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.

Shannon Stern, LPC-S, LMHC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, LMHC
A Highly Sensitive Person is someone who feels deeply. If you consider yourself a HSP, you may experience emotions on a deep level, have heightened sensitivity to certain sights, sounds, smells, and textures. This can also mean you feel things deeply in relationships with others, and are often influenced by the emotions of others. Therapy can be helpful in learning more about this superpower, without it overwhelming you.
