Ann Abbey
Limited License Psychologist, MA, LLP, RYT
Highly sensitive people often experience the world more intensely: emotionally, physically and relationally. I help HSPs understand their wiring, reduce overwhelm, navigate stress and embrace their sensitivity as a strength rather than a burden. Together we work on emotional regulation, boundary-setting and creating a life that honors your sensory and emotional needs. My approach is gentle, validating and tailored to the unique experiences of highly sensitive adults.

Smee Wellness LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCPC, LCMHC
If you've been told you're "too much" or "too sensitive," your sensitivity is actually a strength that the world hasn't always known how to hold. We work on honoring your depth of feeling while building boundaries and coping tools that help you thrive instead of burn out.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a highly sensitive person myself, I understand how sensitivity can feel both overwhelming and deeply valuable. I use IFS, mindfulness, and somatic approaches to help clients manage overstimulation and shame while highlighting the strengths of empathy and awareness. Narrative and existential therapies further support meaning-making. My diagnostic training ensures accurate distinction between sensitivity, trauma, and neurodivergence, while I also use a sensory diet approach to help with regulation and self care.
