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.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a highly sensitive person myself, I understand how sensitivity can feel both overwhelming and deeply valuable. I use IFS, mindfulness, and somatic approaches to help clients manage overstimulation and shame while highlighting the strengths of empathy and awareness. Narrative and existential therapies further support meaning-making. My diagnostic training ensures accurate distinction between sensitivity, trauma, and neurodivergence, while I also use a sensory diet approach to help with regulation and self care.

Dr. Dawnn R. Meiers
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Welcome, my highly sensitive sisters, empaths, introverts, and tender creatives! I'm here with (and for) you. When we can't change the environment around us, we can cultivate skillfulness, practice self-compassion, and engage with nature as a place of refuge.

Juliana Sloane
Hypnotherapist, CHT
As a highly sensitive person, you feel emotions, stimulus, and stress so much more deeply than others. You don't need me to tell you that this can lead to exhaustion, anxiety, burnout, or self-doubt from the rigors of trying to fit into a world that is often simply way too intense. Hypnotherapy for highly sensitive people helps calm the nervous system and access the subconscious mind to create real, lasting relief. Through a gentle, evidence-based approach, you can strengthen your resilience, feel more hope, and find your way towards thriving even in a world that sometimes feels like too much.
