Nathe could work, but at some level it's not the bit - it's your hands that are "too much".

i would also make sure you are using soft hands and not using the reins a lot

i would try a happy mouth (solid and broken)
the leather bit uses a lot of tongue pressure and imo isnt the best for a sensitive horse
