Learn to embrace your sensitivity, regulate your emotions & get back in control of your life.
Any of these resonate?
Your entire mood shifts in an instant when you get a text message from a friend that makes you feel insecure. It’s impossible to shake off the feeling for hours (or several days!).
You’re tired of hearing “don’t worry about it” or “you’re so sensitive” because it makes you feel like there is something wrong with you, and you don’t know what to do about it.
When you wake up feeling emotional after a vivid nightmare, the anxiety, sadness, or agitation seem to stick to you, and you end up having a hard morning.
You will smile and say you are happy to do a favor for a friend or coworker when deep down you know that you don’t really want to - you are tired of people-pleasing.
When you get home from work, you are exhausted. You watch TV or scroll because you are completely depleted from your day.
You feel guilty because there’s this part of you that knows you have a great life, yet there are so many moments where you can’t seem to fully appreciate all that you have.
Does it all just feel like too much?
Do you keep telling yourself you’re gonna stop the cycle of doing things that make it worse ?
Are you drinking or eating too much, escaping with social media or gaming, or completely isolating yourself?
The stakes are feeling pretty high right now
(to say the least…).
You are not alone. There’s a way you can turn things around once and for all.

I know it is exhausting to be on the roller coaster of emotions, and I want to help you get off of it.
Helpful Tools
Dr. Mary Kate is present, kind, empathetic, and great at explaining complex topics in a way that makes sense. In the time I have known her, I have learned to understand myself better. Why I react or feel a certain way or do the things I do. I have worksheets from her that I still refer to whenever I want. Dr. Mary Kate makes sure you know that you do have the tools and power within you to heal yourself, on your own time, in a way that feels good.

No Longer Overwhelmed
I don’t even think I realized how much I was pushing down my feelings until I did this course. Sometimes, I didn’t even recognize when I was having an emotion in the first place… I just avoided it. Dr. Mary Kate taught me how to notice the emotion and let myself feel it. I guess I would say that emotions are not as scary or overwhelming as they used to be.

Great Value
This program actually helps. A lot of ppl lie lie lie on social media and online to get their courses/coaches/memberships sold. I’ve spent money on mental health programs before and it all hype and no value. Dr Mary Kate seems like an ethical person and the quality of the program was really good.
Marissa, Mom and Psychotherapist
Imagine waking up one day and feeling like…
You have more energy than you’ve ever had before. You have a busy day ahead of you, and you’re excited about it because your work gives you a sense of purpose in your life.
You know exactly how you can respond when strong emotions surface, you days are no longer hijacked by big feelings.
When you are asked to do something you don’t want to do, you can actually say “no” without panicking and feeling super anxious.
You have the time and energy to get started on the passion project that you’ve been procrastinating on (or avoiding).
You have broken out of a cycle where your mood is dictating your life. You use tools to manage your emotions, which frees up mental space and time so that you can be productive and have fun.
Ready to meet your instructor?
Hi! My name is Dr. Mary Kate Roohan. I’m a licensed clinical psychologist, drama therapist, and coach specializing in helping emotionally sensitive individuals navigate their mental health challenges. With extensive training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I empower my clients with evidence-based strategies to live balanced and purposeful lives.
I’m passionate about this work because I am a feeler too! In fact, I developed this program with the following question in mind: What tools do I wish I had when I was younger?
The material I’m teaching in this program has changed my life - I hope it can change yours too.

No—this course is not therapy. While it will teach you skills that are based on therapeutic modalities, the course is an educational service designed to help you learn and practice skills.
If you are in need of therapy, please seek out a provider. There are several ways to start your search. Begin by checking with your insurance provider to find in-network therapists or inquire about reimbursement for out-of-network providers. You can also explore directories like Psychology Today, TherapyDen, or Zencare, which allow you to search for therapists based on specialty, location, and availability. Asking friends, family, or trusted professionals for recommendations can also be helpful. Finding the right therapist may take time, but it’s an important step toward prioritizing your mental health and well-being. You deserve support!
Most importantly, if you or someone you know is in immediate danger, please call a local emergency telephone number or go to the nearest emergency room. This group experience is intended to teach you educational mental health content and support you in building community. It is NOT a substitute for seeking professional mental health/health advice from your doctor or therapist. Interacting with my channel does NOT constitute a therapist-client relationship.

I get it—life is so busy! We live in a society of go, go, go, and it can be extremely overwhelming. One way that I think about this program is as an investment that will help you get back more time. When you put in the time to learn tools now, you actually end up having more time when you use these tools. The strategies in this course are designed to help you feel less overwhelmed.
-
It can be hard to know! I would recommend checking out some of my videos to see if you like my teaching style and if the concepts in those videos are helpful for you.
Also, keep in mind that if you come to the first session and decide that you do not want to continue, I can provide you with a full refund.

Well… first and foremost, I am emotionally sensitive, and I use these strategies in my own life. I was inspired to create this program because I suffered for many years on a roller coaster of emotions because I did not know these strategies and concepts. When I learned and started using emotion regulation strategies, my life changed. I want other sensitive people to have access to this information as soon as possible.
Additionally, I bring nearly a decade of experience in the mental health field to this course, and I have spent countless hours helping individuals connect with their emotions, manage big feelings, and build empowered, fulfilling lives.
I understand that it can be hard to trust me - we haven’t even met before! The good news is you do not have to trust me to trust the research. The "Empowered Feelers" program is filled with evidence-based strategies that help people change their relationship to their feelings. While this course is not therapy, it incorporates concepts from numerous therapeutic modalities, such as DBT, ACT, and EMDR.

Item desIf you’re unable to attend one of the sessions, you’re welcome to wait for the next cohort if you’d prefer.
That said, in my experience, it can be challenging for most of us to find six consecutive weeks where our schedules are entirely free—we are busy humans! If you are able to make a majority of the sessions, I do believe you will find that Empowered Feelers is worth your while.
Also, if you miss a session, you’ll have access to the replay so you can catch up on what you missed. You will also receive the slides from that missed session, and chat with your peers about what went down.
Many participants find that staying engaged with the group, even if they can’t attend every session live, is still incredibly beneficial.

If the current cohort time doesn’t work for you, please let me know at drmarykate.roohan@gmail.com.
I’d love to hear your availability so I can schedule future cohorts at a time that works better for you! If you have a conflict, there are also other Feelers out there that likely have similar conflicts. I hope to make this information accessible to everyone and am willing to be flexible with the timing of the course.
