Emma Dean
Therapist, MA Hons, DipCaH, PNLP
As a Highly Sensitive Person myself, I understand the challenges of feeling deeply, I support highly sensitive people (HSPs) to feel safe, grounded, and empowered in their lives. Being highly sensitive can feel overwhelming at times — emotions, energy, and experiences are felt deeply, and the world can often feel too intense. Through a blend of integrative therapy, hypnotherapy, breathwork, and mindful practices, I help you manage overwhelm, strengthen your resilience, and connect with your unique gifts. Together, we create tools and practices that allow you to thrive, rather than just survive, in a highly stimulating world.

Adima Hawkes
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychotherapist, Spiritual Teacher, Gene Keys Guide, Trainer Tibetan Acupressure & Iridology
I know about highly sensitive, because I am diagnosed it. The world and other people in it have often looked overwhelming and "too much" for me. This can lead to isolation.
The challenge is to differentiate between physical symptoms and reactions and emotional and psychological reactions. Sometimes certain measure or changes in the environment can help. The challenge is not to (blindly) escape or react with self judgement or repress. I found out that the more I open up to vulnerability, the more stable and confident I feel. I'd love to support you in accepting and fully embracing your sensitivities and learning to regulate yourself with them.

Anjali P.
Registered Psychotherapist, MA in Person-Centred Experiential Counselling, Registered Member MBACP- 408062
Being highly sensitive can bring strengths such as empathy, depth, creativity, and emotional awareness, but it can also make it easier to feel overwhelmed by stress, conflict, criticism, or overstimulation. Therapy can help you better understand your sensitivity, develop healthier boundaries, manage overwhelm more effectively, and build a relationship with your sensitivity that feels empowering rather than burdensome.

Marianna Trezza -The Growing mindset
Counsellor/Therapist, MA (Hons), Adv Dip. Counsel. & Psychoth.,Dip. Hypnoth., X-Cultural Adaptation Coun. Reg. BACP 572613
Many highly sensitive women living abroad spend years feeling “too much” for the environments around them.
Too emotional.
Too intense.
Too affected by other people, places or atmospheres.
Over time, many learn to monitor themselves carefully in order to adapt, belong and avoid judgement.
For women living between cultures and languages, this sensitivity can become even more complex. Constant adaptation, emotional self-monitoring and feeling different from those around them can leave the nervous system emotionally exhausted and overstimulated.
Yet sensitivity is not a weakness.
Often it is a deep capacity for perception, empathy, intuition and emotional awareness that simply has not been supported with enough safety, grounding or space to breathe.
My work offers a warm, reflective and nervous-system-informed space where highly sensitive women can begin reconnecting with their own rhythm, boundaries, authenticity and emotional wellbeing without constantly feeling the need to harden, perform or over-adapt.
I integrate psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, EFT, embodiment, lifestyle medicine, reflective dialogue and nature-based approaches to support women in relating to their sensitivity with greater self-understanding, regulation and self-trust.

Portsmouth is one of the United Kingdom's great naval cities — home to HMNB Portsmouth, the Royal Navy's primary surface fleet base, and the historic dockyard where HMS Victory is berthed — and its therapy community is substantially shaped by the needs of Royal Navy personnel, veterans, and military families navigating deployment stress, trauma, and the emotional challenges of service life. The city is densely populated and has experienced significant post-industrial economic challenges, with therapists frequently addressing economic stress, housing precarity, and the mental health effects of communities carrying long-term deprivation. Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust provides public mental health services alongside a private therapy community concentrated in Southsea and the residential suburbs north of the city center. The University of Portsmouth's psychology programs supply clinical training to the local community.
