When working with highly sensitive persons (HSPs), I focus on supporting those who experience the world with heightened emotional depth, empathy, and sensory awareness.

Together, we’ll explore what it has meant to be wired this way — the wounds of feeling “too much,” the patterns you developed to cope, and what it might look like to stop apologizing for how deeply you feel.

Sarah Wolfer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
Being a highly sensitive person in a world that moves too fast, feels too loud, and rarely slows down enough to match your depth is exhausting. What looks like anxiety or overwhelm from the outside is often just a nervous system that picks up on everything, and hasn't been given the right tools to process it all. I'm Sarah, and I love working with HSPs who are ready to stop pathologizing their sensitivity and start understanding it as the gift and the challenge it actually is. My approach is somatic and nervous-system informed, which tends to be a really natural fit for highly sensitive people. I also find that many of my HSP clients are also neurodivergent, queer, or both, and I'm well-versed in how those identities layer together. Telehealth in WA, ID, and FL.

Melanie Carey
Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA
Being a highly sensitive person often means experiencing the world with greater depth — emotionally, physically, and intuitively. You may notice subtle shifts in tone, energy, or environment that others miss, and you may process experiences more deeply and intensely than those around you.
While sensitivity can be a profound strength, it can also feel overwhelming in a fast-paced or emotionally demanding world. Many highly sensitive clients come to therapy feeling overstimulated, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to stay grounded without shutting down their natural depth of feeling and perception.
In therapy, we work to understand sensitivity not as something to fix, but as an important way your nervous system and inner world are organized. From a trauma-informed and psychodynamic perspective, we explore how early experiences, relational dynamics, and nervous system patterns may have shaped how your sensitivity is expressed — including tendencies toward over-adaptation, people-pleasing, or emotional overload.
Using Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy, we gently turn toward the “felt sense” — the subtle, embodied awareness that is often especially rich in highly sensitive individuals. This helps you learn how to stay connected to your inner experience without becoming flooded by it, and how to differentiate between what is yours, what is relational, and what is environmental.
The goal of this work is not to reduce your sensitivity, but to support you in living with it in a way that feels more resourced, regulated, and aligned. This often includes building stronger internal boundaries, increasing nervous system capacity, and developing greater trust in your inner signals.
Many highly sensitive clients also reconnect with creativity, intuition, and a deeper sense of meaning as they learn to work with — rather than against — their sensitivity.
This approach is especially supportive for creatives, deep feelers, and those who have often felt “too much” or “too sensitive” in relationships, work, or family systems.

Tycee Belcastro
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT, CSTIP
Have you ever been told you’re “too sensitive,” “too needy,” or “too particular”? If those words sting, you’re not alone—they’re often thrown at highly sensitive people like you. But here’s the truth: you’re not “too” anything. You’re beautifully, uniquely you. Your sensitivity isn’t a flaw; it’s a gift—a superpower that lets you feel and notice the world in vivid detail. It’s like having a finely tuned antenna, picking up on emotions, nuances, and beauty others might miss. Sure, it can feel heavy when others don’t get it, when you are overwhelmed with input, or when you struggle to embrace this part of yourself. But I’m here to help you see your sensitivity as strength. Together, we’ll explore ways to harness this gift, use it to enrich your life and relationships, and find deep self-acceptance. With warmth and practical tools, I’ll walk beside you as you turn your sensitivity into a source of confidence and connection. You’ve got this, and I’ve got you.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
I work with this population by helping them to understand that it is not a mental illness to be highly sensitive and work with you to get to the root of some of why you respond in the ways you do and how to manage better using DBT skills among other modalities depending on your comfort level.

Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
You notice everything. The way someone’s tone doesn’t match their words. The shift in a room when tension walks in. The beauty in small, fleeting things most people rush past. You feel deeply, love fiercely, and carry more than anyone realizes—because from the outside, you probably seem composed, capable, even unshakeable.
But inside? It’s a different story. Loud noises feel like an ambush. Crowded schedules leave you overstimulated and drained. Criticism—especially from yourself—lingers far longer than you’d like. Maybe you’ve spent years wondering why things seem to hit you harder, why you can’t just “let it go,” or why rest never feels like enough.
Dr. Jenny Shields sees you. She understands what it’s like to live in a world that’s too fast, too harsh, too loud—and to feel like you’re too much for it. Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and compassion-based work, she helps sensitive souls turn down the inner noise, set boundaries that protect their peace, and reclaim their sensitivity as the strength it truly is. You don’t need to toughen up. You need space to be exactly who you are—and to learn how to thrive because of your sensitivity, not in spite of it.

Jason Holland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
If you are highly sensitive, you may feel things deeply and get overwhelmed more easily by conflict, noise, or constant demands. We can treat sensitivity as a temperament, not a flaw, and work on practical ways to manage overstimulation. This often includes boundaries, nervous system regulation, and improving how you navigate relationships and stress so you can feel steadier without having to shut down who you are.

MindOverHealing Therapies
Hypnotherapist, CHt
Hypnotherapy can be particularly beneficial for Highly Sensitive Persons (HSPs) by helping them manage overwhelming emotions and sensory experiences. Through deep relaxation and guided visualization, hypnotherapists can assist HSPs in developing coping strategies for stressful situations and reducing anxiety. This therapeutic approach empowers individuals to reframe negative thought patterns, enhance emotional resilience, and cultivate a greater sense of self-acceptance, making daily life more manageable for those who feel acutely affected by their environment.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a highly sensitive person myself, I understand how sensitivity can feel both overwhelming and deeply valuable. I use IFS, mindfulness, and somatic approaches to help clients manage overstimulation and shame while highlighting the strengths of empathy and awareness. Narrative and existential therapies further support meaning-making. My diagnostic training ensures accurate distinction between sensitivity, trauma, and neurodivergence, while I also use a sensory diet approach to help with regulation and self care.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people who feel and notice a lot. You might be deeply affected by others’ moods, small changes in tone, or the energy of a room. Loud noises, bright lights, busy schedules, or conflict may feel more overwhelming to you than to those around you. Many highly sensitive people grow up feeling “too much” or “too sensitive.”
As adults, this can look like needing more time to recover from social interactions or workdays; feeling easily overstimulated, wired, or shut down; taking on others’ feelings and struggling to find your own center; and being very conscientious, but also prone to burnout or self‑criticism.
Highly sensitive children and teens are often described as intense, dramatic, shy, or “overreactive.” They may have big feelings, strong empathy, vivid inner worlds, or a very thoughtful, observant way of moving through life. In environments that do not understand them, they can become anxious, withdrawn, perfectionistic, or reactive.
In our work together, we explore how your sensitivity shows up in your nervous system, relationships, and daily life. We look at what overwhelms you and what nourishes you so that sensitivity can become less of a constant struggle and more of a source of information, depth, and connection. When I work with children and teens, I also support parents in understanding their child’s sensitivity and responding in ways that feel more workable for everyone. Working with highly sensitive people is central to my practice, and I understand how much strength it takes to move through the world this way.
