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.

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!
