Do you feel like there was an explosion when others barely noticed what just happened? Highly sensitive people deal with a multitude of experiences and challenges that those who are not highly sensitive would not be able to fully understand. As a highly sensitive therapist with many highly sensitive clientele, I can help you with deep compassion, and effective approaches to work with this experience.

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.

Shirley Johnson,
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CYT
Sensitivity is not weakness; it is depth. I help highly sensitive individuals regulate overwhelm, honor intuition, and build lives that protect their energy without shrinking their gifts and build confidence with practicing and creating boundaries around their energy.

Layla Ashley Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Highly sensitive people (HSP) often experience emotions, environments, and relationships more intensely. As an HSP myself, I can help you understand your sensitivity as a strength while learning ways to protect your energy and maintain balance.

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.
