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.

Anna Schick
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Being highly sensitive means you may experience the world more deeply, picking up on subtle emotions, changes in your environment, and the needs of others. While this sensitivity can bring empathy, intuition, and meaningful connections, it can also leave you feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or struggling to set boundaries. Therapy offers a space to better understand your sensitivity, explore what contributes to stress and emotional overload, and develop ways to feel more grounded and confident. Rather than trying to change this part of yourself, our work focuses on helping you embrace your sensitivity while creating more balance in your life and relationships.

When You Feel Everything Deeply
If you’ve ever been told you’re “too sensitive,” “too emotional,” or that you “care too much,” you may be what’s known as a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) — someone whose nervous system is more finely tuned to the world around them. I understand this on a personal level — I’m an HSP myself. Being highly sensitive is not a flaw; it’s a temperament trait shared by about 20% of people. It means your mind and body process information and emotion more deeply. You notice subtleties, feel others’ moods, and reflect deeply — yet that same sensitivity can make life feel overwhelming, especially when faced with stress, criticism, or conflict.
In therapy, we’ll use a structured, evidence-based approach called TEAM-CBT to help you embrace sensitivity as a strength while learning tools to manage its challenges. Together, we’ll focus on:
Calming the inner critic that tells you you’re “too much”
Reducing anxiety and emotional exhaustion from overstimulation
Setting healthy boundaries without guilt
Building confidence to share your true self with others
Developing emotional tools that turn sensitivity into insight and intuition
Our work will be both structured and gentle — blending neuroscience, mindfulness, and humor to help you feel grounded, capable, and at peace in your own skin.
I BELIEVE:
Sensitivity is not weakness — it’s awareness, empathy, and depth.
You can be both strong and soft, confident and cautious, independent and deeply connected.
Boundaries are not walls; they’re invitations to authentic connection.
You deserve a life that feels calm, balanced, and safe for your sensitive nervous system.
Healing doesn’t mean hardening — it means learning to stay open without being overwhelmed.
Also Integrated In Our Work:
• Interpersonal Work – to strengthen connection and empower you to be yourself using The 5 Secrets of Effective Communication
• Mindful Self-Compassion – to cultivate a gentler, kinder inner voice through the work of Dr. Kristin Neff
• Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) – to regulate the nervous system and support trauma recovery alongside cognitive tools for a well-rounded approach

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.

Danielle Esses
Psychologist, PsyD
Being highly sensitive can mean feeling deeply affected by relationships, stress, criticism, or the emotional tone around you. Therapy can help you better understand your sensitivity, reduce overwhelm, and respond to your emotions in ways that feel both effective and self-validating.

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.
