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!

Candice Seligman
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, DVATI, CCC
Being highly sensitive is a gift that for many people feels like a curse. It can cause burnout, overwhelm, stress, sensitivity to people, emotions, energies, environments, and more. As an HSP myself, I love supporting clients in learning how to navigate the struggles of being highly sensitive and to cultivate the beauty of their sensitivity. You may have a nervous system and energy field that processes deeply, feels fully, and often carries more than it should. Maybe you've been told you are too much, too emotional, or too sensitive. It might feel like you don't quite fit in, or like others don't understand you. Our work supports you in understanding your nervous system, and healing on the level of body, emotion, and energy.

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist , BSc, MACP
Highly sensitive individuals often experience emotions and environments more intensely. Therapy helps develop tools to manage emotional overwhelm, strengthen boundaries, and turn sensitivity into a strength rather than a burden.

Shauna Switzer, MCP, MA RP
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MCP, Registered Psychotherapist
Being a highly sensitive person can mean experiencing emotions deeply, noticing subtle details in your environment, and feeling easily overwhelmed by stimulation or stress. While sensitivity is also a strength, it can sometimes feel intense or exhausting. Therapy provides a validating space to better understand sensitivity, develop grounding and boundary-setting skills, and learn how to thrive while honouring your natural temperament.

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.
