Amanda Neves Therapy + Associates
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Being highly sensitive can feel like both a gift and a challenge. Emotions, sensory input, and the feelings of others may feel overwhelming, leaving you drained or misunderstood. Our trauma-informed, somatic, and experiential approach helps you understand your sensitivity, regulate intense emotions, and embrace your depth as a strength. Using Attachment-Focused Therapy, AEDP, and IFS, we explore relational patterns, self-criticism, and stress responses, creating a safe space to cultivate self-compassion, resilience, and balance. Sessions are offered in-person in Toronto and virtually across Ontario, making support accessible wherever you are.

Jose Luis Lopez Vargas
Registered Psychotherapist, RP.
Sensitivity is welcomed as a strength. I help highly sensitive clients understand their sensory and emotional boundaries, recognize overload signals in their bodies, and develop supportive strategies to regulate stimulation. The work emphasizes self-acceptance, clear limits, and honouring your depth of perception.

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.

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.

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.

Kati Dobrei
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
As an HSP myself, I understand both the gifts and challenges that sensitivity can bring. Through my own therapeutic journey and clinical work, I've come to see sensitivity not as something to "fix," but as a strength that can be harnessed while learning to navigate the overwhelm that sometimes comes with it.

Mollie Pfendt
Counsellor/Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist
*Welcoming New Ontario-based Clients for Online Work*
I offer a grounded, compassionate space where you can slow down, feel into your experience, and reconnect with yourself.
I offer a grounded, compassionate space where you can slow down, feel into your experience, and reconnect with yourself.
You may feel the world deeply, noticing subtle shifts in mood, environment, and relationships. While this sensitivity can be a source of insight and empathy, it can also feel overwhelming in a fast-moving and demanding world.
In our work together, we’ll move at a pace that respects your nervous system. Through gentle awareness of your thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations, we’ll explore how your sensitivity shows up in your life and relationships. My approach is embodied and relational, weaving together the wisdom of your mind and body within a supportive therapeutic space.
Rather than trying to change your sensitivity, we’ll explore it together, helping you feel steady, clear, and able to embrace your attunement to the world as a strength.
If my approach resonates, I'd love for you to visit my website (molliepfendt.ca) to learn more or reach out to schedule a consultation call.
