Being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) means your nervous system processes emotions, experiences, and your surroundings more deeply than most people. While sensitivity can be a strength, it can also lead to feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, anxious, or affected by stress, conflict, or sensory overload. At Trickett Psychotherapy & Counselling, we help adults better understand and embrace their sensitivity while developing practical strategies for emotional regulation, healthy boundaries, resilience, and self-confidence. We offer therapy for Highly Sensitive Persons in Guelph and secure online therapy across Ontario. Contact us today to book your consultation and learn how to turn your sensitivity into a source of strength.

Tina Presta
Counsellor/Therapist, CPCA MPCC- Provisional, CCPCPR.Cand
Being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) means your nervous system is finely tuned to the world around you—which can feel both like a gift and a source of constant, physical exhaustion. You process information deeply, feel emotions intensely, and are hyper-aware of environmental stimuli, subtle shifts in rooms, and other people's energy. In a fast-paced world, this often leaves you stuck in chronic overwhelm, fighting off high anxiety, and turning to perfectionism or people-pleasing just to feel safe and manage the sensory overload.I provide specialized, neurodivergent-friendly counselling support for Highly Sensitive Persons looking to thrive rather than just survive. Because an HSP's mind and body are so deeply connected, traditional talk therapy can sometimes feel like it only scratches the surface. We utilize Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to untangle the self-doubt, loud inner critics, and boundary challenges that HSPs often face. Crucially, we integrate somatic practices, tailored breathing exercises, and targeted visual exercises. By pairing these with neuro-experiential tools like Brainspotting, we can look beneath the surface to safely access, process, and release the accumulated physical weight of overstimulation and hidden emotional blocks right where they are held in your nervous system.You do not have to apologize for feeling deeply or hide your sensitivity behind a mask of high-achievement. Together, we will help you slow down, honor your unique traits, and build practical, everyday tools so you can move out of burnout and step into an aligned, intentional way of living. Along with individual therapy, I offer supportive group therapy spaces where you can connect with others who truly understand the experience of navigating the world with a deeply feeling heart and mind.

Yuka Oshimi
Counsellor/Therapist, MC, RCC, RCC-ACS (c), DCP(c), ADHD-CCSP
As someone with lived neurodivergent experience, I understand how overwhelming it can feel to notice everything, feel deeply, and absorb the emotional or sensory intensity around you. I support highly sensitive adults in building boundaries, reducing self-criticism, and honouring their sensitivity without feeling consumed by it.

Aria Fraser
Hypnotherapist, Certified Rapid Transformational Therapist
A highly sensitive person has a sensory processing sensitivity trait that allows them to process physical, social, and emotional stimuli at a much deeper level than non-highly sensitive individuals. It is not a medical illness or disorder, and about 15-20% of people have this trait. HSP's are more susceptible to get drained quickly from busy schedules and overstimulation, be their own worst critic, and internalize negativity if they are unaware of how to protect their mental health, which can lead them to acquire any of a number of unhelpful issues. Rapid Transformational Therapy helps to provide relief from many of the issues that an HSP might be affected by, such as anxiety, burnout, low self-esteem, depression, perfectionism, and poor stress-coping by implementing helpful suggestions directly to the subconscious of such things as: having powerful coping skills, suggestions of worth and value and purpose, empowerment beliefs, etc. Being an HSP myself, I have insight and experience as to what another highly sensitive person may need, and can provide ongoing support.
