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.

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.

If you’re deeply affected by the world around you, you might experience emotions and sensory input more intensely than others. I help clients embrace their sensitivity as a strength, while developing practical ways to protect their energy and maintain balance. This includes learning calming techniques and cultivating inner peace to thrive in everyday life.

Amy Moroz
Psychologist, M.Ed.C.Psych. Clinical & Counselling Psychologist
I work well with highly sensitive individuals who often feel overwhelmed by emotion, overstimulated by their environment, or burdened by others' needs. Together, we slow things down and create a space where sensitivity is not a flaw, but a strength. Using emotion-focused, somatic, and mindfulness-based strategies, we explore protective patterns like people-pleasing or emotional suppression, and begin to reconnect with your inner clarity, boundaries, and self-worth.

Alison Taylor
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, GIT.Dip, CAPT, CRPO
If you identify as highly sensitive or easily overwhelmed, you may find yourself constantly pushing past your limits in order to keep up, connect, or meet expectations. What can feel like “too much” is often your system responding intelligently to the demands around you. In our work together, we slow down and explore how stress, burnout, and overstimulation show up in your body, your relationships, and your familiar ways of responding. I’ve spent much of my career as a movement and somatic educator exploring “grounding” techniques that help modulate sensitivity, and we can certainly draw on these techniques to explore what supports work best for you. However, our focus won’t necessarily be on making you less sensitive. (How has your sensitivity been a super-power? When has your sense-ability saved your life? Who needed you to be the feeler so that they didn't have to feel?) Rather, we can focus on helping you pay attention to your body’s your signals, honour your limits (limits actually give us freedom!), and rebuild sustainable capacity. This embodied, relational approach supports you in reconnecting with your sense of aliveness, developing clearer boundaries, and finding ways to fully engage with life while honouring your ability to sense-inwardly and sense-outwardly.

Ashleigh Bell
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, Qualifying
If you feel things “too deeply,” get overwhelmed in busy environments, or need more time to recharge, you may be a highly sensitive person. We’ll explore how your sensitivity shows up, protect your energy with boundaries and routines, and turn this trait into a strength rather than something to hide.

Tamara Daniszewski
Registered Social Worker, M.ED, MSW, RSW

In therapy, we help you understand your sensitivity as a strength rather than a flaw, while building coping tools to protect your energy and nervous system. You can be sensitive and strong at the same time.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
From one highly sensitive person to another, it can be a crazy world out there. Two things that I've found helpful:
1st, resiliency training: Although our bodies can react to things that other people might brush off, Somatic Experiencing can help build up our ability to settle our stress and activation levels. That party might still be uncomfortably loud, but it's more tolerable when you have confidence that you can quickly find comfort again once you leave.
2nd: Boundary training and asking for what you want: As we get better at knowing what would help us feel more comfortable, and better at asking for it, we can start to re-shape our environment to feel better. Then as we feel better, and as our loved ones know how to help us, we are more resourceful, more able to connect with others, and more able to be the people we want to be in the world.

Krishna Vora
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Highly sensitive individuals tend to process emotional and sensory information deeply. While this sensitivity can be a strength—allowing for empathy, creativity, and insight—it can also make environments and relationships feel overwhelming.
Therapy can help highly sensitive people develop strategies to manage overstimulation, set healthy boundaries, and regulate emotional intensity. Understanding sensitivity as a natural trait rather than a weakness can help individuals build confidence and protect their energy.

Amanda Neves Therapy + Associates

Being highly sensitive can feel like both a gift and a challenge. Emotions, sensory input, and the feelings of others may feel overwhelming, leaving you drained or misunderstood. Our trauma-informed, somatic, and experiential approach helps you understand your sensitivity, regulate intense emotions, and embrace your depth as a strength. Using Attachment-Focused Therapy, AEDP, and IFS, we explore relational patterns, self-criticism, and stress responses, creating a safe space to cultivate self-compassion, resilience, and balance. Sessions are offered in-person in Toronto and virtually across Ontario, making support accessible wherever you are.

Britney Victor
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
As an HSP you process stimuli deeply, which can lead to overwhelm in a loud world. I teach sensory-soothing, boundary setting, and nervous-system regulation tailored to sensitive nervous systems. Durham-area clients learn to turn sensitivity into a source of intuition, creativity, and authentic connection.

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.

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel easily overwhelmed, deeply affected by your environment, or emotionally impacted by situations others seem to brush off? Many highly sensitive people grow up learning to downplay their reactions or push through overstimulation because they’re told they’re “too much”, “too sensitive”, or need to toughen up. Over time, this can lead to exhaustion, self-doubt, or disconnection from your needs.
Sensitivity is not a flaw—it’s a trait rooted in depth of processing, awareness, and empathy. What matters is how you care for yourself when stimulation and emotions arise. Together, we can explore how your sensitivity shows up, understand what your nervous system needs, and develop ways to live that honour your depth rather than drain it—so you can feel more regulated, confident, and lighter in your day-to-day life. You experience the world deeply for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.

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.

Richmond Hill is a rapidly growing Toronto suburb in York Region with a majority Chinese population in many of its newer residential developments, alongside significant South Asian and Middle Eastern communities, creating strong demand for Mandarin-, Cantonese-, and Farsi-speaking therapists who can work within East Asian and Iranian cultural frameworks. The city's affluent suburban character and proximity to Toronto's tech and finance economy create a population with both the means and motivation to seek therapy, though help-seeking stigma in some East Asian and Middle Eastern communities remains a consideration. Mackenzie Health provides institutional mental health resources, with many residents also accessing the broader Greater Toronto Area therapy ecosystem. Richmond Hill's fast growth and relatively new development mean community ties can be shallow, and therapists frequently address social isolation and the challenge of belonging in a transient suburban environment.
