Sandy Kong
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 119380
Working with a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) involves creating a calm, low-stimulation environment, embracing a slower processing pace, and validating their deep emotional experiences. Therapy helps them to reframe sensitivity as a strength, focus on boundary setting and nervous system regulation, and avoid rushing or overloading them with information. It is extremely important that HSPs learn to appreciate their Sensitive Strengths. Help them see the advantages of being Highly Sensitive and transform their perception of Sensitivity as a weakness. Self-compassion practices can help calm the inner critic and feelings of being different. Taking time to explore and reframe early life experiences through an HSP lens can be incredibly healing. Clients can begin to realize their challenges are not synonymous with their true self. Additionally, helping build awareness of body’s cues so the client can identify when they are beginning to feel overwhelmed - this makes it easier to reduce input, decrease stimulation and manage intense emotions.

We frequently work with clients who are highly sensitive to the world around them. We help you understand your inner world, meet your needs, and navigate complex situations. Some of our highly sensitive clients love working more slowly and with mindfulness-based therapies so they can take their time, dive in, and explore.

Micaela Magazzu-Alaman
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Feeling deeply and noticing subtleties in your environment can be meaningful strengths, but they can also make a fast, demanding, and overstimulating world exhausting.
Highly sensitive people may find themselves deeply affected by relationships, conflict, noise, expectations, injustice, changes in their environment, or the emotional experiences of people around them. You may need more time for rest and processing than the world seems willing to give you.
Therapy can help you better understand your sensitivity without treating it as something inherently wrong with you. Together, we can explore boundaries, overstimulation, emotional regulation, relationships, rest, sensory needs, connection with nature, and ways of building a life that honors your sensitivity rather than constantly asking you to override it.
