Elaine Aron

Elaine Aron is a psychologist known for her research on highly sensitive persons (HSPs), a term she coined. She defines HSPs as individuals who possess a heightened sensitivity to various stimuli, including emotions and environmental factors. This trait can lead to deeper processing of experiences and heightened emotional responses. Aron has authored several books, including "The Highly Sensitive Person," which provide insights and strategies for HSPs to navigate their unique traits. Her work has contributed significantly to the understanding of sensitivity as a personality trait and its impact on individuals' lives and relationships.
