>is there a middle ground between being strong and being sensitive?

No.  And looking for one would be assuming that there's a linear scale
between stregth and sensitivity.  But sensitive != doubleplusunstrong.
I don't think sensitivity (in this context) necessarily implies
vulnerability or weakness.  (Unless you're using the webster definition
3a: "easily hurt".)
