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.

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.

Peter C. Jackson, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
If you identify as a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), you likely experience the world with exceptional depth, noticing details and subtleties that others might miss. While this brings rich insights and creativity, it can also lead to feeling drained, anxious, or overstimulated. I provide a supportive environment where we celebrate your unique nervous system and explore how to optimize your well-being. Our work focuses on building emotional resilience, creating nurturing practices, and developing personalized tools to navigate life's intensity, empowering you to thrive in your authenticity.
