Therapy for Highly Sensitive Women

“I Was Spiraling and I Couldn’t Get It Together…”

Before therapy, maybe your days look something like this: You wake up already overwhelmed. Your mind is racing, your chest is tight, and you feel like you’re barely holding it together. You’re sensitive—deeply so—and while that means you feel everything, it also means everything feels like too much.

You might be in the middle of a big life transition, but instead of adapting, you feel like you're unraveling. You cry easily. You can’t sleep. You snap at people you care about. You lie on the couch for hours, not because you’re lazy—but because you’re fried. Your emotions feel like waves you can’t get ahead of, and even small tasks feel impossible to start.

You may have found yourself thinking:

“I feel scrambled and out of control.”

“Why can’t I just get it together like everyone else?”

“I’m so down on myself, and I don’t know how to pull myself out of it.”

“I feel like I’m failing at everything—work, relationships, being human.”

If you’ve had these thoughts, I want you to know: you’re not alone, and you’re not broken. You are a highly sensitive woman navigating a world that isn’t always kind to sensitivity. But with the right support, you can feel grounded, clear, and whole again.

A Therapy Space Where You Don’t Have to “Get It Together” First

I provide therapy in St. Louis for highly sensitive women who feel overwhelmed, anxious, and stuck. My clients are often deeply intuitive, compassionate, and thoughtful—but also exhausted from constantly feeling like they’re falling behind or falling apart.

Therapy with me isn’t about “toughening up” or “snapping out of it.” It’s about learning how to honor your sensitivity, regulate your nervous system, and start making sense of your emotions—without shame.

In our work together, you’ll find:

A calm, grounded presence when everything feels chaotic

A soft landing where nothing about you is “too much”

Tools to move through panic, shutdown, and dysregulation

A compassionate guide to help you reconnect with your inner strength

Someone who gets what it’s like to live with high sensitivity

If you also live with ADHD or are navigating a neurodivergent experience, I understand how those layers can add even more complexity. We’ll work at your pace to make therapy feel doable, not overwhelming.

Therapy That Helps You Feel More Like You Again

You don’t need to “get it together” to start therapy. Therapy is how you begin to find your footing again.

Together, we’ll work on:

Calming your nervous system so you can think and breathe more clearly

Reducing anxiety and emotional spirals that feel out of your control

Understanding your sensitivity as a strength—not a weakness

Healing from burnout, emotional exhaustion, and relational wounds

Building supportive routines that actually work for you

Developing more self-compassion, so you stop beating yourself up for needing rest or support

Clients often tell me they feel more capable, more centered, and more hopeful after we begin working together. They’re not “cured” of their sensitivity—but they finally feel like they can live with it instead of being ruled by it.

Therapy in St. Louis That Meets You Exactly Where You Are

My clients describe me as calm, caring, and completely unshocked by their stories. I’m not here to judge or give you a checklist. I’m here to support you through the messy parts of overwhelm—and help you feel like you again.

You don’t have to keep pushing through. You don’t have to keep pretending it’s fine. It’s okay if you’ve hit your breaking point. In fact, that may be where healing begins.

You’re not too sensitive. You’re not lazy. You’re not weak.

You’re a highly sensitive woman navigating more than most people can see—and you deserve support that gets that. If you’re ready to start feeling calmer, clearer, and more in control, I’d be honored to support you.
