Alicia Stalker-Gallichio LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, SAP
At Alicia Stalker LMFT we understand that being a highly sensitive person (HSP) can come with unique challenges and profound gifts HSP's often experience the world in vivid detail experiencing emotions more intensely and processing stimuli at a deeper level. While this sensitivity can enrich your fie it can also lead to feigns of overwhelm, anxiety or social exhaustion. My therapy services provide a safe and nurturing environment whereto can explore your experience and develop strategies to navigate the complexities of your sensitivity.

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.

Kelli Hall
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with many individuals who identify as highly sensitive or have been told they are “too sensitive” throughout their lives.
Often, this sensitivity is closely connected to heightened awareness, emotional depth, and a tendency to take on the feelings and needs of others. For many, it also overlaps with patterns of hypervigilance, people-pleasing, and difficulty setting boundaries.
Rather than viewing sensitivity as something to fix, our work focuses on understanding it, regulating the nervous system, and learning how to navigate relationships and environments in a way that feels more balanced and supportive.
This allows you to move from feeling overwhelmed to feeling more grounded, aware, and in control of your responses.

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.
