Are you noticing increasing anxiety in your clients or maybe yourself? The statistics are in, and almost everyone knows someone with “anxiety” or is worried about stress or anxiety levels in a friend or a family member. Anxiety diagnoses are increasing, and it’s no wonder in a world simultaneously facing a global pandemic, economic upheaval, and unprecedented civil unrest.
Highly sensitive people are that 20% of the population with a finely tuned nervous system. Brain reactivity means HSPs process deeply, have strong emotional responses, and become easily overwhelmed by living in a world that is not designed for their sensitive brains and hearts.
Strongly impacted by their environment and the people in it, HSPs are more susceptible to and impacted by both challenges and positive interventions. They are more susceptible to anxiety or depression, but they are also more likely to seek out and make great improvements through therapy.
Up to 50% of therapy clients may be highly sensitive due to their highly reactive brains. With the right tools and understanding, you can make a significant difference when working with this population.
What is true, ethical, and research-based about highly sensitive people? Alane Freund has been working in the mental health field for over 30 years and has specialized in developing programs and interventions for highly sensitive people. In this webinar, she will discuss the science and practice of helping our more sensitive or reactive clients navigate our changing and intensifying environment. She will also explain differential susceptibility so that you can assess the impact of environmental stressors and your clients’ ability to manage overarousal and stress.
Objectives:
- List and describe the four identifying characteristics of High Sensitivity (otherwise known as Sensory Processing Sensitivity).
- Assess and compare High Sensitivity to other mental health diagnoses such as ADHD and Anxiety Disorders.
- Assess the impact of differential susceptibility and vantage sensitivity on mental health in clients with Sensory Processing Sensitivity.
