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.

Working with a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) involves creating a calm, low-stimulation environment, embracing a slower processing pace, and validating their deep emotional experiences. Therapy helps them to reframe sensitivity as a strength, focus on boundary setting and nervous system regulation, and avoid rushing or overloading them with information. It is extremely important that HSPs learn to appreciate their Sensitive Strengths. Help them see the advantages of being Highly Sensitive and transform their perception of Sensitivity as a weakness. Self-compassion practices can help calm the inner critic and feelings of being different. Taking time to explore and reframe early life experiences through an HSP lens can be incredibly healing. Clients can begin to realize their challenges are not synonymous with their true self. Additionally, helping build awareness of body’s cues so the client can identify when they are beginning to feel overwhelmed - this makes it easier to reduce input, decrease stimulation and manage intense emotions.

I help highly sensitive individuals better understand their emotional depth, nervous system sensitivity, and relational needs. Therapy supports learning how to manage overwhelm, set healthy boundaries, and experience sensitivity as a strength rather than a liability.
