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.

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.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
From one highly sensitive person to another, it can be a crazy world out there. Two things that I've found helpful:
1st, resiliency training: Although our bodies can react to things that other people might brush off, Somatic Experiencing can help build up our ability to settle our stress and activation levels. That party might still be uncomfortably loud, but it's more tolerable when you have confidence that you can quickly find comfort again once you leave.
2nd: Boundary training and asking for what you want: As we get better at knowing what would help us feel more comfortable, and better at asking for it, we can start to re-shape our environment to feel better. Then as we feel better, and as our loved ones know how to help us, we are more resourceful, more able to connect with others, and more able to be the people we want to be in the world.

Dr. Dawnn R. Meiers
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Welcome, my highly sensitive sisters, empaths, introverts, and tender creatives! I'm here with (and for) you. When we can't change the environment around us, we can cultivate skillfulness, practice self-compassion, and engage with nature as a place of refuge.
