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
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.

Highly Sensitive Person
Christie Roe
Therapist, LMSW
However high sensitivity shows up for you, I offer a trauma-informed, somatic and neuro-affirming care with attention to root causes, unmet needs, and resources tailored to you in body, mind, and relationships. One versatile technique I often use is known as memory reconsolidation, which creates transformative, lasting change through an open yet orderly process of unlearning and relearning with our response-abilities.

Highly Sensitive Person
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.
