Rosemary Laurel
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RCC
It's like living in a whole different reality from other people, being a highly sensitive person. Often highly sensitive people are also very intuitive and empathic. This can be amazing, but you might also feel like your energy isn't your own and you are absorbing other people's stuff.
I bridge the worlds of energy and neurodivergence. I identify as AuDHD and HSP, and also a starseed and lightworker. These paradigms don't have to be separate.

Barbara (Barchi) Fojkar
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor, Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCC
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.

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.

Clayre Sessoms
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.

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.

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.

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.

Abby Tait
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
If you’re highly sensitive, you likely notice more, feel more deeply, and take in the world in a way others don’t always understand. When it’s supported, this trait can bring intuition, empathy, and creativity. When it’s not, it can lead to stress, burnout, and a sense of being misunderstood. I work with adults who want to stop seeing their sensitivity as something to manage or hide, and start relating to it with more understanding and care. Using attachment and psychodynamic-informed approaches alongside Compassion-Focused Therapy, ACT, and DBT, we’ll work on setting boundaries, regulating overwhelm, and creating a life that honours how you’re wired.
