Name It
Understanding and naming your emotions with DBT
You can't work with a feeling you can't name — and nobody handed you the vocabulary. This program teaches emotion literacy the DBT way: the model of an emotion, the body's signatures, a map that grows from twelve families into your own working vocabulary. Forty-five seconds of labeling log a few times a day, and your own entries do the convincing.
Med coach MayaProgrammet på et øjeblik
- Hvem det er til
- For anyone who goes blank at "what are you feeling?" — whose honest answers are "fine," "stressed," "bad," or nothing at all. Numbness and "I don't know" are starting points here, not problems.
- Hvad det er
- A structured 6-week DBT program for emotion literacy, built from the protocol clinicians use.
- Format
- 10–15 min/day — coach videos, a labeling log, and a weekly review that adapts your plan.
- Pris
- First week free — including your baseline vocabulary report. Then $99, one-time — not a subscription.
Going blank has a shape, too
- "What are you feeling?" produces a blank — or "fine," "stressed," "bad."
- Feelings arrive as physical noise before they arrive as words.
- Numbness, or a genuine "I don't know," more often than a name.
- Big reactions that make more sense afterward than during.
- A sense that other people have words for this that you were never given.
Your labeling log drives the program
Not a course you watch — a loop you run. Name It reads how many distinct emotion words you're using and how specific they are, and unlocks the next tier of the map when your own entries have earned it.
Measure
A forty-five-second labeling log, prompted twice a day — and triggerable any moment a feeling shows up.

Short sessions with Maya teach the method — the science of naming, the model of an emotion, body signatures, the families.

The weekly review scores your granularity and tiers up the map when your vocabulary is ready for it.
weekly review↻ the loop runs weekly — six times
You start with twelve emotion families. As your log shows more distinct words used more specifically, the map unlocks about thirty-six sibling and border words, then fine-grained ones. Week six teaches the fan regardless — the tiers only ever arrive early, never late, and the share of entries you name is charted, never used against you.
Six weeks, one method
Fourteen sessions and five weekly reviews. The first week is free — including your baseline vocabulary report.

Maya
DBT: emotion regulation core · guider 4 programmer
The steady emotion-regulation coach — warm, unhurried, and precise about what a feeling is actually doing before asking you to change anything. Maya treats big emotions as information, not malfunctions.
“Hi, I'm Maya. Over the next six weeks we're not going to test you on feelings words — we're going to build you a vocabulary that actually fits what's happening.”
Affect labeling, faithfully built
Name It is built on affect-labeling research — putting a name to an emotion measurably lowers amygdala response — and on emotional-granularity research, which finds that finer-grained emotion vocabularies predict better regulation. The teaching spine is Linehan's model of an emotion from the DBT emotion-regulation module.

A light screen, never a gate
Nothing here locks. Numbness alongside active trauma symptoms shows a routing note toward Steady Ground and emphasizes the body-first path — the program stays open either way. Neurodivergence is named as different wiring rather than a deficit, and adjusts pacing only.
This program is not medical advice or crisis care; crisis resources stay one tap away throughout.

Hvorfor vi byggede det anderledes
- A finite curriculum, not an open tool. How We Feel is free, well-funded and genuinely good at what it does — a check-in tool you keep using. Name It is a six-week course with a beginning and an end, built to leave you with a vocabulary rather than a habit of logging.
- The map expands when your data says you're ready. Twelve families become roughly thirty-six sibling and border words, then fine-grained ones — unlocked by your own measured granularity rather than handed over all at once.
- "I don't know" is an answer here. There's a whole session on it, and the share of entries you name is charted honestly rather than scored against you — which matters if numbness is where you're starting.

Før du starter
What if I genuinely don't know what I'm feeling?
That's the starting point, not a failure — there's a whole session on it. "I don't know" is a valid log entry here, it's charted honestly, and it's never counted against you.
Is this just a feelings wheel?
A wheel is a static chart. Name It runs a labeling log against your own entries, scores how specific your vocabulary is getting, and expands the map only as you're ready for it — the map grows with you rather than sitting on a wall.
I feel emotions physically before I can name them. Is that a problem?
No — it's how emotions work, and week two is built on it. Body signatures come first in the teaching order precisely because the body usually knows the name before the words arrive.
How much time does it take?
Forty-five seconds, twice a day, for the labeling log — plus ten minutes most days for the session. You can also trigger the log any moment a feeling shows up.
Hvor meget koster det, og er det et abonnement?
Den første uge er gratis, uden krav om kort. Det fulde program koster $99, betalt én gang — der er ikke noget abonnement, og intet at opsige. Når du er færdig med det, er det stadig dit.
Hvordan ved jeg, om det virker?
Du udfylder et valideret spørgeskema i starten og igen ved hver ugentlig gennemgang, så fremskridt bliver et tal, du kan følge, i stedet for en stribe af overholdte dage. Gennem 6 ugentlige gennemgange justerer programmet din plan baseret på dine egne data — og hvis tallet ikke rykker sig, vil du også kunne se det.
