Are you Highly Sensitive? Do you feel stressed out, burned out and past capacity? Do you feel overwhelmed and overstimulated by sights, sounds, crowds and chaos? Are you struggling with headaches, muscle tension and fatigue? Do you worry about making decisions, have a hard time trusting yourself and end up shutting down or freezing? At the end of the day, do you feel frazzled and just want to hide in bed with the lights off while blaming yourself for “overreacting”? You might just be Highly Sensitive (HSP) - born with increased sensory processing sensitivity that makes you keenly aware of all kinds of subtleties around you.
In therapy, we will create a safe, supportive space for you to learn how to better manage the stress, anxiety and low self-esteem that often plague HSPs. We will take an integrated, flexible and adaptable approach to therapy to best suit your particular concerns, wants and goals. Together we will help you feel more connected, respected and appreciated.
What would life look like if you felt calm, confident and connected? As a fellow HSP, I bring guidance & collaboration so we can learn how to leverage your gifts and create meaningful strategies to help you respond to difficulties! When you’re ready to leave your worry behind, I’m here to support you. For a free consultation please call or email me today!
