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.

RAISE Counselling and Therapy
Counsellor/Therapist, MCouns, BComm, GradCertDevTrauma, DipCommWelf, DipCommServ
Jo works with highly sensitive individuals who experience emotions, sensory input and relational dynamics deeply. She recognises that being highly sensitive can be both a strength and a challenge, often accompanied by overwhelm, anxiety, people-pleasing or burnout. Using emotionally focused and evidence-informed approaches, Jo helps clients understand their nervous system, set healthy boundaries and develop self-compassion. Therapy focuses on embracing sensitivity as a strength while building practical strategies for regulation, confidence and balance.

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Due to my background in nursing and mental health, I have a good understanding of high sensitivity issues and how they impact the person including the potential impacts for those around them. I am able to utilise a psycho-educational approach to help you understand your inner emotions better and learn practical strategies to support increased emotional regulation skills and build resilience for coping, along with specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the often underlying trauma without the need to discuss the details of the trauma that can often be a cause of high sensitivity. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self.
My aim is to assist you with your high sensitivity difficulties to restore balance, happiness and inner peace (using the various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods) along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.
