Sage Synergy Counseling and Wellness
Online Therapy for Neurodivergent & Highly Sensitive adult women in Florida
About the Therapist & Licensure
Laura Lyn Zane, M.A., LMHC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the State of Florida (License #MH1094)
I provide online therapy via secure telehealth to clients who are physically located in Florida, in accordance with Florida licensure laws.
Who I Help
I help highly sensitive and neurodivergent adult women—including those who are ADHD, autistic, gifted, or dyslexic—who are experiencing burnout, anxiety, emotional overwhelm, and identity confusion after years of masking, overfunctioning, and adapting to systems that were not designed for their nervous system.
Many of the women I do individual therapy with also identify as empathic or intuitive and experience the world with deep emotional, sensory, and relational awareness.
This Therapy Is a Good Fit If You…
This work may be a strong fit if you:
Feel chronically overwhelmed despite being capable, insightful, and intelligent
Experience emotional or sensory intensity that others may not notice or understand
Have spent years masking, people-pleasing, or overfunctioning at work or in relationships
Are navigating burnout, anxiety, boundary challenges, or relationship strain
Have tried therapy before and are now seeking deeper, relational, insight-oriented work
Identify as neurodivergent, highly sensitive, empathic, or intuitive and want these experiences understood rather than minimized or pathologized
Hold spiritual, non-religious, or “woo-adjacent” belief systems (such as intuitive, mystical, or energetic worldviews) and want a therapist who can respect these perspectives without dismissing them or turning therapy into spiritual instruction
Therapy focuses on emotional regulation, nervous-system support, identity integration, and psychological wellbeing — not spiritual teaching, religious guidance, or belief endorsement.
When This Is Not the Right Fit
I may not be the right fit if you are:
Seeking formal testing or diagnostic evaluations for ADHD or autism
Looking for highly structured, manualized, or skills-only therapy
Wanting brief or solution-focused therapy without depth or relational work
In need of crisis intervention, inpatient-level care, or immediate stabilization
Seeking spiritual direction, religious counseling, or faith-based treatment
You are seeking relationship, couples or family counseling
Outside the State of Florida, due to licensure restrictions
My Approach to Therapy
My work is relational, insight-oriented, and nervous-system informed. I integrate evidence-based therapy approaches with attention to emotional regulation, identity development, and long-standing patterns of adaptation.
For clients who identify as empathic or intuitive, therapy often focuses on:
Understanding emotional and sensory sensitivity through a grounded, clinical lens
Strengthening boundaries and self-trust
Reducing exhaustion from emotional over-absorption
Learning when to engage deeply and when to protect personal energy
I also offer Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) when clinically appropriate. ART may be used as a focused intervention within a broader therapeutic process. Session count and outcomes vary and are not guaranteed.

You may be a strong match if you often think or say:
“I feel like I experience life more intensely than other people.”
“I look functional on the outside, but I’m exhausted inside.”
“I’ve spent years adapting to others’ needs and ignoring my own.”
“I want therapy that understands my sensitivity instead of trying to fix it.”
Signs We May Be a Strong Match
Why Other Therapists Refer to Me
Other therapists, coaches, and healthcare providers often refer clients to me when someone:
Is highly sensitive or neurodivergent and feels misunderstood in more structured or skills-based therapy
Has done “standard” therapy before but continues to struggle with burnout, masking, emotional intensity, or identity confusion
Appears outwardly high-functioning while internally experiencing chronic anxiety, exhaustion, or overwhelm
Identifies as empathic or intuitive and wants those experiences respected and grounded clinically, not dismissed or pathologized
Needs a relational, nervous-system-aware therapist rather than brief or manualized treatment
I am often a good referral fit for clients who need depth, attunement, and nervous-system awareness, especially when sensitivity and neurodivergence are central to their experience.
