I have used emotion wheels for about three years because they help me better understand my emotions. In addition to his work with Hope 4 Hurting Kids, Wayne is a partner in a local consulting firm, an avid reader, coaches his son's soccer team and is a proud supporter of Leicester City Football Club (and yes, for those in know, his affinity for the club does predate the 2016 championship).This is one of my favourite mental health resources. Wayne lives with his wife, three youngest kids, three dogs and an insane collection of his kids' other pets outside of Columbus, Ohio.

Wayne speaks frequently at conferences and churches on issues related to helping kids learn to deal with difficult emotions and life in modern families. These are now part of Hope 4 Hurting Kids. In addition to Hope 4 Hurting Kids, Wayne previously started I Am A Child of Divorce and Divorce Ministry 4 Kids to help kids who are dealing with the disruption of their parents' relationship. He is a happily married father of four kids with a passion for helping young people who are going through rough times. Wayne is the founder and executive director of Hope 4 Hurting Kids.


And, the best part is, you don’t even have to be a good artist to do it. Although a simple exercise, the Color Wheel of Emotion hits on most of the aspects of the The Super Simple Feelings Management Technique – particularly the “Talk About It!” component. It also provides a golden opportunity to talk about those emotions with them.

The Color Wheel of Emotions provides kids and teens an artistic outlet for exploring their emotions.
