Michael Nakhla
Psychiatrist, MD
High sensitivity is a neurological trait, not a flaw, and I help HSPs understand and embrace their unique way of processing the world. My work focuses on developing strategies to manage overstimulation and emotional intensity while honoring the depth, empathy, and creativity that sensitivity brings. Together we'll transform what may have felt like a burden into one of your greatest strengths.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
When working with highly sensitive people, I start by getting to know your unique internal landscape—your sensory experiences, emotional responses, and how sensitivity shows up in your daily life. Together, we explore how your system moves through the world, and how environments not designed for sensitivity can lead to overwhelm. I work to normalize and contextualize these experiences, highlighting the strength in sensitivity while also acknowledging the need for support and maintenance.
Our work focuses on helping you better understand and care for your system, especially during moments when your capacity feels limited. We build strategies that are sustainable and compassionate—rooted in somatic awareness, parts work, and self-understanding—so you can move through the world in a way that honors your sensitivity rather than working against it.
