San Luis Obispo, California therapist: Christina Dee, marriage and family therapist
Highly Sensitive Person

Christina Dee

Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A. LMFT
High sensitivity is a neurological trait, not a flaw. I help HSPs understand and embrace their way of processing the world, develop tools for managing overstimulation and emotional intensity, and transform sensitivity into a meaningful strength.

Brooklyn, New York therapist: Greta Klaber, marriage and family therapist
Highly Sensitive Person

Greta Klaber

Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
When working with highly sensitive people, I start by getting to know your unique internal landscape—your sensory experiences, emotional responses, and how sensitivity shows up in your daily life. Together, we explore how your system moves through the world, and how environments not designed for sensitivity can lead to overwhelm. I work to normalize and contextualize these experiences, highlighting the strength in sensitivity while also acknowledging the need for support and maintenance. Our work focuses on helping you better understand and care for your system, especially during moments when your capacity feels limited. We build strategies that are sustainable and compassionate—rooted in somatic awareness, parts work, and self-understanding—so you can move through the world in a way that honors your sensitivity rather than working against it.

Lafayette, California therapist: Shohreh Schmuecker, marriage and family therapist
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.
