able to get going which then makes you feel
guilty or lazy which then turns into an
ongoing self-defeating circle?

to crawl back in bed?

I know you.
I've been you.
I CAN HELP YOU GET OUT OF YOUR OWN WAY.
"Why can't I keep up?"
As a former overachiever and recovering perfectionist, that's what I used to ask when I compared myself to non-HSPs
Once I realized how differently HSPs take in
their environment and the world around them,
I began to see that what energizes
and revitalizes the non-highly sensitive person
actually depletes the heart-centered, introverted
and easily overstimulated person.
My Story
I am almost embarrassed to admit this, but I didn't really know that highly sensitive people (HSPs) "was a thing" until I stumbled on it by accident.
It was about twelve years ago and I had recently graduated from Widener University with my Master's degree in Clinical Social Work.
I was working as a Licensed Psychotherapist in a community mental health facility.
One of my clients once told me that from a young age, they would cry when they heard moving music or viewed beautiful artwork and asked if I knew why that might be.
After our session, I Googled "sensitive to music and art" and the term Highly Sensitive Person populated the page.
I went down the internet rabbit hole and within an hour had ordered Dr. Elaine Aron's book The Highly Sensitive Person.
I devoured the book in a weekend and took her Highly Sensitive Person questionnaire.
Out of 27-questions in Dr. Aron's "Are You Highly Sensitive" Self test, I scored a 26! (I didn't check the box about become nervous when being observed, in case you were curious.)
From then on, I have done endless research on the topic and even got to meet Dr. Aron in person!
The more I learned about myself and my fellow HSPs,
the more I realized we really thrived when we
interacted with other HSPs.
It felt amazing to feel seen, heard, and understood. Validation was so powerful.
I also quickly came to appreciate just how damaging it could be when working with a therapist or coach who didn't get the Highly Sensitive trait.
I witnessed the harm that could come from well meaning professionals telling HSPs that they "just shouldn't let it bother you" or informing HSPs that what they are upset about "really isn't that big of a deal" or that they "need to just let it go."
That type of feedback can make a highly sensitive person feel like they are "too much" which isn't true.
This is what led me to work exclusively with heart-centered, highly sensitive people, at first in the therapy field and later into the life coaching sector.
AND I LOVE EVERY MINUTE OF IT!
