Aimen Bukhari
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 144748, LPCC 18977
I work with highly sensitive adults who feel easily overwhelmed, emotionally reactive, or drained by expectations and stimulation. Therapy focuses on nervous system regulation, emotional boundaries, and understanding sensitivity as a strength rather than a flaw.

Susanna La
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Have you often been told you are sensitive? Has life felt especially overwhelming these last few years? There is so much going on in the world in addition to the personal things we are dealing with day to day. Being highly sensitive may look like taking in the feelings of other people, thinking and processing deeply, and often feeling overwhelmed by these deep experiences. High sensitivity can often feel like a double edge sword of feeling both the immense beauty and pain of life. Learning more about your sensitivity and how to support your individual and relational needs may help. I'm here to support you as a fellow highly sensitive human.

Louisa Lombard
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LCPC
Being a Highly Sensitive Person comes with great gifts as well as some unique challenges. Researchers estimate that 20-30% of people (and many animal species) are more sensitively-wired. In fact, it's estimated that over 40% of people who reach out for therapy are highly sensitive. I specialize in working with HSPs and have for a number of years. Learning about Dr. Elaine Aron's research around HSPs was transformative for me personally and professionally. I find that HSP clients as well as parents raising HSP kids benefit from HSP-knowledgeable and -supportive therapy, using a gentle approach that identifies and validates the gifts and provides strategies for navigating the tricky parts (prone to overstimulation in overwhelming environments, people-pleasing, perfectionism, boundaries, difficulty with conflict, among others). HSPs are deep feelers, deep processors, have immense empathy for others, and naturally notice all the details of people and the places they are in.
