With the understanding of what a highly sensitive person is, having this in mind can be a helpful part of understanding how to navigate the challenges you're facing. I take this into consideration and allow it to inform my non-judgemental, empathic approach to our work together. The highly sensitive person may experience life slightly differently than others. This understanding can be a helpful perspective in discussing intra-personal or relational issues.

Heron Payne Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, RTC
Being highly sensitive can mean experiencing the world with greater emotional depth, empathy, and awareness, but it can also leave you feeling easily overwhelmed, overstimulated, or deeply affected by conflict, criticism, and other people’s emotions. You may have spent years being told you are “too sensitive,” learning to hide your reactions or push past your limits. I offer a space where sensitivity is understood as an important part of who you are, not something to fix. Together, we can work on boundaries, self-trust, emotional regulation, and creating a life that honours your sensitivity without letting it run the show.

Adrie-Anne Gamble
Counsellor/Therapist, MPCC, CCC, EMDR | ERP | IFS | Attachment
Many highly sensitive people have spent years feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or believing there is something wrong with them. Sensitivity is not a weakness. Together, we’ll understand how your temperament, life experiences, and nervous system interact so you can respond with greater confidence and less overwhelm.

Rebecca Bonham
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Canadian Certified Counsellor, MPS, MTS
Many of us learned that our sensitivity was a problem, a pain, or something that made us "too much," "too needy," or "too intense." At the same time, we also learned that others with high needs were happy to use us as a sponge for their pain, big feelings, and needs, resulting in overwhelm, loss of self, and burnout for these naturally empathic souls. Together we can explore the ways your sensitivity and empathy have impacted your relationships and your identity. We'll work together to help you heal your attachment wounds, practice healthy boundaries, and practice self-compassion and self care so that you can better access the incredible gifts of your sensitive nature - your wisdom and insight, a healthier expression of empathy, and deep wells of creativity!

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.
