Christina Harrison | Vicara Wellness |
Counsellor/Therapist, Integrative Holistic Coach and Practitioner | Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner |
Feeling deeply and noticing subtleties others may miss can be a beautiful capacity—and it can also become exhausting when your nervous system feels continually overloaded. You may absorb the emotional atmosphere around you, become easily overstimulated, need more recovery time, or have spent years believing you were simply “too sensitive.” I offer a space where sensitivity does not need to be fixed. Together, we can explore boundaries, nervous-system regulation, self-understanding, and ways of honouring your sensitivity while developing greater capacity to move through the world without continually becoming overwhelmed.

Sam Duran
Counsellor/Therapist, MAMFT, RCC, EMDR-Trained
Being highly sensitive can mean experiencing emotions, relationships, stress, and your surroundings with greater intensity. While sensitivity can bring empathy, thoughtfulness, and a rich inner life, it can also contribute to feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or deeply affected by conflict and difficult experiences. I provide a compassionate and respectful space to better understand your emotional responses, develop healthy boundaries, manage stress, and navigate relationships without viewing sensitivity as something that needs to be “fixed.” Together, we can build on your strengths while developing practical ways to feel more grounded, confident, and emotionally balanced.

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.

Kim Alscher
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RCC
Many individuals will immediately resonate with being highly sensitive, but may not fully understand the meaning or impact of this trait on overall wellness. You might have grown up hearing that you are "too sensitive", or have always had a vague sense that you were different or misunderstood. For Highly Sensitive Persons, chronic stress and overstimulation can take a real toll on both mind and body. I use a combination of evidence-based mind-body strategies, somatic awareness, and practical coping tools to help you regulate your system, reduce overwhelm, and feel more grounded and capable in daily life.

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.
