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.

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.

Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychoanalyst, Psychotherapist
High sensitivity is a finely tuned way of taking in the world; it's not a flaw or weakness at all. Highly sensitive people experience emotions, relationships, and environments with unusual depth and intensity. In analytic work, we explore how this sensitivity has been shaped by early experiences and how it can become a source of strength rather than overwhelm, allowing for greater steadiness, meaning, and self-trust over time.
