The Highly Sensitive Person (HSP): Navigating a High-Definition World
From Sensory Overwhelm to Strategic Depth
About 20% of the population is born with a nervous system that processes information more deeply than others. While the world often labels this as being "too sensitive," in my practice, we recognize this as Sensory Processing Sensitivity—a trait that brings incredible empathy, creativity, and intuition, but also a higher risk for burnout and overwhelm.
The Challenges of the "Deep Processor"
Living as an HSP in a neurotypical, fast-paced society can feel like your "volume" is permanently turned up. We work together to navigate:
Emotional Overwhelm: Learning to distinguish between your own emotions and the "emotional residue" you pick up from others in the room.
Sensory Meltdowns & Shut Downs: Identifying the environmental triggers—loud noises, bright lights, or chaotic social systems—that lead to systemic exhaustion.
Rejection Sensitivity: Addressing the deep, often painful way that HSPs process social cues and perceived criticism.
The HSP Professional: Healers, Pastors, and Creatives
I have a "special love" for working with highly sensitive healers. Your sensitivity is likely what makes you an incredible therapist, pastor, or leader, but it is also what makes you susceptible to secondary trauma. We use a Systems Theory approach to:
Architect Your Environment: Creating "sensory-safe" professional and personal spaces that allow your nervous system to rest.
Attachment & Boundaries: Moving away from the "people-pleasing" often used as a safety strategy, toward a grounded, authentic way of relating to others.
EMDR for Overstimulation: Using EMDR to process past moments of "sensory trauma" or times when you were shamed for your sensitivity.
Honoring Your High-Definition Lens
With over 20 years of experience, I am here to help you stop apologizing for your depth and start honoring it. You don't need to "toughen up"; you need to develop the strategies that allow your sensitive system to flourish.
Your sensitivity is not a flaw in the system—it is a different, more intricate way of being human.

Robin Britt
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
Highly sensitive people often experience emotions, relationships, sensory input, and stress more intensely than others. This can be a strength, but it can also lead to overwhelm, self-doubt, difficulty with boundaries, or feeling misunderstood. In therapy, I help highly sensitive clients better understand their needs, recognize patterns that contribute to emotional exhaustion, and develop practical ways to protect their energy without withdrawing from the people and experiences that matter to them. The goal is to build greater self-trust, resilience, and confidence while learning to work with your sensitivity rather than against it.

Christina Song
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
I work with Highly Sensitive People (HSPs) from a strengths-based, nervous system–informed perspective. High sensitivity is not a flaw or diagnosis—it reflects a deep capacity for awareness, empathy, and emotional processing. In a world that often rewards speed, productivity, and emotional numbing, HSPs can feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or chronically depleted.
In therapy, we focus on understanding your sensitivity, supporting regulation, and creating boundaries that honor your capacity rather than push against it. Our work may include exploring sensory overwhelm, emotional attunement, relational dynamics, and the impact of chronic stress or trauma on a sensitive nervous system. Therapy becomes a space to build self-trust, reduce shame, and develop sustainable ways of living and relating that allow your sensitivity to be a source of wisdom, connection, and resilience—not exhaustion.

San Angelo is a west Texas city home to Goodfellow Air Force Base—a major Air Force intelligence training installation that trains personnel from multiple military branches and allied nations—and Angelo State University, giving this moderately sized city both a significant military population and an academic community that shape its mental health landscape in complementary ways. The city functions as a regional hub for a large area of west Texas ranch country, and its mental health services serve not just urban residents but the ranching, farming, and oil industry communities spread across a vast surrounding hinterland. Shannon Medical Center provides behavioral health services, and a private therapy sector serves the city's diverse needs. Common therapy concerns include military intelligence training stress, ranching and agricultural community pressure, Angelo State student mental health, economic anxiety tied to oil markets, and the mental health challenges of a small regional city carrying disproportionate healthcare responsibility for surrounding rural communities.
