Alyssa Lorenzo
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
You've probably been told you're "too sensitive" before. What if your sensitivity was instead treated as a strength? Let's partner together to create a more balanced narrative about your emotions.

Margo Tirado MA LCPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC
Highly Sensitive People (HSPs) experience the world with depth and intensity. Research suggests that about 15–20% of people are wired with a more sensitive nervous system, meaning they process emotions, sensory input, and social cues more deeply. This isn’t a flaw—it’s a temperament. But in a fast-paced, overstimulating world, high sensitivity can start to feel like “too much.” Many HSPs come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or unsure how to separate what’s theirs from what they’re absorbing from others.
In my work with highly sensitive clients, I offer a calm, grounding space where sensitivity is understood as a strength that simply needs support. Together, we focus on regulating overwhelm, setting boundaries that actually stick, and learning how to honor your sensitivity without apologizing for it. Therapy becomes a place to build confidence in your inner experience, trust your intuition, and create a life that feels nourishing rather than exhausting—one where your sensitivity works for you, not against you.

Paulina Birgiolaite
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW, CMNCS
Being a highly sensitive person means you experience the world deeply—emotionally, mentally, and physically. Without the right tools, that can feel overwhelming or exhausting. I help you better understand your sensitivity, set boundaries, and navigate your environment in a way that feels more manageable and empowering.

Fernanda Cutrone Krumm, LPC/LCPC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC (AL), LCPC (IL), LMHC (FL)
As a therapist who is also an HSP, I understand what it feels like to notice everything deeply — emotions, social cues, energy shifts — and sometimes feel overwhelmed by it all. I work with clients to manage intensity, protect their energy, and use sensitivity as a strength rather than a burden. Together, we develop practical strategies, grounding techniques, and ways to navigate life so that sensitivity becomes an asset instead of a liability. My approach is empathetic, real, and tailored to the unique experience of living life on a deeper wavelength.
