High Sensitivity

Elaine Aron first identified the trait of High Sensitivity that is present in approximately 15% of the population.  This trait includes sensory sensitivity, difficulty with transitions, and the experience of strong feelings.  It makes individuals more vulnerable to anxiety and depression when stress occurs. 

I am passionate about supporting Highly Sensitive children and adults in recognizing the strengths and joys of this trait and learning how to manage it in a way that makes their experience of the world less intense.  I also am available to help parents in supporting their Highly Sensitive Child.
