GRETA WEISS, LICENSED MASTER SOCIAL WORKER

Have you always been called a sensitive person? As highly sensitive people, we can often feel ashamed by the depth of our emotions. Therapy can be a space to unpack our inner experience, understand the value of our emotionality, and begin the journey of embracing this part of ourselves. I work with young adults to change their relationship with sensitivity. Whether you’re navigating a breakup, difficult family dynamics, or career stress, we will honor and give space to your emotions while building skills to cope with them. Together, we will release the shame and use your emotional depth as a guiding light forward. 


I believe that the foundation of therapy is simply two people connecting. As a therapist, I show up in session authentically myself: warm, down to earth, and collaborative. I am a professional, and I am also a human. I’ll likely understand your TikTok references, I get the pressures of being a young adult in today’s world, and we can even use a little humor when needed.

GRETA’S APPROACH:

My therapeutic approach is informed by a number of evidence-based modalities, including Psychodynamic Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and other mindfulness-based approaches. We can even bring in Enneagrams, Myers-Briggs, Tarot – whatever framework or language speaks to you. There are so many ways to connect more deeply and compassionately with yourself, and that’s the work I am here to support. 

Some of the specific topics we might cover are:

  • Understanding and honoring your sensitivity rather than seeing it as a weakness

  • Navigating the emotional aftermath of breakups or relationship shifts with compassion

  • Setting boundaries with family or loved ones while staying true to your values

  • Working through comparison, perfectionism, and the pressure to have it all figured out

  • Learning how to regulate intense emotions while still allowing yourself to feel deeply
