For the deep thinkers, big feelers, and sensitive souls ready to come home to themselves.
Online therapy in Colorado and California
Brooke Nielsen Yang, LMFT
When we're highly sensitive and/or neurodivergent (HSP, autistic, ADHD), we process the world differently. What feels easy to one person can feel like too much for someone whose nervous system takes everything in more deeply.
Often, those of us wired like this are empathic, creative, dynamic, playful, and thoughtful.
But the stress of trying to fit into a culture that wasn't made for us can cause us to cope by masking who we are and pushing past our limits, eventually leading to exhaustion and burnout.
Many of us also carry backgrounds with challenging family dynamics, or we've had experiences that asked too much of our sensitive systems.
By the time we find our way to therapy, we're often desperate for relief: from the self-criticism, the unrelenting standards, and the fatigue. And we'd like more joy in our lives.
When people begin therapy with me, they get to stop feeling like too much. Instead, they find someone who values kindness, warmth, and humor, and "gets it" from the inside out.
Helping people see themselves with kinder eyes, learn to trust their inner knowing, and create new patterns that honor their unique wiring is just the start. I also bring a unique perceptiveness to our work, illuminating patterns and dynamics that might otherwise remain hidden, often allowing change to unfold with surprising ease.
Your sensitivity is a gift. But it doesn't always feel like one.

Deep work for sensitive, creative + intuitive people.
My work is grounded in the belief that lasting change happens when we go beyond managing symptoms and begin working with the deeper layers of experience that shape how we relate to ourselves and the world.
Together we may explore:
• the roots of anxiety, overwhelm, and emotional intensity
• relational patterns and attachment wounds
• nervous system regulation and chronic stress responses
• identity, purpose, and life transitions
• the experience of being highly sensitive and neurodivergent in a world that often misunderstands us
This work integrates trauma-informed therapy, relational and experiential approaches. Rather than focusing on surface-level change, we get to the root of what's keeping you stuck.
For some clients, this process may also include ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) as a powerful catalyst for healing and insight.
Meet Brooke
Brooke is a trauma-informed therapist and the founder of the Therapeutic Center for Highly Sensitive People. For over 15 years, she has helped highly sensitive and neurodivergent clients move beyond self-doubt, overwhelm, and old patterns of self-protection into a more grounded, trusting relationship with themselves.
Her work goes beyond symptom management. Brooke helps clients heal the deeper roots of their struggles, reconnect with their inner wisdom, and begin to trust the subtle knowing they may have learned to silence.
Clients often experience shifts that ripple through every layer of their life, relationships, and sometimes even generational patterns.
Brooke brings warmth, depth, and careful attunement to her work, supporting people who often feel “too much” for the world in discovering that their sensitivity can become a source of clarity, strength, and belonging.

I offer virtual therapy to residents of Colorado and California, and coaching worldwide.
Many of my clients have spent their lives feeling like they experience the world differently than most.
They think and feel deeply. They notice subtleties that others miss. They carry both immense empathy and, at times, a quiet sense of responsibility for others.
Over time, this can lead to self-doubt, overwhelm, or a feeling of being untethered from their own center.
But you don't need to be fixed. You just need the right kind of support for who you are.
