Marina Sud
Psychologist, PsyD, Certified in Brainspotting, Certification in Psychoanalysis
I help clients understand and embrace their heightened sensitivity as a unique strength rather than a burden. My work focuses on building emotional resilience, healthy boundaries, and self-acceptance while addressing overwhelm, anxiety, or burnout that often accompany high sensitivity. Together, we create a supportive path toward balance, confidence, and authentic self-expression—allowing sensitivity to become a source of insight, creativity, and connection.

Tiyahna M
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC,LPCMH,NCC,C-DBT
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in a gentle, flexible way that’s especially supportive for highly sensitive clients. Together, we explore thought patterns and behaviors while honoring your depth of feeling, intuition, and nervous system needs. The work is collaborative, paced carefully, and focused on building practical tools without minimizing emotional intensity. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, empowered, and at ease—without asking you to become less sensitive.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people who feel and notice a lot. You might be deeply affected by others’ moods, small changes in tone, or the energy of a room. Loud noises, bright lights, busy schedules, or conflict may feel more overwhelming to you than to those around you. Many highly sensitive people grow up feeling “too much” or “too sensitive.”
As adults, this can look like needing more time to recover from social interactions or workdays; feeling easily overstimulated, wired, or shut down; taking on others’ feelings and struggling to find your own center; and being very conscientious, but also prone to burnout or self‑criticism.
Highly sensitive children and teens are often described as intense, dramatic, shy, or “overreactive.” They may have big feelings, strong empathy, vivid inner worlds, or a very thoughtful, observant way of moving through life. In environments that do not understand them, they can become anxious, withdrawn, perfectionistic, or reactive.
In our work together, we explore how your sensitivity shows up in your nervous system, relationships, and daily life. We look at what overwhelms you and what nourishes you so that sensitivity can become less of a constant struggle and more of a source of information, depth, and connection. When I work with children and teens, I also support parents in understanding their child’s sensitivity and responding in ways that feel more workable for everyone. Working with highly sensitive people is central to my practice, and I understand how much strength it takes to move through the world this way.

April Bieber
Licensed Professional Counselor, CMHC, CPC, LCPC, LMHC, LPC, LPC-MHS, QS (FL)
If you feel everything deeply, you’re not “too much” — you’re wired differently. I help highly sensitive people navigate overwhelm, protect their energy, and turn sensitivity into a strength.
17 Years Experience
Online in Columbus, GA Georgia (Online Only)
Columbus, Georgia is home to Fort Moore (formerly Fort Benning) — one of the US Army's largest installations and the home of the Army Infantry — creating a therapy community substantially shaped by the needs of soldiers, veterans, and military families dealing with combat trauma, moral injury, PTSD, and the emotional complexity of service life. The city's African American population comprises a majority of the civilian community, and culturally affirming therapists who work with racial identity and intergenerational resilience alongside the predominantly military therapy demand are an important part of the local landscape. Martin Army Community Hospital serves the military population, while Piedmont Columbus Regional provides civilian institutional mental health resources. Columbus shares some of its therapy ecosystem with Phenix City, Alabama directly across the Chattahoochee River, giving the metro a bi-state character.
