Louisa Lombard
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPCC, PPS
Being a Highly Sensitive Person comes with great gifts as well as some unique challenges. Researchers estimate that 20-30% of people (and many animal species) are more sensitively-wired. In fact, it's estimated that over 40% of people who reach out for therapy are highly sensitive. I specialize in working with HSPs and have for a number of years. Learning about Dr. Elaine Aron's research around HSPs was transformative for me personally and professionally. I find that HSP clients as well as parents raising HSP kids benefit from HSP-knowledgeable and -supportive therapy, using a gentle approach that identifies and validates the gifts and provides strategies for navigating the tricky parts (prone to overstimulation in overwhelming environments, people-pleasing, perfectionism, boundaries, difficulty with conflict, among others). HSPs are deep feelers, deep processors, have immense empathy for others, and naturally notice all the details of people and the places they are in.

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.

Soma Aloia, SoulWork Somatics & Somatic Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCST, HES
Highly sensitive people often experience the world with remarkable depth while also becoming more vulnerable to emotional overwhelm. Therapy helps you understand your sensitivity, strengthen regulation, and transform sensitivity into one of your greatest strengths.
I specialize in helping thoughtful, sensitive adults whose symptoms don't fit neatly into one category. Anxiety, chronic inflammation, complex trauma, nervous system dysregulation, relationship patterns, burnout, and feeling disconnected from yourself often share deeper physiological and early developmental roots.
Sensitivity is not a weakness to overcome. When understood and supported, it can become a source of insight, creativity, compassion, and resilience. Together we'll help you thrive without feeling overwhelmed by the world around you.
