HSP
Couples Counseling Center
Counselor/Therapist, Ph.D., LPC
When you and your spouse walk into a room, do you each pick up on dramatically different amounts of information? If one of you is highly sensitive, it may feel like you're living in fundamentally different worlds. I help couples bridge that gap so these differences in perception become a strength, not something that makes you feeling misunderstood, overwhelmed, or disconnected.

Pamela Angel
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I believe in turning "too sensitive" into a superpower. I help clients reframe their deep processing, intense empathy, and awareness of subtleties as profound strengths rather than flaws.
Many HSPs navigate a world that feels too loud, fast-paced, or overwhelming, often struggling with anxiety, burnout, or people-pleasing. My goal is to create a safe, validating, and slow-paced therapeutic space where clients can:
Set firm boundaries to protect their energy and nervous system.
Harness their empathy without absorbing the emotions of others.
Build self-compassion and embrace their unique temperament.
I specialize in HSPs because when given the right tools, they thrive, turning their sensitivity into a source of deep joy, creativity, and meaningful connection.

Subconscious Hypnotherapy
Hypnotherapist, C.Ht.
Being highly sensitive can make everyday experiences feel overwhelming or emotionally intense. Hypnotherapy helps manage overstimulation, strengthen emotional boundaries, and cultivate inner calm. Sessions support self-understanding, resilience, and a greater sense of balance in navigating daily life.

Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with people who feel and notice a lot. You might be deeply affected by others’ moods, small changes in tone, or the energy of a room. Loud noises, bright lights, busy schedules, or conflict may feel more overwhelming to you than to those around you. Many highly sensitive people grow up feeling “too much” or “too sensitive.”
As adults, this can look like needing more time to recover from social interactions or workdays; feeling easily overstimulated, wired, or shut down; taking on others’ feelings and struggling to find your own center; and being very conscientious, but also prone to burnout or self‑criticism.
Highly sensitive children and teens are often described as intense, dramatic, shy, or “overreactive.” They may have big feelings, strong empathy, vivid inner worlds, or a very thoughtful, observant way of moving through life. In environments that do not understand them, they can become anxious, withdrawn, perfectionistic, or reactive.
In our work together, we explore how your sensitivity shows up in your nervous system, relationships, and daily life. We look at what overwhelms you and what nourishes you so that sensitivity can become less of a constant struggle and more of a source of information, depth, and connection. When I work with children and teens, I also support parents in understanding their child’s sensitivity and responding in ways that feel more workable for everyone. Working with highly sensitive people is central to my practice, and I understand how much strength it takes to move through the world this way.
