Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Being a highly sensitive person is not a weakness or disorder. You may experience emotions deeply, notice subtle changes, feel strongly affected by conflict, or become overwhelmed by stimulation and the needs of others. Without understanding and support, sensitivity can lead to anxiety, exhaustion, self-doubt, or difficulty setting boundaries.
I help highly sensitive clients understand and honor their nervous systems, regulate overwhelming emotions, establish healthy limits, and protect their energy without shutting down their empathy. Together, we transform sensitivity from a source of distress into greater self-awareness, intuition, compassion, and strength.

Sara Gillooly
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPCC
As a queer and AuDHD therapist myself, I have lived experience in learning how to live a life that feels more authentic and grounded. I specialize in working with queer, highly sensitive, and neurodivergent adults struggling with the impacts of trauma as well as feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, depression, burnout, relationship challenges, difficult family relationships, and identity exploration. Ultimately, I'm not interested in "treating" your neurodivergence but I will support you wholeheartedly in navigating the complexities that come with 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.

Heidi Hartston
Psychologist, PhD
Highly sensitive people are at greater risk for overwhelm and burnout. You may feel shut down by stress and conflict, and you may become overstimulated by absorbing the emotions of people around you. I can help you build resilience by creating healthy boundaries and regulating your nervous system to maintain calm and take a break from overthinking. I combine insightful, caring depth work with evidence based techniques that are most effective in freeing you from old unhelpful patterns, and helping you to maintain a peaceful, happy life.

Mia Turner
Therapist, MA, RYT, ASDCS, LMFT, NPT-C, CMNCS, CMIP
Support for highly sensitive, deeply feeling, intuitive, empathic, and sensory-aware individuals who experience the world with remarkable depth and intensity. Sensitivity is not viewed as a flaw or weakness, but as a meaningful way of perceiving, processing, and relating to the world.
Together, we explore the intersections of sensitivity, neurodivergence, nervous system regulation, trauma, creativity, spirituality, identity, and relationships. Our work may focus on sensory overwhelm, emotional intensity, boundaries, burnout, compassion fatigue, and unlearning messages that taught you your sensitivity was "too much." Instead, we cultivate ways of caring for your sensitivity as a source of insight, connection, wisdom, and strength.

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.

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.
