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.

Highly Sensitive Person
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.

Debra Zand
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Being highly sensitive is not a flaw. It is your superpower. High sensitivity is a profound, inborn trait—not a clinical disorder. I will never try to change your sensitive nature; but instead will help you honor it. Highly sensitive people possess incredible empathy, deep intuition, and creative insight. I provide tailored therapy to help you thrive as your authentic, sensitive self. navigate overstimulation, set healthy boundaries, and transform emotional overwhelm into deep self-compassion.

Empathy and intuition are your superpowers… but can leave you overstimulated, anxious, and depleted. Underneath all the adapting, managing, and achieving, your nervous system craves stillness. With Dr. Bike, you can design an in-depth intensive focused on learning to let your sensitivity guide you, not exhaust you.

Highly Sensitive Person
Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Do you turn down lights, pick clothes by how they feel, have trouble staying places with strong smells, or wish you could turn down the volume everywhere you go? Does it seem like you feel every emotion more quickly and intensely than others? Do you know what others around you are feeling before they even seem to know themselves? It is exhausting to feel like every sensation and every emotion is raw and open, and can make navigating relationships and boundaries challenging. With understanding and compassion we can work together to help you understand your sensitivity, manage overwhelm, and build confidence while honoring your unique strengths and needs.
