Debra Zand
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Being highly sensitive is not a flaw. It is your superpower. High sensitivity is a profound, inborn trait—not a clinical disorder. I will never try to change your sensitive nature; but instead will help you honor it. Highly sensitive people possess incredible empathy, deep intuition, and creative insight. I provide tailored therapy to help you thrive as your authentic, sensitive self. navigate overstimulation, set healthy boundaries, and transform emotional overwhelm into deep self-compassion.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in working with highly sensitive individuals who tend to feel things deeply, think deeply, and often become overwhelmed by the intensity of their internal and external experiences. Being highly sensitive is not a weakness—it’s a trait that, when understood, can become a strength. Together, we focus on helping you regulate overstimulation, set boundaries without guilt, and navigate relationships and environments in a way that feels more sustainable. My approach combines practical tools with mind-body awareness, supporting you in feeling more grounded, confident, and able to move through life without constant overwhelm.

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.

Sarah Wolfer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
Being a highly sensitive person in a world that moves too fast, feels too loud, and rarely slows down enough to match your depth is exhausting. What looks like anxiety or overwhelm from the outside is often just a nervous system that picks up on everything, and hasn't been given the right tools to process it all. I'm Sarah, and I love working with HSPs who are ready to stop pathologizing their sensitivity and start understanding it as the gift and the challenge it actually is. My approach is somatic and nervous-system informed, which tends to be a really natural fit for highly sensitive people. I also find that many of my HSP clients are also neurodivergent, queer, or both, and I'm well-versed in how those identities layer together. Telehealth in WA, ID, and FL.

If you're a person who experiences the world deeply and intensely, I am here to support you. In our work together, I’ll help you learn tools for emotional regulation, overstimulation, boundaries, and self-care. As a highly sensitive person, you can become pivot so that this becomes a strength rather than a source of overwhelm.
10 Years Experience
Online in Tri-Cities, WA (Online Only)
The Tri-Cities — Kennewick, Pasco, and Richland in southeastern Washington — form a fast-growing metro shaped by the Hanford nuclear site's cleanup workforce, agricultural and food-processing industries, and a large and growing Latino community. Mental health needs range from the occupational stress of Hanford's technical workforce to farmworker family pressures and the gaps in Spanish-language care that come with rapid demographic change. Local providers and telehealth carry most of the load, as the metro sits a long drive from Washington's larger therapy markets.
