Clare Campbell
Psychologist, Ph.D.
As a clinical psychologist with over a decade of experience, I provide intensive psychotherapy for individuals navigating anxiety and the emotional toll of persistent stress. I offer telehealth sessions to clients across the United States, as well as in-person appointments in Darien, Connecticut. My approach is highly individualized, grounded in the belief that meaningful change arises through a deeper understanding of one’s emotional life in the present moment. Together, we will work to uncover and shift long-standing patterns that may be interfering with your well-being, relationships, or sense of self. I aim to bring both compassion and challenge to our work—meeting you with respect, curiosity, and acceptance, while also encouraging growth toward a more authentic and connected version of yourself.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
I work with empaths at all levels to develop skills needed to dim the external noise and form a force field of protection from unwanted and depleting energies. We use hypnotherapy and related frameworks, along with visualizations, NLP, EMT and motivational programming. I give you tools you can use that allow you to climb out of a fear-based spiral in less than three minutes. I give you hypnotic programming that literally installs new hardware to wire in the new identity, beliefs, and emotions to empower you to feel invincible and turn on and turn off your gift of sensitivity as needed. Ultimately, you will once again feel safe in your own mind and comfortable in your own skin.

Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
You notice everything. The way someone’s tone doesn’t match their words. The shift in a room when tension walks in. The beauty in small, fleeting things most people rush past. You feel deeply, love fiercely, and carry more than anyone realizes—because from the outside, you probably seem composed, capable, even unshakeable.
But inside? It’s a different story. Loud noises feel like an ambush. Crowded schedules leave you overstimulated and drained. Criticism—especially from yourself—lingers far longer than you’d like. Maybe you’ve spent years wondering why things seem to hit you harder, why you can’t just “let it go,” or why rest never feels like enough.
Dr. Jenny Shields sees you. She understands what it’s like to live in a world that’s too fast, too harsh, too loud—and to feel like you’re too much for it. Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and compassion-based work, she helps sensitive souls turn down the inner noise, set boundaries that protect their peace, and reclaim their sensitivity as the strength it truly is. You don’t need to toughen up. You need space to be exactly who you are—and to learn how to thrive because of your sensitivity, not in spite of it.

Christine Sparacino
Psychologist, PsyD
If you are a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) or an empath or healer/helper, you know how the world can be overwhelming and overstimulating. I help clients learn how to honor their empathy, protect their sensitivity, and turn it into a superpower.

Dr. Jessica De Leon
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Being highly sensitive can mean experiencing emotions, relationships, environments, and sensory experiences with greater depth and intensity. Rather than viewing sensitivity as something that needs to be "fixed," therapy can help you understand your sensitivity, establish healthy boundaries, manage overwhelm, and recognize the strengths that can come with being deeply perceptive and attuned.
