Dr. Divya Kakaiya Healthy Within
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist Ph. D M.S. BCN-L
Highly sensitive people experience the world through a nervous system with the volume turned all the way up — sensory input, emotional nuance, and social dynamics register more intensely, more deeply, and more exhaustingly than average.
Neurofeedback doesn't dull that sensitivity — it regulates the nervous system's threshold for overwhelm, training the brain to process rich sensory and emotional experience without tipping into dysregulation. The gift remains. The suffering diminishes.

Melissa Quinn Pollock
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The highly sensitive individual is imbued with sensory gifts that often get overrun by our environments. HSPs often have a higher likelihood and more intense experience of mental illness. We can work on unique ways to harness your gifts and alleviate stress.
