San Francisco, California therapist: Talia Chanoff, marriage and family therapist
Highly Sensitive Person

Talia Chanoff

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I offer therapy for highly sensitive people from a framework that honors sensitivity as a meaningful and adaptive way of experiencing the world. Our work may include understanding how heightened emotional, sensory, and relational awareness can be both a strength and a source of overwhelm, especially in busy environments. Together, we focus on building self-compassion for your superpower, strengthening boundaries to help your nervous system down regulate, and developing sustainable tools, such as pacing, to care for your nervous system. These techniques can help highly sensitive people live with greater ease and authenticity in their bodies, rather than feeling like their natural system is something that needs to be changed or fixed.

Pasadena, California therapist: Chloe Lankshear, marriage and family therapist
Highly Sensitive Person

Chloe Lankshear

Marriage and Family Therapist, M.Ed, Ed/S, LMFT
Being a highly sensitive person isn't a disorder or a curse - it's just who you are and how you are wired. I will help you explore both the pluses and minuses and help you acknowledge and enjoy the good, while perhaps better managing the downsides. Having good boundaries will be essential - for example, knowing where your limits are to avoid you getting excessively drained and knowing how to do good self-care. Whatever your goals are around being highly sensitive, I will work to help you figure out how to achieve them.

Highly Sensitive Person

Shohreh Schmuecker

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Being a highly sensitive person means you experience the world deeply, often feeling emotions and sensations more intensely than others. While this sensitivity can be a gift, it can also feel overwhelming, leading to stress, exhaustion, or difficulty setting boundaries. In a supportive and understanding space, I help highly sensitive individuals learn to honor their unique nature, manage overwhelm, and build resilience. Together, we can explore practical strategies to protect your energy while embracing your empathy and intuition. If you are ready to embrace your sensitivity with greater confidence and achieve a more balanced life, please contact me to begin this important journey. Professional support is available to guide you along the way.

San Francisco, California therapist: Susanna La, psychologist
Highly Sensitive Person

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.

Seattle, Washington therapist: Aaron Kapin, somatic experiencing practitioner
Highly Sensitive Person

Aaron Kapin

Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
From one highly sensitive person to another, it can be a crazy world out there. Two things that I've found helpful: 1st, resiliency training: Although our bodies can react to things that other people might brush off, Somatic Experiencing can help build up our ability to settle our stress and activation levels. That party might still be uncomfortably loud, but it's more tolerable when you have confidence that you can quickly find comfort again once you leave. 2nd: Boundary training and asking for what you want: As we get better at knowing what would help us feel more comfortable, and better at asking for it, we can start to re-shape our environment to feel better. Then as we feel better, and as our loved ones know how to help us, we are more resourceful, more able to connect with others, and more able to be the people we want to be in the world.

Los Angeles, California therapist: Timothy Weymann, licensed clinical social worker
Highly Sensitive Person

Timothy Weymann

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (L.C.S.W.)
Highly sensitive people often experience the world with remarkable depth, empathy, and awareness—but that depth can also feel overwhelming. I work with highly sensitive clients to better understand and embrace their sensitivity as a strength, while building skills to manage overstimulation, emotional intensity, and boundary challenges. Together, we explore patterns such as people-pleasing, perfectionism, or difficulty saying no, and develop practical tools for nervous system regulation and emotional balance. Using evidence-based approaches, I help clients reframe self-criticism, strengthen boundaries, and cultivate self-trust. We also focus on honoring your needs for rest, reflection, and meaningful connection. My approach is warm, validating, and collaborative. Rather than trying to “toughen up” or change who you are, our work centers on helping you thrive as a highly sensitive person—grounded, confident, and empowered in your relationships and daily life.
