Janika Williams
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed, LPC, CSC
Being deeply affected by emotions, environments, or other people’s needs can feel overwhelming, especially when you’ve been told you’re too sensitive. We help clients better understand their emotional experiences, strengthen boundaries, and develop regulation skills without viewing sensitivity as something that needs to be fixed.

Being a highly sensitive person in a world that isn't built for sensitivity can be exhausting. I help you understand your sensitivity as a real trait, not a flaw, and build a life that works with it instead of against it.

I provide support for highly sensitive individuals, helping clients better understand and navigate heightened emotional and sensory responsiveness. Using evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and emotional regulation skills, I support clients in managing overwhelm, setting healthy boundaries, and reducing stress reactivity. My work focuses on reframing sensitivity as a strength, fostering self-awareness, and building practical strategies that allow clients to thrive with greater confidence, balance, and resilience in both personal and professional environments.

Jenna Wonish-Mottin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, RPT
I have training and experience with tailoring therapy to HSPs. As a Highly Sensitive Person myself, I can understand the strengths, challenges, and needs of my HSP clients. In therapy with me, I can help you to feel empowered to turn what seems overwhelming at times into something thriving and beautiful. Counseling for HSPs and HSCs may include discussions on having boundaries with others, using assertive communication when needed, finding the best skills to regulate emotions and nervous system responses, as well as identify and use sensitivity strengths as much as possible. Counseling with a Highly Sensitive Person and a Highly Sensitive Child can accommodate for more sensory comfort, depth of processing, collaboration, and validation.

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.
