Your Highly Sensitive Child: Helping your child flourish in an overwhelming world

Highly sensitive, spirited, empathic, shy, strong-willed … these are common descriptions of children who simply feel the world on a deeper level. As a parent it can be difficult to know how to respond to these deep emotions. You may feel that traditional parenting approaches don't work but you're worried that your child won't learn how to survive in the 'real world'. Now leading psychologist Dr Aoife Durcan offers expert advice on how to:

- Support your child in navigating big emotions, including meltdowns, with compassion and understanding. - Feel confident managing challenges like separation anxiety, school pressures and social interactions. - Help your child be less hard on themselves when things don't go well.These practical, research-backed tools will empower you to feel comfortable about your parenting style and, most importantly, help your child to thrive in a world that can sometimes feel like too much.
