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.

True Health Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Tracey Nguyen, Holistic Advanced Nurse Psychotherapist RN, MN
I specialize in supporting highly sensitive people to embrace their unique gifts while healing the overwhelm that often comes with heightened sensitivity. My approach explores root causes like internalized abuse, broken boundaries, or an overactivated nervous system from unsafe early environments, which can amplify feelings of overstimulation or hypervigilance. Together, we work on downregulating the nervous system, addressing enmeshment trauma, and building stronger boundaries. I also honour the spiritual purpose of sensitivity-its ability to deepen emotional awareness, somatic experiences, and spiritual growth. By aligning with a soul-centred lifestyle, I help highly sensitive individuals transform their vulnerabilities into strengths, finding balance and purpose in their sensitivity.

Tamara Daniszewski
Registered Social Worker, M.ED, MSW, RSW
Highly sensitive people feel deeply, notice subtleties others miss and can become easily overwhelmed by noise, conflict or criticism. In therapy, we help you understand your sensitivity as a strength rather than a flaw, while building coping tools to protect your energy and nervous system. You can be sensitive and strong at the same time.

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.
