Highly Sensitive Person
Dr. Samuel Hawkins, Praxis Counseling & Consulting
Licensed Professional Counselor, Ph.D., LPC
I understand how emotional and sensory stimuli can cause a person to feel overwhelmed. A person who handles other environments very well can find themselves in environments where it feels like each noise or possible conflict is magnified in a way that causes them to want to shut down and withdraw to a peaceful place. I also understand how others around them may not perceive what is bothering them and discount their feelings. I offer a supportive environment for discussing these experiences, and practical tools to use in managing the situations that trigger them.

Christine Sparacino

If you are a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) or an empath or healer/helper, you know how the world can be overwhelming and overstimulating. I help clients learn how to honor their empathy, protect their sensitivity, and turn it into a superpower.

Highly Sensitive Person
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.

Highly Sensitive Person
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.
