Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 144748, LPCC 18977
I work with highly sensitive adults who feel easily overwhelmed, emotionally reactive, or drained by expectations and stimulation. Therapy focuses on nervous system regulation, emotional boundaries, and understanding sensitivity as a strength rather than a flaw.

Elena Duong
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Highly sensitive people experience the world with greater depth, noticing emotions, details, and changes others may miss. While this sensitivity can lead to overwhelm, it also brings empathy, insight, and creativity. Understanding this trait is important because it helps people value their strengths, manage stress more effectively, and create environments where they can thrive.

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.

Santa Clara is at the heart of Silicon Valley, home to the global headquarters of major technology companies and a dense ecosystem of tech employers whose high-performance culture creates the well-documented mental health challenges of the sector—burnout, imposter syndrome, and the chronic stress of working at the frontier of global competition. The city is exceptionally diverse, with large South Asian and East Asian communities representing a significant proportion of the workforce, and the cultural dimensions of mental health stigma and help-seeking within these communities shape how therapy is accessed. Santa Clara University's Jesuit tradition contributes a values-oriented approach to student well-being, and the university's counseling center serves its student population. Common therapy concerns include tech industry burnout, anxiety, bicultural identity and acculturation stress, relationship difficulties, and the financial pressure of one of the most expensive housing markets in the country.
