HSP
Atlas Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
We support highly sensitive individuals in understanding and embracing their heightened emotional and sensory awareness as a strength rather than a burden. Through a compassionate, strengths-based approach, we help clients develop effective coping strategies for managing overwhelm, setting boundaries, regulating emotions, and navigating relationships and environments with greater ease. Our goal is to foster self-acceptance, resilience, and a more balanced, empowered way of living.

Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Being highly sensitive is not a flaw, weakness, or something you simply need to “toughen up.” For many people, sensitivity can mean experiencing emotions, relationships, environments, and stress more deeply — which can be both meaningful and exhausting.
High sensitivity can also overlap with trauma, neurodivergence, anxiety, sensory overwhelm, or years of feeling misunderstood, dismissed, or “too much.”
My approach is about helping you better understand your sensitivity, reduce shame, strengthen boundaries, and work with your nervous system rather than constantly against it. Together, we focus on building a life where your sensitivity can feel more like insight and strength — not just overwhelm.

Rikki-Lee Epp
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist, RP, BA, Dipl. Psych.
I support highly sensitive people by honoring their deep emotional attunement as a strength, not a flaw. Through a psychodynamic lens, we explore how early experiences may have shaped sensitivity into self-protection, hypervigilance, or self-silencing. Together, we create a space where your inner world can be safely explored—making room for clearer boundaries, self-trust, and a more grounded sense of identity.

Britney Victor
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
As an HSP you process stimuli deeply, which can lead to overwhelm in a loud world. I teach sensory-soothing, boundary setting, and nervous-system regulation tailored to sensitive nervous systems. Durham-area clients learn to turn sensitivity into a source of intuition, creativity, and authentic connection.
