Welcome to the Highly Sensitive Person support site!

……Specializing in Online Therapy for HSPs….

If you are visiting this page, you are likely a Highly Sensitive Person yourself, or, perhaps, wondering if you are.

Being especially sensitive is actually a gift, although it doesn’t always feel that way.

Having a sensitive nervous system can present challenges in relationships, work environments, social situations and in coping with your own heightened emotional state.

As a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) myself, I know that we sometimes feel different than the rest of the culture and it’s not always easy to find kindred spirits and support. Like many HSPs, for some years, even though I’m a licensed psychotherapist, I didn’t realize that so many of my challenges in life were related to my sensitivity. Then, about 20 years ago, I recognized that what I had been interpreting as shortcomings, weren’t shortcomings at all — but were actually sensitivities.  What a relief it was to see that!

Since then, I have devoted myself to discovering life changing tools to help myself and other HSPs. These tools are simple techniques that can be done ‘on the fly’. They include techniques to help balance and soothe our sensitive nervous systems. They work by helping us tap into our parasympathetic nervous system, which is the ‘restful’ nervous system. What a huge relief it is to be able to feel comforted and soothed, rather than activated and stressed!

Knowing how much difference it can make to have the right tools and support, I love offering what has benefitted me to other HSPs.
