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.

Josie Munroe, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist
As a Highly Sensitive Person, you process the world in a uniquely deep way - emotionally, physically, and mentally. That can mean, however, that you often face overstimulation and overwhelm. But sensitivity isn’t a flaw, and with the right support, it can be a powerful strength.

Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychoanalyst, Psychotherapist, LCSW
High sensitivity is a finely tuned way of taking in the world; it is not a flaw or weakness. Highly sensitive people experience emotions, relationships, and environments with unusual depth and intensity. In analytic work, we explore how this sensitivity has been shaped by early experiences and how it can become a source of strength rather than overwhelm, allowing for greater steadiness, meaning, and self-trust over time.

Louisa Lombard
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPCC, PPS
Being a Highly Sensitive Person comes with great gifts as well as some unique challenges. Researchers estimate that 20-30% of people (and many animal species) are more sensitively-wired. In fact, it's estimated that over 40% of people who reach out for therapy are highly sensitive. I specialize in working with HSPs and have for a number of years. Learning about Dr. Elaine Aron's research around HSPs was transformative for me personally and professionally. I find that HSP clients as well as parents raising HSP kids benefit from HSP-knowledgeable and -supportive therapy, using a gentle approach that identifies and validates the gifts and provides strategies for navigating the tricky parts (prone to overstimulation in overwhelming environments, people-pleasing, perfectionism, boundaries, difficulty with conflict, among others). HSPs are deep feelers, deep processors, have immense empathy for others, and naturally notice all the details of people and the places they are in.

Lisa Chester-Schyman
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
As a therapist who understands the unique experiences of High Sensitive Persons (HSPs), I offer a gentle, affirming space to explore the challenges and gifts of sensitivity. It may be you feel easily overwhelmed, deeply affected by the emotions of others, or in need of more space and time to process life, we can work together to help you navigate the word with greater ease and self-compassion.

Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
As a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), you feel and process stimuli the world presents in a manner that touches you more deeply than most. Whether it be the overwhelm of bright and searing lights, the grating or startling sounds of bustling activity or loud noises in your purview, or knowledge of the suffering of other people, animals, or the natural world, HSPs experience almost everything more intensely and, as a result, can easily become exhausted by overstimulation. At the same time, HSPs have been given the gifts of attunement and heightened empathy. We can transform these sensitivities into strengths as we learn to embrace our uniqueness, understand how we might differ from others, determine realistic boundaries, and learn to proactively communicate our needs.

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.

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.
