Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RCSW, T.S., RPT, CPT
Highly Sensitive Persons have very unique experiences. No 2 HSPs are alike either. There are patterns that can be seen across people who are very sensitive. Depending on a person's sensitivity and environment, there are various strategies that can support them living their best lives in such a demanding world.

Dr. Matthew Clyde
Psychologist, PhD
Being a Highly Sensitive Person means your nervous system is finely tuned to the world around you. While this can lead to deep empathy and creativity, it also means you might easily feel overstimulated by loud noises, bright lights, or the emotional energy of others. We focus on framing your sensitivity as a strength while developing "energy management" techniques to prevent burnout and help you navigate a world that can often feel "too loud."

Birgit Schreiber Dr
Psychologist, PhD and MA in Psychology
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!

Rachelle Tersigni
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
I work with highly sensitive individuals who feel easily overwhelmed or emotionally impacted by their environment. Therapy focuses on nervous-system regulation, self-acceptance, and using sensitivity as a resource rather than a burden.

Hannah Bickle | Self, Relationships, Emotions
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Q)
As a highly sensitive person, you may experience emotions deeply and be especially attuned to the needs, moods, and expectations of those around you. While this awareness can be a gift, it can also make it difficult to separate your own feelings from those of others, leaving you feeling overwhelmed, drained, or unsure of what you need.
In therapy, we can explore how your sensitivity shapes your experiences and relationships, helping you build a stronger connection to your own needs, emotions, and intuition.

Dartmouth sits across the harbour from Halifax, a proudly distinct community of lakes and working-class neighbourhoods now part of the regional municipality, with naval families and a growing young-professional presence. Mental health needs include military family stress, economic transition in older neighbourhoods, and Atlantic Canada's long-winter seasonal weight. Nova Scotia Health and Dartmouth General anchor public care, with Halifax's provider community across the bridges.
