10 Signs You Might Be a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP)
Have you ever been told you’re “too sensitive,” “overthinking everything,” or that you “just need to toughen up”? If so, you may actually be part of the 20% of the population who are Highly Sensitive People (HSPs).
Christina Sheehan, MS, LPC
As a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) myself (she/her pronouns), I know the struggle it can be to accept yourself and your unique abilities and needs. My dream is a world where all HSPs can feel their value and have the freedom to share their gifts in the world. Now, maybe more then ever, highly sensitive people and empaths are very needed to help care for this world. Through my private practice in Portland, Oregon I currently contribute by working with highly sensitive individuals on the issues that affect HSPs more deeply then others. This includes, covert narcissistic relationships, midlife transitions/crisis!, and learning about & accepting yourself.
