Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
As a highly sensitive person, you may feel emotions deeply, become easily overwhelmed by stress or conflict, and spend a great deal of time overthinking or worrying about others. Together, we'll help you better understand your sensitivity, develop healthy boundaries, manage emotional overwhelm, and embrace your strengths without feeling like you have to change who you are. My goal is to help you feel more confident, balanced, and empowered so your sensitivity becomes a source of resilience rather than exhaustion.

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.

Barbara (Barchi) Fojkar

Experiencing the world deeply can be both a strength and a challenge. If you identify as highly sensitive, I offer a space where your sensitivity doesn't need to be changed or minimized. Together, we can explore overwhelm, boundaries, emotional regulation, relationships, and ways to honour your sensitivity while feeling more grounded in yourself.

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.

Rakan Himadeh
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, ISP Candidate
Being a Highly Sensitive Person doesn’t mean something is “wrong”; it means your nervous system processes the world more deeply and intensely. Somatic Experiencing (SE) and Integral Somatic Psychology (ISP) support HSPs by helping regulate the activation that comes with overstimulation, strong emotions, and subtle shifts in the environment. SE brings more stability to the body by working with activation, overwhelm, and the tendency to freeze or shut down when things feel too much. ISP adds emotional capacity, helping you stay present with feelings and sensations without becoming flooded. Together, these approaches create more resilience, clearer boundaries, and a grounded sense of self, allowing sensitivity to become a strength rather than a source of exhaustion.
