Therapy for Highly Sensitive People is a therapy space that helps HSPs cope with common life challenges. HSPs have a hard time finding a therapist who understands high sensitivity - working with a therapist who doesn't get it can exacerbate the shame and brokenness HSPs already tend to feel. We're here to help HSPs embrace the gifts of their sensitivities and learn to love their tender souls.

I’ve heard from so many HSPs that they had a very difficult time finding a therapist who understood their high sensitivity. Therapists have different styles, and to achieve your therapy goals, you have to find a therapist who has a style that works for you and your sensitivity.

People who are considering counseling can spend weeks, months, or even years vacillating back and forth before making the call to schedule a therapy session. If you’re on the fence or want to schedule a therapy session but keep talking yourself out of it, this blog may be able to help you find a reason to take the next step.
