool in their wallet. It makes the skills feel real and accessible.
You don't need 45-minute sessions to introduce crisis skills. These protocols are designed for efficient teaching. 5 minutes per skill, practice once, client has it for life.
When clients message you overwhelmed, you'll know exactly what to guide them through. No more feeling helpless. No more generic "deep breathing" advice. Specific, effective techniques that work.
These aren't random relaxation techniques from Pinterest. They're adapted from DBT—one of the most researched approaches to crisis management worldwide. You're teaching proven methods.
When you can help clients in their worst moments—when they're flooded, overwhelmed, or spiraling—they see you as the expert they need. Crisis moments create deep trust when handled well.
"Had a client text me at 10pm completely overwhelmed before a big presentation. Walked her through TIP skills on the phone—temperature change specifically. She calmed down in 3 minutes. Nailed the presentation the next day. This kit has paid for itself 100 times over."
"The laminated reference card is BRILLIANT. I give one to every client now. Three of them have it taped inside their desk drawers. One keeps it in her car. When they're overwhelmed, they don't have to remember—they just pull out the card and follow the steps. Game-changing."
"I was nervous about crisis work—felt like it might be out of my scope as a coach. The clear boundaries guidance made me confident. I know exactly when to use these skills and when to refer to emergency services. The crisis coaching scripts are perfect for what to say in the moment."
"Worth 10x the price. I spent hours last year trying to piece together crisis techniques from different sources. Having all 5 skills in one system, with teaching protocols that take 5 minutes each—it's exactly what busy coaches need. My clients actually USE these skills because they're fast and effective."
