Do you often feel overwhelmed by the world around you? Like every harsh word sticks to you, and that you feel things more deeply than others? Do you often tell yourself that you're "too sensitive" or "too emotional"?

If so, you might be navigating life as a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP). This trait (that occurs in 15-20% of the population) isn't a flaw; it just means you experience the world with a heightened sense of awareness that not everyone understands. It can feel isolating, exhausting, and overwhelming.

As a highly sensitive person myself, I understand the unique challenges and strengths of highly sensitive individuals. Working together, we'll explore not just coping mechanisms, but ways to thrive with your unique perspective. We'll dive into identifying what overwhelms you, crafting strategies to navigate intense emotions, and transforming negative self-perceptions about your sensitivity into affirmations of your inherent strength.

Through our sessions, my goal is to provide you with the tools for: resilience, clearer communication in your relationships, and a deeper understanding of your sensitive nature as a superpower.

Steps we may take include:

• Identifying Triggers: Uncover what specifically overwhelms you and why

• Building Resilience: Transform how you view your sensitivity, seeing it as a source of strength

• Enhancing Relationships: Learn to express your needs and boundaries clearly for healthier connections.

• Growing Self-awareness: Deepen your understanding of how sensitivity shapes your experiences and perceptions.

• Regulating Emotions: Develop strategies for managing intense emotions, leading to a more balanced life.

Ultimately, what will change? My goal is to help you move through the world with more confidence, less anxiety, and a profound appreciation of your sensitivity as a gift, not a burden.

Your sensitivity is a strength waiting to be uncovered. I would be honoured to guide you toward embracing your sensitivity, enabling you to live life with a sense of peace and empowerment.

I provide individual, virtual psychotherapy in Ontario and I offer a free 20 minute consultation. Feel free to book a consultation here if you'd like to explore working together.
