Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Being a highly sensitive person often means experiencing the world—and emotions—more intensely, which can show up as overwhelm, tension, or sensory overload. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy engage both body and mind, helping highly sensitive individuals process emotions safely, regulate their nervous system, and cultivate resilience, grounding, and a deeper sense of self-understanding.

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.

Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
Being highly sensitive is not a flaw, weakness, or something you simply need to “toughen up.” For many people, sensitivity can mean experiencing emotions, relationships, environments, and stress more deeply — which can be both meaningful and exhausting.
High sensitivity can also overlap with trauma, neurodivergence, anxiety, sensory overwhelm, or years of feeling misunderstood, dismissed, or “too much.”
My approach is about helping you better understand your sensitivity, reduce shame, strengthen boundaries, and work with your nervous system rather than constantly against it. Together, we focus on building a life where your sensitivity can feel more like insight and strength — not just overwhelm.

Justin Mulder
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A., Registered Psychotherapist
Highly sensitive people should not be made to feel alone in this world. I approach our work together from a neurodiversity-affirming perspective. Rather than viewing it as something that needs to be “fixed,” I see it as a deeper way of thinking, processing, and engaging with the world. In our work together, we will look at how it shows up in your daily life trough things like self-criticism, emotional intensity, focus, motivation, and overwhelm. If you’ve spent a long time feeling like you’re the problem, therapy might be a place where that finally starts to change.

Paighe Rojas
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
If you feel everything deeply, get overwhelmed easily, or need more downtime than others, you may not be “too much”—you may be highly sensitive. Therapy can help you regulate stimulation, set boundaries, and stop internalizing other people’s energy. You can build a life that fits your nervous system instead of constantly pushing past it.
