Allyson Eggleton with Beacon Therapy of Utah
Pre-Licensed Professional, CSW
I support individuals who identify as highly sensitive in understanding their emotional depth, reactivity, and tendency toward overstimulation. Therapy focuses on reducing overwhelm, building boundaries, and developing effective regulation strategies. We also work on reframing sensitivity as a strength, including increased empathy, awareness, and attunement. The goal is to help clients feel more grounded and empowered in how they navigate both internal and external experiences.

Embrace Your Sensitivity: A Gentle Path to Inner Harmony
Do you feel things deeply, experience quick emotional flooding, or find yourself easily overwhelmed by the world? High emotional sensitivity is a gift of deep empathy and awareness, but it can feel like a burden when you lack tools to navigate it. As an EFT and IFS therapist, I help you transform that overwhelm into inner strength.
Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), we will gently meet the "parts" of you that feel unprotected, self-critical, or anxious, helping them relax so you can lead your internal world with curiosity and compassion. Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), we will validate your intense emotions and reshape how you interact with them, turning overwhelming feelings into clear messengers of your deepest needs.
Together, we will build a safe, non-judgmental space where you can:
Unblend from overwhelming emotions, so you feel them without being them.
Heal the "exiled" parts of you that carry the weight of past, sensitive experiences.
Establish firm emotional boundaries to protect your energy.
Cultivate a deep sense of self-compassion, transforming your sensitivity into a source of wisdom and strength.
You don’t have to "fix" your sensitivity—you just need to learn how to harmonize with it. Let’s start that journey together.

Lisa Calderwood / New Dawn Counseling, LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
I work with this population by helping them to understand that it is not a mental illness to be highly sensitive and work with you to get to the root of some of why you respond in the ways you do and how to manage better using DBT skills among other modalities depending on your comfort level.

Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Do you turn down lights, pick clothes by how they feel, have trouble staying places with strong smells, or wish you could turn down the volume everywhere you go? Does it seem like you feel every emotion more quickly and intensely than others? Do you know what others around you are feeling before they even seem to know themselves? It is exhausting to feel like every sensation and every emotion is raw and open, and can make navigating relationships and boundaries challenging. With understanding and compassion we can work together to help you understand your sensitivity, manage overwhelm, and build confidence while honoring your unique strengths and needs.

West Valley City is Utah's second-largest city and one of the most ethnically diverse communities in the state, home to large Latino, Polynesian (particularly Tongan and Samoan), and refugee communities that make it dramatically different from the predominantly white, LDS suburban cities surrounding it in the Salt Lake Valley. This diversity creates significant demand for multilingual and culturally competent therapy, and the intersection of mental health needs across immigrant, refugee, and Pacific Islander communities with Utah's broader LDS religious culture—which shapes community norms around mental health and help-seeking—creates a complex and underserved landscape. Intermountain Health and Valley Behavioral Health provide services in the area, and community health organizations address the specific trauma and adjustment needs of refugee populations. Common therapy concerns include immigration and refugee trauma, acculturation, family stress, economic anxiety, and the challenges of navigating mental health in a city where cultural and religious contexts vary sharply across neighborhoods.
