The Art of Rest
Life Coach, M.S. Psychology
The Art of Rest is constructed with the neural pathways of attention and focus in mind. We are highly successful with folks who identify as Highly Sensitive Persons because we tailor the unique nervous system capacity to the individual rather than a one-size-fits-all model. During our time together, HSP's tend to find they have a more robust capacity to enjoy the peaks and valleys of a full life.

Daniel Keith McMath
Counsellor/Therapist, | Coach | PCC, MPCC
Being highly sensitive isn't a flaw. It's often the experience of noticing more, feeling more, and carrying more than the people around you realize. Many highly sensitive people spend years believing they need to become less sensitive, when what they truly need is a better understanding of themselves. Together we'll help you work with your sensitivity rather than against it, building boundaries, confidence, and a way of living that honors how you're naturally wired.

Rakan Himadeh
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, ISP Candidate
Being a Highly Sensitive Person doesn’t mean something is “wrong”; it means your nervous system processes the world more deeply and intensely. Somatic Experiencing (SE) and Integral Somatic Psychology (ISP) support HSPs by helping regulate the activation that comes with overstimulation, strong emotions, and subtle shifts in the environment. SE brings more stability to the body by working with activation, overwhelm, and the tendency to freeze or shut down when things feel too much. ISP adds emotional capacity, helping you stay present with feelings and sensations without becoming flooded. Together, these approaches create more resilience, clearer boundaries, and a grounded sense of self, allowing sensitivity to become a strength rather than a source of exhaustion.

Dave Vass
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor: RCC
People are wired different. And for some their more finely tuned systems can lead to a more intense way of relating to their environment...and this can be exhuasting! Incorporating a neuro-science backed, collaborative approach to well-being, you will come away from sessions with a clearer understanding of how you can utilize your unique wiring in a way that leads to more satisfaction, fulfillment, and freedom.

Infinite Horizons Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MCP, CCS, RP
Being highly sensitive can mean feeling emotions deeply and becoming easily overwhelmed by your environment. While this can be a strength, it can also feel exhausting at times. We help you understand your sensitivity and develop tools to manage overstimulation. Therapy supports you in embracing this trait while protecting your energy.

The Okanagan is British Columbia's lake-and-vineyard interior region, anchored by Kelowna and including Vernon, Penticton, and a string of lakeside communities that mix agriculture, wine tourism, and tech growth in one of Canada's most popular retirement destinations. The region's mental health picture includes seasonal tourism economy stress, wildfire and smoke-season anxiety after repeated severe fire years, and the isolation some newcomers and retirees feel after relocating. Therapy access centres on Kelowna's growing practitioner community, with Interior Health providing public services and telehealth extending reach across the valley's smaller communities.
