Gaithersburg, Maryland therapist: Washington Psychological Wellness, counselor/therapist
Highly Sensitive Person

Washington Psychological Wellness

Counselor/Therapist
At Washington Psychological Wellness, we understand the unique experiences of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) — someone who feels emotions deeply, notices subtleties others may miss, and can become easily overwhelmed by stress or stimulation. Our therapists provide compassionate, tailored support to help HSPs embrace their sensitivity as a strength while learning tools to navigate the challenges it can bring. We work with children, teens, and adults to build resilience, set healthy boundaries, manage overwhelm, and foster self-acceptance. Therapy can help you thrive in relationships, at work, and in daily life while honoring your authentic self. If you identify as highly sensitive, we’re here to support you on your journey to greater balance, confidence, and well-being.

The Woodlands, Texas therapist: Dr. Jenny Shields, psychologist
Highly Sensitive Person

Dr. Jenny Shields

Psychologist
You notice everything. The way someone’s tone doesn’t match their words. The shift in a room when tension walks in. The beauty in small, fleeting things most people rush past. You feel deeply, love fiercely, and carry more than anyone realizes—because from the outside, you probably seem composed, capable, even unshakeable. But inside? It’s a different story. Loud noises feel like an ambush. Crowded schedules leave you overstimulated and drained. Criticism—especially from yourself—lingers far longer than you’d like. Maybe you’ve spent years wondering why things seem to hit you harder, why you can’t just “let it go,” or why rest never feels like enough. Dr. Jenny Shields sees you. She understands what it’s like to live in a world that’s too fast, too harsh, too loud—and to feel like you’re too much for it. Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and compassion-based work, she helps sensitive souls turn down the inner noise, set boundaries that protect their peace, and reclaim their sensitivity as the strength it truly is. You don’t need to toughen up. You need space to be exactly who you are—and to learn how to thrive because of your sensitivity, not in spite of it.

Austin, Texas therapist: Christina Fay, Psy.D., psychologist
Highly Sensitive Person

Christina Fay, Psy.D.

Psychologist, Psy.D.
Being a Highly Sensitive Person is more common place than people believe. While it is not a diagnosis, it can be a way a person processes information or response to the world around them. Much like other treatments, working to better understand yourself, thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations can help slow down and make intentional choices in response to each. The focus is always to remain yourself and the person you want to be, to this point, we work on ensuring you show live life with intention and are able to move towards a positive quality of life.
