Kristina Risola
Counselor/Therapist, RMHCI, CRC, NBC-HWC
If you are autistic, neurodivergent, and/or LGBTQIA+ and tired of therapy that feels designed for everyone but you, we might click. I'm an autistic therapist who supports fellow neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ adults through trauma, anxiety, chronic illness, and the day-to-day challenges of navigating a world that feels incompatible with who we are. By exploring your unique experiences, communication style, and ways of relating to the world, I aim to create a space where you can drop the mask, heal what pains you, and discover what it means to be unapologetically yourself.

Christina Fay, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Being a Highly Sensitive Person is more common place than people believe. While it is not a diagnosis, it can be a way a person processes information or response to the world around them. Much like other treatments, working to better understand yourself, thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations can help slow down and make intentional choices in response to each. The focus is always to remain yourself and the person you want to be, to this point, we work on ensuring you show live life with intention and are able to move towards a positive quality of life.

Lauren Palumbo
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
If you’re struggling to navigate life as an HSP, I’d be honored to support you. My wish is that you’ll see you don’t have to toughen up or dull your emotions to fit in. You can build a life that works with your sensitivity rather than against it. And when you do, you’ll find that what once felt like a struggle is actually your greatest asset.

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.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
From one highly sensitive person to another, it can be a crazy world out there. Two things that I've found helpful:
1st, resiliency training: Although our bodies can react to things that other people might brush off, Somatic Experiencing can help build up our ability to settle our stress and activation levels. That party might still be uncomfortably loud, but it's more tolerable when you have confidence that you can quickly find comfort again once you leave.
2nd: Boundary training and asking for what you want: As we get better at knowing what would help us feel more comfortable, and better at asking for it, we can start to re-shape our environment to feel better. Then as we feel better, and as our loved ones know how to help us, we are more resourceful, more able to connect with others, and more able to be the people we want to be in the world.
