Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
I work with adults who identify as highly sensitive, helping them understand and navigate the intensity of their emotions, sensory experiences, and interpersonal interactions. I view sensitivity as a strength that can be supported and regulated, rather than a flaw, and I help clients develop strategies to honor their needs while managing overwhelm.
I integrate trauma-informed, somatic, and parts-based approaches to help clients regulate their nervous system, build resilience, and cultivate self-compassion. Together, we explore boundaries, coping strategies, and relational patterns to support well-being, emotional balance, and a deeper connection to themselves and others.

Christine Sparacino
Psychologist, PsyD
If you are a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) or an empath or healer/helper, you know how the world can be overwhelming and overstimulating. I help clients learn how to honor their empathy, protect their sensitivity, and turn it into a superpower.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people who feel and notice a lot. You might be deeply affected by others’ moods, small changes in tone, or the energy of a room. Loud noises, bright lights, busy schedules, or conflict may feel more overwhelming to you than to those around you. Many highly sensitive people grow up feeling “too much” or “too sensitive.”
As adults, this can look like needing more time to recover from social interactions or workdays; feeling easily overstimulated, wired, or shut down; taking on others’ feelings and struggling to find your own center; and being very conscientious, but also prone to burnout or self‑criticism.
Highly sensitive children and teens are often described as intense, dramatic, shy, or “overreactive.” They may have big feelings, strong empathy, vivid inner worlds, or a very thoughtful, observant way of moving through life. In environments that do not understand them, they can become anxious, withdrawn, perfectionistic, or reactive.
In our work together, we explore how your sensitivity shows up in your nervous system, relationships, and daily life. We look at what overwhelms you and what nourishes you so that sensitivity can become less of a constant struggle and more of a source of information, depth, and connection. When I work with children and teens, I also support parents in understanding their child’s sensitivity and responding in ways that feel more workable for everyone. Working with highly sensitive people is central to my practice, and I understand how much strength it takes to move through the world this way.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Highly sensitive people often experience the world with great emotional depth and intensity. My work integrates psychoanalytic exploration and somatic awareness to help sensitive individuals develop emotional boundaries, nervous system regulation, and self-trust. This process supports sensitivity as a strength rather than a source of overwhelm.
