The Highly Sensitive Person (HSP): Navigating a High-Definition World
From Sensory Overwhelm to Strategic Depth
About 20% of the population is born with a nervous system that processes information more deeply than others. While the world often labels this as being "too sensitive," in my practice, we recognize this as Sensory Processing Sensitivity—a trait that brings incredible empathy, creativity, and intuition, but also a higher risk for burnout and overwhelm.
The Challenges of the "Deep Processor"
Living as an HSP in a neurotypical, fast-paced society can feel like your "volume" is permanently turned up. We work together to navigate:
Emotional Overwhelm: Learning to distinguish between your own emotions and the "emotional residue" you pick up from others in the room.
Sensory Meltdowns & Shut Downs: Identifying the environmental triggers—loud noises, bright lights, or chaotic social systems—that lead to systemic exhaustion.
Rejection Sensitivity: Addressing the deep, often painful way that HSPs process social cues and perceived criticism.
The HSP Professional: Healers, Pastors, and Creatives
I have a "special love" for working with highly sensitive healers. Your sensitivity is likely what makes you an incredible therapist, pastor, or leader, but it is also what makes you susceptible to secondary trauma. We use a Systems Theory approach to:
Architect Your Environment: Creating "sensory-safe" professional and personal spaces that allow your nervous system to rest.
Attachment & Boundaries: Moving away from the "people-pleasing" often used as a safety strategy, toward a grounded, authentic way of relating to others.
EMDR for Overstimulation: Using EMDR to process past moments of "sensory trauma" or times when you were shamed for your sensitivity.
Honoring Your High-Definition Lens
With over 20 years of experience, I am here to help you stop apologizing for your depth and start honoring it. You don't need to "toughen up"; you need to develop the strategies that allow your sensitive system to flourish.
Your sensitivity is not a flaw in the system—it is a different, more intricate way of being human.

Katherine Coder
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, PhD, LPC, LMHC
Highly sensitive people have special superpowers for feeling and perceiving. In my experience, HSPs are often not taught how to work with their sensitivity effectively and so it can feel confusing and overwhelming. HSPs also often grow up in environments where they are told that they are too sensitive so there can be shame around feeling so much. I help HSPs know how to work with their gifts and we work to release any shame and negative association with being sensitive.

Dr. Shannon Coleman
Psychologist, PhD
Some people experience emotions, sensory experiences, and interpersonal situations with particular intensity. Therapy can help you better understand your sensitivity, manage feeling overwhelmed, and develop ways to use your sensitivity as a strength rather than feeling controlled by it.
