Bhavna Lalwani
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Counselling, RP
Being highly sensitive can be both a gift and a challenge. You may notice subtleties in your environment, feel emotions deeply, or become easily overwhelmed by stimuli, relationships, or stress. While these traits can foster empathy, creativity, and intuition, they can also lead to exhaustion, anxiety, or self-doubt if not well-managed.
In therapy, I help highly sensitive individuals understand and honor their unique traits, develop strategies for emotional regulation, set healthy boundaries, and cultivate resilience. Together, we focus on embracing sensitivity as a strength rather than a limitation.

True Health Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Tracey Nguyen, Holistic Advanced Nurse Psychotherapist RN, MN
I specialize in supporting highly sensitive people to embrace their unique gifts while healing the overwhelm that often comes with heightened sensitivity. My approach explores root causes like internalized abuse, broken boundaries, or an overactivated nervous system from unsafe early environments, which can amplify feelings of overstimulation or hypervigilance. Together, we work on downregulating the nervous system, addressing enmeshment trauma, and building stronger boundaries. I also honour the spiritual purpose of sensitivity-its ability to deepen emotional awareness, somatic experiences, and spiritual growth. By aligning with a soul-centred lifestyle, I help highly sensitive individuals transform their vulnerabilities into strengths, finding balance and purpose in their sensitivity.

Mollie Pfendt
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist
*Welcoming New Ontario-based Clients for Online Work*
I offer a grounded, compassionate space where you can slow down, feel into your experience, and reconnect with yourself.
I offer a grounded, compassionate space where you can slow down, feel into your experience, and reconnect with yourself.
You may feel the world deeply, noticing subtle shifts in mood, environment, and relationships. While this sensitivity can be a source of insight and empathy, it can also feel overwhelming in a fast-moving and demanding world.
In our work together, we’ll move at a pace that respects your nervous system. Through gentle awareness of your thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations, we’ll explore how your sensitivity shows up in your life and relationships. My approach is embodied and relational, weaving together the wisdom of your mind and body within a supportive therapeutic space.
Rather than trying to change your sensitivity, we’ll explore it together, helping you feel steady, clear, and able to embrace your attunement to the world as a strength.
If my approach resonates, I'd love for you to visit my website (molliepfendt.ca) to learn more or reach out to schedule a consultation call.

Justin Mulder
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Highly sensitive people should not be made to feel alone in this world. I approach our work together from a neurodiversity-affirming perspective. Rather than viewing it as something that needs to be “fixed,” I see it as a deeper way of thinking, processing, and engaging with the world. In our work together, we will look at how it shows up in your daily life trough things like self-criticism, emotional intensity, focus, motivation, and overwhelm. If you’ve spent a long time feeling like you’re the problem, therapy might be a place where that finally starts to change.

Kati Dobrei
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
As an HSP myself, I understand both the gifts and challenges that sensitivity can bring. Through my own therapeutic journey and clinical work, I've come to see sensitivity not as something to "fix," but as a strength that can be harnessed while learning to navigate the overwhelm that sometimes comes with it.

Samantha Williams-Lauder
Registered Social Worker, MSW,RSW
Being highly sensitive can mean feeling deeply affected by emotions, conflict, sensory input, criticism, or the needs of others. While sensitivity can be a strength, it may also become overwhelming without support and boundaries. Therapy can help you better understand your nervous system, honour your sensitivity, and build tools for grounding and self-care.

Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Being highly sensitive is not a flaw, weakness, or something you simply need to “toughen up.” For many people, sensitivity can mean experiencing emotions, relationships, environments, and stress more deeply — which can be both meaningful and exhausting.
High sensitivity can also overlap with trauma, neurodivergence, anxiety, sensory overwhelm, or years of feeling misunderstood, dismissed, or “too much.”
My approach is about helping you better understand your sensitivity, reduce shame, strengthen boundaries, and work with your nervous system rather than constantly against it. Together, we focus on building a life where your sensitivity can feel more like insight and strength — not just overwhelm.

Olga Lacroix
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, RSW, PCC
Highly sensitive individuals often experience emotions, environments, and relationships more intensely. While this sensitivity can be a strength, it can also lead to overwhelm, emotional fatigue, and difficulty setting boundaries. I help highly sensitive clients understand their nervous system, regulate emotional input, and develop tools to navigate life with greater balance, confidence, and self-compassion.

Paighe Rojas
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
If you feel everything deeply, get overwhelmed easily, or need more downtime than others, you may not be “too much”—you may be highly sensitive. Therapy can help you regulate stimulation, set boundaries, and stop internalizing other people’s energy. You can build a life that fits your nervous system instead of constantly pushing past it.

Kitchener — often referenced alongside Waterloo as part of the Waterloo Region — is at the center of Canada's most significant technology hub outside Toronto, home to the University of Waterloo, Wilfrid Laurier University, and dozens of major tech startups and scale-ups, creating persistent demand for therapists who work with innovation-sector burnout, high-stakes career pressure, and the psychological costs of startup culture. The region's growing immigrant population from South Asia, Africa, and the Middle East adds cultural diversity to therapy demand that the private therapy community is still catching up to reflect. Grand River Hospital provides institutional mental health resources alongside an active private therapy community. Kitchener's rapid diversification — beyond its German-heritage Oktoberfest identity — shapes a dynamic and evolving therapy culture.
