Hi, I’m April, a psychotherapist who wants to help you understand your unique needs as a Highly Sensitive Person so you can discover your gifts and feel more fulfilled.
All in relationships
Grief shows up in many ways, from the death of a loved one to losing a part of yourself. Either way, the grieving process is complex and unique, especially for Highly Sensitive folks who feel deeply and need more time to process the meaning behind a loss. Remember to honor your feelings, even if others don’t understand or the emotions seem bigger than they should be. Take as much time as you need.
Highly Sensitive People often feel misunderstood, resentful and overwhelmed in relationships, so it’s important that Highly Sensitive People find a balance of quiet downtime for ourselves and meaningful shared experiences with our partners.
Why criticism is so difficult for Highly Sensitive People, typical responses when facing conflict and ways to manage without apologizing or blaming ourselves.
Cancelling plans is sometimes inevitable, but evokes guilt and worry. With a little direct communication and self-compassion, you can make this decision without hurting the other person’s feelings.
