Being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP)—a trait scientifically known as Sensory Processing Sensitivity (SPS)—means your nervous system processes physical, emotional, and social stimuli more deeply and intensely than average. Coined by psychologist Dr Elaine Aron, this is a normal, innate personality trait found in roughly 15% to 20% of the population, not a flaw or a disorder.
Common Characteristics of an HSP
Deep Processing: Taking more time to reflect on situations, weighing choices carefully, and noticing subtle details, patterns, or shifts in the environment that others might miss.
Overstimulation: Feeling easily overwhelmed by bright lights, loud noises, strong smells, chaotic environments, or having too much to do in a short amount of time.
High Emotional Reactivity & Empathy: Feeling emotions very deeply—both your own and those of the people around you. You are often exceptionally intuitive, compassionate, and moved by art, music, or nature.
Needing Downtime: You need quiet, solitary time to decompress and recharge after a busy day or social gathering so you can process accumulated stress.
Sensitivity to Criticism: Being deeply hurt by harsh words or negative feedback, often because you hold yourself to high standards.
Thriving as an HSP
While the modern world can feel loud and demanding for sensitive nervous systems, high sensitivity also brings profound strengths, including deep creativity, strong intuition, conscientiousness, and rich empathy.
Remember: Your sensitivity is a unique strength. Learning to set gentle boundaries and honour your need for rest can transform how you experience the world.

Therapy with Ben
Counsellor/Therapist, MBACP
Some people identify as highly sensitive or experience emotions, relationships and their surroundings particularly intensely. I offer a calm, accepting space to explore how this affects you, including overwhelm, boundaries, self-esteem and the need for recovery time. I will work with your individual experience rather than treating the label as a diagnosis.

Jade at We Tackle Trauma
Counsellor/Therapist, MSW, QTS, BSc (Hons), MAASW
I offer a nurturing space and a non-directive warm joy-centred approach, to support your wellbeing in the way that aligns with your choices and preferences. This means that the language I use, and my engagement and therapeutic approaches are tailored to your personal engagement, communication, and learning style (visual, auditory, verbal, kinaesthetic, blended, creative, etc.). This is part of the process I use, to work with you in a trauma-informed, strength-based, person-centred way; to facilitate safety in the way you find most nourishing. As I have a broad toolkit, you can also choose to integrate creative, talking, and somatic practices; as you wish. This is your time designed and delivered your way.
Depending on the services you are seeking, we can explore things that may include maintaining wellbeing and regulation, finding stability in relational experiences that may be challenging or draining, and safer navigations of environments that may feel overstimulating; which may include career strategy as well. Whether that sounds good, or you are seeking something completely different, I offer free consultations; so please reach out, I look forward to meeting you. -Jade

Adima Hawkes
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychotherapist, Spiritual Teacher, Gene Keys Guide, Trainer Tibetan Acupressure & Iridology
I know about highly sensitive, because I am diagnosed it. The world and other people in it have often looked overwhelming and "too much" for me. This can lead to isolation.
The challenge is to differentiate between physical symptoms and reactions and emotional and psychological reactions. Sometimes certain measure or changes in the environment can help. The challenge is not to (blindly) escape or react with self judgement or repress. I found out that the more I open up to vulnerability, the more stable and confident I feel. I'd love to support you in accepting and fully embracing your sensitivities and learning to regulate yourself with them.
