Hochsensibilität bei Kindern

With empathy and knowledge: How parents can support highly sensitive children

Crybaby, mimosa or sensitive: Because highly sensitive children experience their everyday life very intensely and are therefore often overwhelmed, they are often prematurely labelled as too sensitive in kindergarten and at school. Unfortunately, this means that the potential of highly sensitive children disappears into the background, while their "problems" are the dominant topic for educators and families.

Melanie S. Vita is highly sensitive herself and supports children, young people and parents in her practice in recognising the strengths of high sensitivity (HSP). In this guide for parents, she shares her extensive knowledge and gives valuable tips for dealing with highly sensitive children in an appreciative way.

• Accompanying children: High sensitivity is a temperamental trait, not a disorder!
• Basic information on the topic of HSP: manifestations and special features
• With a questionnaire on high sensitivity in children: What applies to your child?
• From highly sensitive toddler to teenager: information for parents and educational professionals
• Newly revised and expanded edition of the successful title from Brendow Verlag

Together we can succeed: supporting highly sensitive children and promoting their strengths

Being highly sensitive means perceiving many things more intensely. As a result, highly sensitive people often have good empathy, are very creative and have a strong intuition. Parental support is needed to allow these abilities to develop. To avoid overstimulation, children with high sensitivity need opportunities to retreat and understanding.
Melanie S. Vita speaks from her own experience as a highly sensitive person and from family counselling. Her guide for parents is a comprehensive introduction to the topic and will help you to give your child the support they need!
