Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
You notice everything. The way someone’s tone doesn’t match their words. The shift in a room when tension walks in. The beauty in small, fleeting things most people rush past. You feel deeply, love fiercely, and carry more than anyone realizes—because from the outside, you probably seem composed, capable, even unshakeable.
But inside? It’s a different story. Loud noises feel like an ambush. Crowded schedules leave you overstimulated and drained. Criticism—especially from yourself—lingers far longer than you’d like. Maybe you’ve spent years wondering why things seem to hit you harder, why you can’t just “let it go,” or why rest never feels like enough.
Dr. Jenny Shields sees you. She understands what it’s like to live in a world that’s too fast, too harsh, too loud—and to feel like you’re too much for it. Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and compassion-based work, she helps sensitive souls turn down the inner noise, set boundaries that protect their peace, and reclaim their sensitivity as the strength it truly is. You don’t need to toughen up. You need space to be exactly who you are—and to learn how to thrive because of your sensitivity, not in spite of it.

Kelli Hall
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with many individuals who identify as highly sensitive or have been told they are “too sensitive” throughout their lives.
Often, this sensitivity is closely connected to heightened awareness, emotional depth, and a tendency to take on the feelings and needs of others. For many, it also overlaps with patterns of hypervigilance, people-pleasing, and difficulty setting boundaries.
Rather than viewing sensitivity as something to fix, our work focuses on understanding it, regulating the nervous system, and learning how to navigate relationships and environments in a way that feels more balanced and supportive.
This allows you to move from feeling overwhelmed to feeling more grounded, aware, and in control of your responses.

Brittany Ryan-Berzins
Psychologist, PhD
I work with highly sensitive individuals from a place of deep compassion and respect for the way they experience the world. Sensitivity can bring remarkable depth, intuition, empathy, and awareness, but it can also leave individuals feeling overwhelmed by emotions, relationships, expectations, or the intensity of everyday life. Rather than viewing sensitivity as something that needs to be fixed, I help clients understand and honor it as an inherent part of who they are while developing greater emotional regulation and resilience. Drawing from mindfulness, self-compassion, and cognitive behavioral therapy, we explore patterns of self-criticism, overthinking, perfectionism, and people-pleasing that can develop when sensitive individuals feel they need to protect themselves or adapt to the needs of others. Together, we cultivate greater self-acceptance, healthy boundaries, and trust in one’s own inner experience. The goal is not to become less sensitive, but to feel more grounded and confident in your sensitivity—able to experience life deeply without becoming overwhelmed by it.

Dr. Berkeley Antonioli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PhD, LCSW, LCSW-C, MEd
The majority of my training and clinical work has been focused on helping adults recover from early traumatic experiences. Often, the traumas my clients are working through is rooted in early relational and/or sexual experiences that leave a lasting impact on their formative developmental years and beyond. I have found that these early experiences often impact how clients have learned to operate and survive in relationships. Many have learned to be hypervigilant and highly attuned to the needs, emotions and experiences of others in order to survive. They may also feel their feelings deeply, and struggle with others who experience them as "too sensitive."

CHRISTIE BAUR PSYCHOTHERAPY
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
Being a Highly Sensitive Person can feel like both a gift and a challenge. You might notice things others miss, feel emotions deeply, or become overwhelmed by noise, conflict, or fast-paced environments. While sensitivity is a natural and valuable trait, it can sometimes leave you feeling drained, misunderstood, or like you’re “too much.” Together we’ll explore how your sensitivity shows up in your life and help you build tools to manage overstimulation, set healthier boundaries, and care for your emotional and physical needs without guilt. We’ll create a way of living that supports your nervous system, honors your needs, and allows your sensitivity to feel like an asset rather than a burden.
