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.

Sudeva Hawkes
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor, B.Couns., MNCPS Accred. , PACFA Reg.
Highly sensitive individuals often react intensely to internal and external stimuli, much like those who’ve experienced complex trauma. That is, for example, with increased emotional sensitivity and stronger reactivity to both internal and external stimuli—pain, hunger, light, and noise. I’ve found that trauma-informed therapies, along with mindfulness and clinical expertise, are particularly effective in supporting highly sensitive people. My goal is to help you thrive authentically, rather than conform to conventional expectations.

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.

Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Being a highly sensitive person is often experienced as a liability rather than a trait, especially in fast-paced professional environments that reward toughness over attunement. I help clients understand their sensitivity as genuine capacity rather than flaw, and build boundaries and regulation strategies that let them use it well instead of being overwhelmed by it.

Self-care is critical for HSP, and there are other aspects of improving the condition so that the person can lead a more fulfilling life, more robust and resilient. We also take care that being hyper sensitive is a huge gift!

Southend-on-Sea is a large coastal town in Essex on the Thames Estuary, where mental health demand reflects a mix of seaside resort identity and significant areas of socioeconomic deprivation, with some inner-town neighbourhoods ranking among the most deprived in the East of England. NHS Talking Therapies services are available through the local trust, though wait times can be long, and a private therapy sector serves those who can access it. The town draws both long-term residents and London commuters, and the pressures of local employment challenges alongside the demands of commuter life shape the kinds of concerns people bring to therapy. Private practitioners are also available in neighbouring Leigh-on-Sea and Westcliff-on-Sea for those seeking faster access.
