About Sensitive & Queer

Sensitive & Queer was founded to create a supportive and empowering environment for those who are both highly sensitive and queer.

Are you a Highly Sensitive person?

A highly sensitive person (HSP) is someone with a personality trait called sensory-processing sensitivity, which affects about 20% of the population.

HSPs experience heightened reactions to emotional and physical stimuli, including bright lights, loud noises, emotional intensity, and even hunger or pain. While this sensitivity can feel overwhelming at times, it also comes with incredible strengths like creativity, empathy, and a deep appreciation for art and philosophy.

For LGBTQ+ individuals, navigating a world shaped by heteronormative expectations can intensify feelings of being ‘different’ or out of place. The combination of high sensitivity and not fitting traditional societal norms can sometimes leave you feeling isolated or misunderstood. But here’s the truth: your differences are your superpowers.

At Sensitive and Queer, we’re here to help you embrace your uniqueness, find strength in your sensitivity, and celebrate your authentic self. Sensitivity isn’t a weakness—it’s a gift that can unlock creativity, connection, and empowerment. This is your space to grow, connect, and thrive as your true self. Welcome to the journey.

The purpose

The mission of Sensitive & Queer is to help highly sensitive queer people feel proud to take up space, shape their own reality, and create an authentic, fulfilling path that feels right for them.

This community was created because so many sensitive LGBTQ+ folks have felt like they have to shrink themselves or hide parts of who they are. Here, sensitivity is seen as a strength, and queerness is something to celebrate — not something to tone down.

Even when the world doesn’t always feel welcoming or inclusive, this is a space to reconnect with yourself, reclaim your power, trust your inner voice, and build a life that feels deeply aligned, fulfilling, and unapologetically true to who you are.

It's easy to end up living a life that feels unintentional—a life where you constantly feel out of place, overthink everything, and are overwhelmed. It can be frustrating, suffocating, and isolating. That was my reality before I realised I was highly sensitive and really started tuning in to my own needs. I was able to connect with myself in a way I hadn’t experienced before and with that I began to intentionally design my world.

As a highly sensitive queer person, I struggled to find others like me, a community where I felt understood. So, I decided to create a space where highly sensitive queer people could explore together and learn more about themselves and design the life they want. I'd love for you to be a part of it.
