Clayre Sessoms
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC, ATR-BC
Moving through a highly stimulating world with a porous nervous system is amplified exponentially when you are also navigating marginalised identities. As an online therapist in BC who works with heightened sensory and energetic attunement, I offer specialized support for sensitive individuals who are tired of trying to desensitize themselves to survive. Our relational work focuses on honouring your deep capacity for feeling, reframing your sensitivity as a vital form of embodied knowing, and protecting your energetic boundaries.

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.

Havenwood Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Being highly sensitive can mean experiencing emotions, environments, relationships, and sensory experiences deeply. What others may dismiss as “overreacting” can feel very real and intense. Therapy can help you understand your sensitivity as part of your experience rather than something you need to be ashamed of or eliminate.
Taylor works with clients who feel deeply, think deeply, and may have spent years questioning whether they're “too much.” Her approach helps you understand emotional patterns, quiet self-criticism, build confidence, and develop ways of navigating relationships and life that honour who you are.

If you identify as a highly sensitive person, you may feel easily overstimulated, emotionally affected, or misunderstood. I help HSPs embrace their sensitivity as a strength, build tools for nervous system care, and thrive in alignment with their unique needs.

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
The work is to help understand and embrace deep emotional and sensory responsiveness as a trait, not a flaw. Building emotional regulation, healthy boundaries and strategies to prevent overwhelm, without shutting down sensitivity is critical.
