Finding Peace of the Poconos LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
We understand the unique needs of Highly Sensitive People (HSPs). Being highly sensitive is not a diagnosis—it's a temperament trait found in approximately 15–20% of the population. HSPs often experience life with greater emotional depth, heightened empathy, and increased responsiveness to both internal and external stimuli.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Highly sensitive people often experience the world with great emotional depth and intensity. My work integrates psychoanalytic exploration and somatic awareness to help sensitive individuals develop emotional boundaries, nervous system regulation, and self-trust. This process supports sensitivity as a strength rather than a source of overwhelm.

Dr. Lois Horowitz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Ph.D., LCSW
Psychotherapy and EMDR can help you to validate your own feelings and experience. This involves recognizing and accepting your emotions without judgment and understanding that your reactions are legitimate, especially in the context of abusive dynamics.

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.
