You need to be more specific...what do you mean by emotionally disturbed? If it is anger, then I can understand why you want it to be in control. But if it is anxiety, fear, unhappiness etc it needs to be worked through and just controlling it will not help....

Emotionally disturb is a flexible term, chances are it has to do with fear of feelings, something people don't readily explain. Usually your job would be, to help this individual THINK about these feelings, thoughts are our way of understanding and in a way controlling those feelings that disturb us. Neglecting this process would result in whats known as "emotional disturbance" so a general fix would be that, helping them to associated the feelings they fear, with the thoughts they need, to reassociate those feelings with something less fearful.
Lets say that a person feels pathetic in social interactions, they feel weak and purposless. If he help them to think something like "I'm worthy in a social interaction because I am a good person" you can help them over-come this. Easier said then done because our dialogue to ourselves is personal and indivdiual so envolves ALOT of research into that individual. Sort of like their a big religious person, they might think "I'm able to be helpful in my families lives because I'm a person of god" would be the same result but a different way, hence why the minds so much fun to play with!
