A nice healthy atmosphere could mitigate some of that and extremophiles could, possibly, endure it without a heavy atmosphere. But life, if it's there, is probably going to be weirder than weird. The fact scientists are still talking about possible life on Titan tells me that well-adapted forms of life may very well be able to handle anything Proxima b throws at them!
