Therapy for People-Pleasers & Highly Sensitive Adults in Kansas

If you’re highly sensitive or naturally attuned to others, you may notice things most people miss — subtle shifts in mood, tension in conversations, unspoken expectations.

While this sensitivity can be a strength, it can also become overwhelming.

You might:

• Feel responsible for others’ feelings

• Struggle to say no or set boundaries

• Feel guilty when prioritizing yourself

• Absorb stress from your environment

• Feel emotionally drained after social interactions

Many people-pleasers and highly sensitive adults learned early on that staying attuned to others helped keep the peace or maintain connection. Over time, this can lead to anxiety, resentment, or a loss of connection to your own needs.

In therapy, we focus on helping you:

• Differentiate between your emotions and others’

• Set boundaries without guilt

• Build trust in your inner voice

• Feel grounded and confident in relationships

I work with adults who identify as empaths, people-pleasers, or highly sensitive, offering telehealth therapy throughout Kansas in a space that is warm, validating, and non-judgmental.

Therapy isn’t about becoming less sensitive — it’s about learning how to care for yourself with the same compassion you offer others.
