strong & sensitive thrivers

"Sometimes, day to day life

feels  like it hurts more for me,

than it does for others"

People can be both
Strong and Sensitive


Sometimes living in the extreme of these opposites
brings an inner misery that others
just don't seem to have to deal with everyday.

  • struggle with any feedback;

  • feel negatively affected by the perception of judgement;

hustle & grind culture; social media likes & influencers; gender stereotypes; traditional teaching or parenting styles;

aggressive workplace or group leadership - can result in

praise for our extroverted traits and punishment for our introverted ones.

For many of us, all of this brings inner misery, turmoil and suffering.

When unbalanced, unprocessed, and misunderstood,
our personal sensitivities
can leave us open to risk of:


chronic stress, burnout, emotional exhaustion and mental suffering.
 

Psychotherapy may help you shift into working with your sensitivities to get what you want out of life - instead of hiding or forcing them to
"toughen up".
