Trickett Psychotherapy & Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapists , Counsellors
Being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) means your nervous system processes emotions, experiences, and your surroundings more deeply than most people. While sensitivity can be a strength, it can also lead to feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, anxious, or affected by stress, conflict, or sensory overload. At Trickett Psychotherapy & Counselling, we help adults better understand and embrace their sensitivity while developing practical strategies for emotional regulation, healthy boundaries, resilience, and self-confidence. We offer therapy for Highly Sensitive Persons in Guelph and secure online therapy across Ontario. Contact us today to book your consultation and learn how to turn your sensitivity into a source of strength.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
From one highly sensitive person to another, it can be a crazy world out there. Two things that I've found helpful:
1st, resiliency training: Although our bodies can react to things that other people might brush off, Somatic Experiencing can help build up our ability to settle our stress and activation levels. That party might still be uncomfortably loud, but it's more tolerable when you have confidence that you can quickly find comfort again once you leave.
2nd: Boundary training and asking for what you want: As we get better at knowing what would help us feel more comfortable, and better at asking for it, we can start to re-shape our environment to feel better. Then as we feel better, and as our loved ones know how to help us, we are more resourceful, more able to connect with others, and more able to be the people we want to be in the world.

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.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you identify as a highly sensitive person, you may notice that you feel things deeply. You might pick up on subtle shifts in tone, atmosphere, or emotion that others seem to miss. While this sensitivity can be a strength, it can also feel overwhelming. You may become easily overstimulated, need more recovery time after social interactions, or struggle with boundaries because you are so attuned to others.
At Selah Counselling, we view high sensitivity as a trait, not a flaw. Your nervous system is wired to process information more deeply. Together, we work to understand how your sensitivity operates, strengthen regulation skills, and build clear boundaries that protect your energy. Our goal is to help you embrace your empathy and insight without becoming emotionally depleted. With practical tools and increased self-awareness, you can learn to honour your sensitivity while living with greater steadiness and confidence.

Vanessa Fingland
Counsellor/Therapist, CCPCPR.cand, RPC-C
As a highly sensitive person, you may feel emotions deeply, become easily overwhelmed by stress or conflict, and spend a great deal of time overthinking or worrying about others. Together, we'll help you better understand your sensitivity, develop healthy boundaries, manage emotional overwhelm, and embrace your strengths without feeling like you have to change who you are. My goal is to help you feel more confident, balanced, and empowered so your sensitivity becomes a source of resilience rather than exhaustion.
