Together, we’ll bring relief to your stress from early life, other people, unjust systems, the changes and losses. Using evidence-based and cutting-edge tools like mindfulness, Brainspotting, Becoming Safely Embodied (BSE), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), we can help you become more present within yourself and your relationships, and feel more confident, connected, and alive.

Sometimes life experiences seem meaningless when we get out of sync with our needs, while trying to fit into a non-HSP culture. It can also be very lonely. I too am an HSP (with a bit of extroversion) and I can appreciate the drive to process things deeply. I use a relational depth psychotherapy approach. I provide a warm and inviting, at times playful, space to find meaning in life. Being an extroverted HSP can also be confusing. I can help you find balance and create meaningful connections, and reduce internal and external sources of overwhelm. I also work with HSPs struggling with depression, and those who wish to sort through difficult childhood experiences, like abuse, neglect, or sexual trauma.

I specialize in helping people manage highly sensitive natures (HSP), burnout, excessive people-pleasing, body-mind (somatic) symptoms, and life transitions. In sessions, I use my personal understanding of what it means to be HSP in a fast, loud, dominant, often insensitive culture. I am basically a ‘quieter people-person’. Because of that, I give you enough space to talk and ‘just be’, but am ready with a helping comment or question if you get stuck or don’t know what to say. In general, I support the search for your deserved and natural place in this world, by pulling out and highlighting your special gifts and qualities.

Hi, my name is Rebecca Spear, and I am trained in Analytical Psychology to compassionately assist you in releasing those negative patterns learned in childhood as coping mechanisms, which now have outgrown their usefulness in your life. Many Highly Sensitive Persons (HSPs) struggle through life never realizing emotions are invisibly triggered by past trauma events running unconsciously in the brain’s neural pathways causing pain, panic attacks, mood disorders, and addictions. Through the latest evidence-based techniques from brain research I utilize a psychodynamic approach with Brainspotting (BSP), Somatic Experiencing (SE), Mindful Awareness Practices (MAPS), Dream-Tending, and your own creative spark in Narrative Therapy or Art Therapy to unlock your true potential and become the unique self you were meant to be. In practice with HSP Individuals, Children, and Couples.

As a Highly Sensitive Person, I know what it feels like to be different. Being told I’m “too sensitive” (as if that’s a negative thing) to wondering why I can’t just be like “other” people. Since learning about what it means to be a HSP and becoming a licensed psychotherapist/clinical social worker, I have dedicated myself to working with other HSP teens, adults, and couples in my therapy practice. You don’t have to feel alone or think there’s something wrong with you. You are not alone and there is nothing wrong with you. Sometimes, we all need some professional support and guidance, especially from someone who understands your traits. In my therapy, you will gain more understanding of the what it means to be a HSP, create healthier relationships with others and yourself. With the right path, you won’t have to just survive as a HSP — you can thrive.
