Help Ash Ketchum Catch 'Em All!

Turn emotional regulation into an epic Pokémon journey! In this interactive digital activity, your client will help Ash Ketchum catch Pokémon by practicing a variety of coping strategies along the way, while learning the reason behind why these coping skills are helpful. Each Pokémon is “caught” through practicing each skill, through emotional awareness, and by using strategies that build resilience.
 
Designed with neurodivergent learners in mind, this activity is fun, interactive, and low-pressure. This is perfect for students who love Pokémon and benefit from movement-based or imaginative learning! Great for students grades 2–8 and can be used for counseling sessions, SEL lessons, small groups, or individual telehealth or in person psychotherapy.
 
This resource can benefit anyone, but especially clients who are autistic, ADHDers, those with PDA profiles, anxiety, or low frustration tolerance.
 
 
Clients will learn to:
Identify and name emotions using visual and sensory cues
Practice and apply coping tools like grounding, breathing, movement, and visualization
Reflect on which strategies help them feel calm, focused, or in control
Support Ash in catching Pokémon through their emotional regulation wins
 
Whether you’re a school counselor/psychologist, therapist, or educator, Help Ash Ketchum Catch ‘Em All offers a playful, empowering way to teach emotional regulation skills one Poké Ball at a time!
