Melanie Carey
Counselor/Therapist, LMHCA
Being a highly sensitive person often means experiencing the world with greater depth — emotionally, physically, and intuitively. You may notice subtle shifts in tone, energy, or environment that others miss, and you may process experiences more deeply and intensely than those around you.
While sensitivity can be a profound strength, it can also feel overwhelming in a fast-paced or emotionally demanding world. Many highly sensitive clients come to therapy feeling overstimulated, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to stay grounded without shutting down their natural depth of feeling and perception.
In therapy, we work to understand sensitivity not as something to fix, but as an important way your nervous system and inner world are organized. From a trauma-informed and psychodynamic perspective, we explore how early experiences, relational dynamics, and nervous system patterns may have shaped how your sensitivity is expressed — including tendencies toward over-adaptation, people-pleasing, or emotional overload.
Using Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy, we gently turn toward the “felt sense” — the subtle, embodied awareness that is often especially rich in highly sensitive individuals. This helps you learn how to stay connected to your inner experience without becoming flooded by it, and how to differentiate between what is yours, what is relational, and what is environmental.
The goal of this work is not to reduce your sensitivity, but to support you in living with it in a way that feels more resourced, regulated, and aligned. This often includes building stronger internal boundaries, increasing nervous system capacity, and developing greater trust in your inner signals.
Many highly sensitive clients also reconnect with creativity, intuition, and a deeper sense of meaning as they learn to work with — rather than against — their sensitivity.
This approach is especially supportive for creatives, deep feelers, and those who have often felt “too much” or “too sensitive” in relationships, work, or family systems.

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.

Deborah Redmond
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Our world may often feel overwhelming in many ways that create acute and/or chronic stress. Our world may reinforce ideas, goals, personalities, that are not ones you share. At best it may seem unaware of your sensitivities. At worst it may strive to invalidate your sensitivities. We can work together to help you effectively honor your own sensitivities while managing a world that may often not.
