HSP
Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
As a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), you feel and process stimuli the world presents in a manner that touches you more deeply than most. Whether it be the overwhelm of bright and searing lights, the grating or startling sounds of bustling activity or loud noises in your purview, or knowledge of the suffering of other people, animals, or the natural world, HSPs experience almost everything more intensely and, as a result, can easily become exhausted by overstimulation. At the same time, HSPs have been given the gifts of attunement and heightened empathy. We can transform these sensitivities into strengths as we learn to embrace our uniqueness, understand how we might differ from others, determine realistic boundaries, and learn to proactively communicate our needs.

Chloe Lankshear
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.Ed, Ed/S, LMFT
Being a highly sensitive person isn't a disorder or a curse - it's just who you are and how you are wired. I will help you explore both the pluses and minuses and help you acknowledge and enjoy the good, while perhaps better managing the downsides. Having good boundaries will be essential - for example, knowing where your limits are to avoid you getting excessively drained and knowing how to do good self-care. Whatever your goals are around being highly sensitive, I will work to help you figure out how to achieve them.

Eve Angela Fritsch
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A.
Being a highly sensitive person is NOT a weakness. You may feel emotions deeply, become overwhelmed more easily, or notice things that other people do not. I help highly sensitive individuals and couples better understand this unique quality. Together, we will learn how to work with your sensitivity instead of feeling controlled by it.

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.
