Sasha Golvin
Counsellor/Therapist, Psychotherapist/Drama Therapist, MA, CCC,CRPO (qualifying)
Often overwhelmed by the needs of others? Maybe you find yourself stuck in your own emotions and thoughts. Never able to really live in the here and now. Through expressive art therapy many of these stuck thoughts or feelings can be expressed and worked through. People pleasing tendencies are something I am also very comfterable exploring in sessions.

Abby Tait
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
If you’re highly sensitive, you likely notice more, feel more deeply, and take in the world in a way others don’t always understand. When it’s supported, this trait can bring intuition, empathy, and creativity. When it’s not, it can lead to stress, burnout, and a sense of being misunderstood. I work with adults who want to stop seeing their sensitivity as something to manage or hide, and start relating to it with more understanding and care. Using attachment and psychodynamic-informed approaches alongside Compassion-Focused Therapy, ACT, and DBT, we’ll work on setting boundaries, regulating overwhelm, and creating a life that honours how you’re wired.

Sunlight Counselling, Melody Mann
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Being a highly sensitive person can be both a gift and a challenge. You might feel deeply affected by your surroundings, easily overwhelmed by noise or conflict, and quick to notice the emotions of others. While your sensitivity allows for empathy, creativity, and depth, it can also lead to exhaustion or self-criticism in a world that often feels too loud. In therapy, we’ll explore how to understand and honour your sensitivity as a strength, develop tools for emotional regulation and boundaries, and create space for rest and self-acceptance. Together, we’ll help your sensitivity feel like something to embrace, not something to manage.

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel easily overwhelmed, deeply affected by your environment, or emotionally impacted by situations others seem to brush off? Many highly sensitive people grow up learning to downplay their reactions or push through overstimulation because they’re told they’re “too much”, “too sensitive”, or need to toughen up. Over time, this can lead to exhaustion, self-doubt, or disconnection from your needs.
Sensitivity is not a flaw—it’s a trait rooted in depth of processing, awareness, and empathy. What matters is how you care for yourself when stimulation and emotions arise. Together, we can explore how your sensitivity shows up, understand what your nervous system needs, and develop ways to live that honour your depth rather than drain it—so you can feel more regulated, confident, and lighter in your day-to-day life. You experience the world deeply for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.
