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.

Dr. Danielle Watkins at Sound Wellness Counseling PLLC
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, LMFT, LMHC, NCC, PMH-C
When working with highly sensitive persons (HSPs), I focus on supporting those who experience the world with heightened emotional depth, empathy, and sensory awareness. This specialty helps you better understand your sensitivity as a natural trait rather than a weakness, while learning skills to manage overstimulation, emotional overwhelm, and boundary-setting challenges. Through supportive and strengths-based approaches, counseling empowers you to regulate your nervous systems, build resilience, and embrace your sensitivity as a meaningful and valuable part of who you are.

Using evidence-based approaches such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and emotional regulation skills, I support clients in managing overwhelm, setting healthy boundaries, and reducing stress reactivity.

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.
