Allison Falzone
Therapist, LMSW
Highly sensitive people often experience the world intensely, noticing subtleties, processing emotions deeply, and becoming overwhelmed more easily by stress or overstimulation. Influenced by the work of Dr. Elaine Aron, I help clients better understand their sensitivity and develop strategies that support emotional balance without suppressing who they are. Sensitivity can become a strength when approached with greater awareness and self-compassion.

Heinig Health and Wellness Counseling
Psychologist, Ph.D. Clinical Psychology, M.S. Health Psychology, M.A. Clinical Psychology, PSYPACT Providers
We provide supportive, individualized psychotherapy for highly sensitive and empathic adults who may feel deeply affected by emotions, environments, and interpersonal dynamics. Our approach helps clients better understand their sensitivity as a strength while also addressing challenges such as emotional overwhelm, boundary-setting, stress reactivity, and burnout. Through evidence-based strategies and a validating therapeutic space, we work with clients to develop regulation skills, strengthen resilience, and create balanced ways of engaging with the world that honor both sensitivity and well-being.

Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Do you turn down lights, pick clothes by how they feel, have trouble staying places with strong smells, or wish you could turn down the volume everywhere you go? Does it seem like you feel every emotion more quickly and intensely than others? Do you know what others around you are feeling before they even seem to know themselves? It is exhausting to feel like every sensation and every emotion is raw and open, and can make navigating relationships and boundaries challenging. With understanding and compassion we can work together to help you understand your sensitivity, manage overwhelm, and build confidence while honoring your unique strengths and needs.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a highly sensitive person myself, I understand how sensitivity can feel both overwhelming and deeply valuable. I use IFS, mindfulness, and somatic approaches to help clients manage overstimulation and shame while highlighting the strengths of empathy and awareness. Narrative and existential therapies further support meaning-making. My diagnostic training ensures accurate distinction between sensitivity, trauma, and neurodivergence, while I also use a sensory diet approach to help with regulation and self care.
