Shayda Ewalt
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Being highly sensitive is not a flaw, it is a nervous system trait. Many highly sensitive individuals have experienced environments where their depth, empathy, or emotional intensity were misunderstood. Therapy helps you understand your sensitivity as strength, develop regulation tools, and create boundaries that allow you to thrive rather than feel overwhelmed.

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.

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.

Christopher Cannon
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, CAS, SEP
If you feel things intensely, notice details others miss, or get overwhelmed by noise and crowds, you may be a highly sensitive person. Sensitivity is a trait to understand, not a flaw to fix. I help sensitive clients learn how their nervous system works, recognize early signs of overload, and build routines that let them use their perceptiveness as a strength.

Danielle Esses
Psychologist, PsyD
Being highly sensitive can mean feeling deeply affected by relationships, stress, criticism, or the emotional tone around you. Therapy can help you better understand your sensitivity, reduce overwhelm, and respond to your emotions in ways that feel both effective and self-validating.
