Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a highly sensitive person myself, I understand how sensitivity can feel both overwhelming and deeply valuable. I use IFS, mindfulness, and somatic approaches to help clients manage overstimulation and shame while highlighting the strengths of empathy and awareness. Narrative and existential therapies further support meaning-making. My diagnostic training ensures accurate distinction between sensitivity, trauma, and neurodivergence, while I also use a sensory diet approach to help with regulation and self care.

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.

Dr. Janelle Louis

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.

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.
