If you find yourself having issues with perfectionism, rigidity, emotional loneliness, and that traditional psychotherapies don’t seem to work for you, this episode may help you
Do you ever feel like your sensitivity makes you overthink and overdo everything? In this episode of 'Eggshell Transformations', Imi Lo sits down with Hope Arnold, an expert in Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy (RO-DBT), to tackle the concept of overcontrol. Often, highly sensitive people develop overcontrol as a defense mechanism against perceived threats. This can lead to perfectionism, rigidity, emotional loneliness, and trouble expressing emotions.
Arnold breaks down what overcontrol is, where it comes from, and how it can be treated. If traditional therapies haven’t worked for you, this conversation might offer some new insights. Hope Arnold shares practical advice on finding the right therapist, the importance of assessments, and how corrective experiences in therapy can foster healing. Whether you struggle with overcontrol yourself or know someone who does, this episode is packed with valuable information and hope for change.
