Hannah Bickle | Self, Relationships, Emotions
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Q)
As a highly sensitive person, you may experience emotions deeply and be especially attuned to the needs, moods, and expectations of those around you. While this awareness can be a gift, it can also make it difficult to separate your own feelings from those of others, leaving you feeling overwhelmed, drained, or unsure of what you need.
In therapy, we can explore how your sensitivity shapes your experiences and relationships, helping you build a stronger connection to your own needs, emotions, and intuition.

Rachael Burnett
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), MACP
Do you often feel more deeply affected by your environment, emotions, or the energy around you than others seem to be? Moving through the world with heightened sensitivity can sometimes bring feelings of isolation, exhaustion, or shame. Please know that you are not "broken", and you are not alone. Your capacity to feel deeply is a profound part of who you are. Together, we can honor your emotional experience instead of fighting it. Together we will work to replace self-judgment with radical kindness, learning how to protect your energy and care for your nervous system. Therapy can offer a quiet, grounding space to process the weight of the world and find ways to feel more at home in your own skin. Your sensitivity is a valuable part of your human experience, and you deserve a space where it is fully understood and respected.

Somatic Healing Arts, Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Being a highly sensitive person often means experiencing the world—and emotions—more intensely, which can show up as overwhelm, tension, or sensory overload. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy engage both body and mind, helping highly sensitive individuals process emotions safely, regulate their nervous system, and cultivate resilience, grounding, and a deeper sense of self-understanding.
