Sensitive Sessions
Monthly Support to Slow Down, Reflect Inward + Understand Yourself as a Sensitive Person
Upcoming Live Workshops
Sessions will typically be offered on the 2nd Tuesday of the month over Zoom at two different times (60 minutes each, webinar style). You're welcome to join live or watch the recording.
Softening Perfectionism
August 2024
When you feel deeply and are easily overstimulated, criticism is difficult, even painful, to receive. So you do your best to keep everyone happy and go above and beyond in everything you do - even as you feel more and more depleted.
In this workshop, you'll learn ways to soften the anxiety and rewrite the messages that push you to sacrifice your own needs in an effort to be perfect.
August 20th at 12pm PT/3pm ET
and 4pm PT/7pm ET
Resetting After Stress
September 2024
Having your life and typical rhythm disrupted by a period of stress can impact you in significant ways. As a highly sensitive person, you may struggle to acknowledge the intensity of the impact and give yourself the time you need to find your baseline again.
In this workshop, you'll learn to care for yourself more intentionally following difficult times and also feel more prepared for the future.
September 10th at 12pm PT/3pm ET
and 4pm PT/7pm ET
Grieving Deeply
October 2024
Grief shows up in many ways from the loss of a beloved person to feeling disconnected from a part of yourself. When you're highly sensitive you feel any type of loss so deeply and may feel pressured to move on too quickly.
In this workshop, you'll explore the unique experience of grief through an HSP lens, all the ways it can show up in your daily life, and rituals to honor loss.
October 8th at 12pm PT/3pm ET
and 4pm PT/7pm ET

Guided Mindfulness
+ Relaxation Practices
We'll start and end every session with grounding practices to help you clear away what's not yours and feel more relaxed.
Journaling + Self-Reflection
Writing prompts will be offered as guidance to help you clear your head, reflect on your experiences, and integrate the lessons from that month's session.

Each month we'll explore a different theme through visually appealing slides + discussion to help you create a more balanced lifestyle, implement boundaries, and feel more fulfilled.
Private Facebook Group
Being in a space created just for HSPs can help you feel less alone and make it easier to recognize your unique needs for rest. A private Facebook group is available to keep the conversation going between the monthly workshops.

Hi, I'm April Snow, LMFT
I’m a licensed psychotherapist, author, and consultant in California who specializes in working with Highly Sensitive Introverts to help them overcome the stress and anxiety of living in a busy, overwhelming world.
Using mindfulness, self-compassion, journaling, and other experiential practices, I help HSPs fully understand their unique needs, release the guilt of prioritizing those needs, and start creating a life on their own terms so that their Sensitive Strengths can shine through.
Deeply committed to changing the narrative of what it means to be Highly Sensitive and understanding first-hand the powerful impact of community, I have created and led HSP workshops and retreats all over the country as well as online.
I created this series because...
I know how hard it can be to understand and take care of yourself as a Highly Sensitive Person. There is so much pulling for your attention and you want to get it right and you also want to show up perfectly for everyone who needs you. But then what's left for you?
If you don't have other HSPs in your life or at least people who know and honor their sensitivity, it can feel impossible to recognize your needs are different. You need more downtime, more reflection, more fulfilling activities. This can leave you feeling misunderstood, exhausted, overwhelmed, or even burned out.
This space will allow you to learn about the many layers of your HSP experience and care for your sensitive needs in a supportive space. Will you join me?
When you regularly nurture your HSP needs, so much becomes possible…
(1) You’ll feel calm, relaxed, and recharged more often.
(2) Have clarity about what your needs are and how to satisfy them.
(3) Access your creativity, intuition, and passion.
(4) Feel connected to yourself and what makes you feel alive.
(5) Get in touch with your needs and emotions, instead of always holding everyone else’s stuff.
(6) Become more self-aware and able to protect your energy with clear boundaries.
