Highly Sensitive Person
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.

Highly Sensitive Person
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.

Highly Sensitive Person
Shayda Ewalt
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Being highly sensitive is not a flaw, it is a nervous system trait. Many highly sensitive individuals have experienced environments where their depth, empathy, or emotional intensity were misunderstood. Therapy helps you understand your sensitivity as strength, develop regulation tools, and create boundaries that allow you to thrive rather than feel overwhelmed.

Highly Sensitive Person
Josie Valderrama
Psychologist, PsyD
Too often we are gaslit by the outer world, told that we are too sensitive. When the opposite is more true: that we need to protect ourselves even more from the brutality of the world. Boundary work, intuition training, bolstering discernment via cognitive behavioral strategies--these are just a few of the approaches I utilize. Integrating head and heart. Challenging your comfort zone while strengthening your sense of safety, self-acceptance and peace of mind.

Highly Sensitive Person
Alyssa Habschmidt
Therapist, AMFT
I know what it's like to feel things deeply, have a heightened awareness of others, and be tuned into details that others may miss. You may be empathetic, creative, and deeply thoughtful—yet often told you're "too sensitive" or "overthinking." Stress, noise, and fast-paced environments can feel overwhelming, especially when you don't feel fully understood. I specialize in supporting highly sensitive people in deepening insight, honoring their sensitivity, and creating meaningful, self-led lives.
