Highly Sensitive Person
Soma Aloia, SoulWork Somatics & Somatic Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCST, HES
Highly sensitive people often experience the world with remarkable depth while also becoming more vulnerable to emotional overwhelm. Therapy helps you understand your sensitivity, strengthen regulation, and transform sensitivity into one of your greatest strengths.
I specialize in helping thoughtful, sensitive adults whose symptoms don't fit neatly into one category. Anxiety, chronic inflammation, complex trauma, nervous system dysregulation, relationship patterns, burnout, and feeling disconnected from yourself often share deeper physiological and early developmental roots.
Sensitivity is not a weakness to overcome. When understood and supported, it can become a source of insight, creativity, compassion, and resilience. Together we'll help you thrive without feeling overwhelmed by the world around you.

Lauren Palumbo
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
If you’re struggling to navigate life as an HSP, I’d be honored to support you. My wish is that you’ll see you don’t have to toughen up or dull your emotions to fit in. You can build a life that works with your sensitivity rather than against it. And when you do, you’ll find that what once felt like a struggle is actually your greatest asset.

Anneka Gavrin
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Being a highly sensitive person isn't a weakness. It's a way of experiencing the world with greater depth, awareness, and emotional intensity. While these qualities can be tremendous strengths, they can also leave you feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or exhausted. Therapy can help you better understand your sensitivity, develop boundaries that protect your energy, and embrace this part of yourself with greater confidence and self-compassion.

Highly Sensitive Person
Jenn Coonce
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Being a highly sensitive person can be a benefit, but can also make it hard to navigate relationships, work, or other areas of our lives. Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, you can learn how to cope with and work with your sensitivities and get more of what you want from life. You can understand what you can and can't control, and if any of your own behaviors and conflicts are contributing to your unhappiness. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better and to get more of what they want from life.

Shayda Ewalt
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Being highly sensitive is not a flaw, it is a nervous system trait. Many highly sensitive individuals have experienced environments where their depth, empathy, or emotional intensity were misunderstood. Therapy helps you understand your sensitivity as strength, develop regulation tools, and create boundaries that allow you to thrive rather than feel overwhelmed.

Liberation Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
Many highly sensitive people have spent their lives being told they are “too much” or “too sensitive.” In our work together, we reframe sensitivity as a nervous system trait rather than a flaw. We focus on emotional regulation, boundaries, overstimulation, relationships, and learning how to build a life that supports your sensitivity instead of overwhelming it.

Highly Sensitive Person
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist & Psychoanalyst
High sensitivity is a finely tuned way of taking in the world; it's not a flaw or weakness at all. Highly sensitive people experience emotions, relationships, and environments with unusual depth and intensity. In analytic work, we explore how this sensitivity has been shaped by early experiences and how it can become a source of strength rather than overwhelm, allowing for greater steadiness, meaning, and self-trust over time.
