We offer therapy for Highly Sensitive Persons in Guelph and secure online therapy across Ontario.

Amy Moroz
Psychologist, M.Ed.C.Psych. Clinical & Counselling Psychologist
I work well with highly sensitive individuals who often feel overwhelmed by emotion, overstimulated by their environment, or burdened by others' needs. Together, we slow things down and create a space where sensitivity is not a flaw, but a strength. Using emotion-focused, somatic, and mindfulness-based strategies, we explore protective patterns like people-pleasing or emotional suppression, and begin to reconnect with your inner clarity, boundaries, and self-worth.

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.

Shauna Switzer, MCP, MA RP
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, MCP, Registered Psychotherapist
Being a highly sensitive person can mean experiencing emotions deeply, noticing subtle details in your environment, and feeling easily overwhelmed by stimulation or stress. While sensitivity is also a strength, it can sometimes feel intense or exhausting. Therapy provides a validating space to better understand sensitivity, develop grounding and boundary-setting skills, and learn how to thrive while honouring your natural temperament.

Bhavna Lalwani
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Counselling, RP
Being highly sensitive can be both a gift and a challenge. You may notice subtleties in your environment, feel emotions deeply, or become easily overwhelmed by stimuli, relationships, or stress. While these traits can foster empathy, creativity, and intuition, they can also lead to exhaustion, anxiety, or self-doubt if not well-managed.
In therapy, I help highly sensitive individuals understand and honor their unique traits, develop strategies for emotional regulation, set healthy boundaries, and cultivate resilience. Together, we focus on embracing sensitivity as a strength rather than a limitation.

Guelph is an Ontario university city home to the University of Guelph, particularly renowned for its veterinary college, agricultural programs, and biological sciences, and the mental health landscape here reflects both the distinctive stresses of veterinary and agricultural education—which carry some of the highest burnout and mental health burden of any professional training—and the broader needs of a growing, diverse university community. The city is part of Ontario's southwestern technology and manufacturing corridor, and a growing innovation economy has added a professional tech class alongside the traditional university community. Guelph General Hospital and the Homewood Health Centre—a nationally known mental health and addiction treatment facility based in Guelph—anchor local services, and a private therapy sector serves the wider community. Common therapy concerns include veterinary and agricultural training burnout, student mental health, anxiety, life transitions in a rapidly growing city, and the particular stresses of professional programs with high academic and emotional demands.
