Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
Moving through a highly stimulating world with a porous nervous system is amplified exponentially when you are also navigating marginalised identities. As an online therapist in BC who works with heightened sensory and energetic attunement, I offer specialized support for sensitive individuals who are tired of trying to desensitize themselves to survive. Our relational work focuses on honouring your deep capacity for feeling, reframing your sensitivity as a vital form of embodied knowing, and protecting your energetic boundaries.

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.

Linda Szeto
Therapist, RCC, CCC
Being a highly sensitive person (HSP) can mean experiencing emotions, sensory input, and relationships more intensely. You might feel easily overwhelmed, need more time to recover after demanding experiences, or find that things others seem to brush off affect you deeply. My approach recognizes that people differ in how they experience and process emotions, and that therapy needs to reflect those differences. I adapt trauma processing approaches such as EMDR, alongside IFS, Brainspotting, and somatic techniques to meet your needs.

Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Being a highly sensitive person can feel both like a strength and a challenge. You may notice that you experience things deeply, feel emotions intensely, and are more impacted by your environment or the energy of others. While this sensitivity can bring empathy, insight, and creativity, it can also lead to feeling overwhelmed, overstimulated, or hard on yourself for not being able to “handle” things in the same way as others.
In our work together, I will create a space to better understand and support you. Through a trauma-informed and attachment-focused lens, we’ll explore how your nervous system responds to the world around you and develop ways to feel more grounded, regulated, and self-accepting. My approach is gentle and collaborative, helping you build boundaries, process emotions, and reconnect with your sensitivity as a meaningful and valuable part of who you are.
I draw from approaches such as IFS, ACT, Mindfulness-Based CBT, EMDR, and somatic-based practices, tailoring our work to your unique needs. Together, we’ll develop practical tools to navigate overwhelm while also supporting deeper healing and a stronger sense of self-trust.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to see if we’re a good fit.
