Danny Boylan
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Navigating the world as a highly sensitive person can be both deeply enriching and genuinely challenging. Many highly sensitive individuals are naturally attuned to subtle emotional cues, environmental details, and the inner states of others. This heightened awareness can add layers of intensity to everyday life that are often difficult to understand or explain, especially in a culture that tends to undervalue sensitivity.
In my work with highly sensitive clients, I view sensitivity not as a flaw, but as a meaningful personal characteristic that deserves understanding rather than correction. Learning to name and recognize this sensitivity — without shame or judgment — is often an important first step. From there, therapy can become a space to explore how sensitivity shapes emotional responses, relationships, boundaries, and self-expectations.
Being highly sensitive can bring profound gifts, such as deep emotional resonance, creativity, empathy, and moments of intense joy or connection through nature, music, art, or meaningful relationships. At the same time, it can also create challenges, including overwhelm, social fatigue, interpersonal difficulties, or discomfort in crowded or highly stimulating environments. I aim to help clients develop a kinder, slower, and more compassionate relationship with themselves, so that sensitivity can be integrated in ways that feel supportive rather than burdensome.

Taj Maddox
Counselor/Therapist, Associate Professional Counselor
Being highly sensitive can mean experiencing emotions, relationships, environments, and stressors more deeply than the people around you seem to. Therapy can help you understand your sensitivity without viewing it as something you need to “fix,” while learning ways to manage overwhelm and protect your energy. We’ll work toward helping you feel more comfortable with who you are rather than constantly trying to adapt yourself to everyone else.

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.

Yourdeline Sertyl
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Being highly sensitive can feel overwhelming in a fast-paced world. You may absorb others’ emotions, overanalyze interactions, or feel easily overstimulated. Therapy focuses on helping you understand your nervous system, develop emotional regulation skills, and create boundaries that protect your energy without losing your empathy and depth.

Kelly McAleer
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Experiencing the world with greater emotional depth and sensitivity can be meaningful, but it can also feel lonely or overwhelming when others don’t seem to experience things with the same intensity. Therapy offers a space to explore the depth of your feelings and experiences without viewing your sensitivity, perceptions, or way of engaging with the world as something that needs to be changed or corrected.
