Highly Sensitive Person
Loren Soeiro
Psychologist, Ph.D. ABPP
If you experience emotions deeply, notice subtleties others miss, or feel easily overstimulated, you may have been told you are “too sensitive.” I see sensitivity not as a flaw, but as a temperament that requires understanding and skillful management. In therapy, we work to reduce overwhelm, strengthen boundaries, and clarify which feelings are yours to carry. The goal is to help you use your sensitivity as a source of insight and strength, rather than exhaustion.

Highly Sensitive Person
Kiona Edwards
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LCAT, ATR-BC
Being highly sensitive can mean feeling deeply attuned—to your environment, your relationships, and your inner world. While this can be a strength, it can also feel overwhelming or hard to navigate. I work with highly sensitive individuals to better understand and honor their sensitivity, develop boundaries, and build a relationship with themselves that feels supportive rather than overstimulating.

Highly Sensitive Person
Jenn Coonce
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Being a highly sensitive person can be a benefit, but can also make it hard to navigate relationships, work, or other areas of our lives. Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, you can learn how to cope with and work with your sensitivities and get more of what you want from life. You can understand what you can and can't control, and if any of your own behaviors and conflicts are contributing to your unhappiness. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better and to get more of what they want from life.

Highly Sensitive Person
Liberation Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
Many highly sensitive people have spent their lives being told they are “too much” or “too sensitive.” In our work together, we reframe sensitivity as a nervous system trait rather than a flaw. We focus on emotional regulation, boundaries, overstimulation, relationships, and learning how to build a life that supports your sensitivity instead of overwhelming it.

I work with many neurodivergent clients, whether you are formally diagnosed, self-diagnosed, or exploring what it means to be a Highly Sensitive Person.

Highly Sensitive Person
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.
