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.

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.

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.

Rachael Burnett
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), MACP
Do you often feel more deeply affected by your environment, emotions, or the energy around you than others seem to be? Moving through the world with heightened sensitivity can sometimes bring feelings of isolation, exhaustion, or shame. Please know that you are not "broken", and you are not alone. Your capacity to feel deeply is a profound part of who you are. Together, we can honor your emotional experience instead of fighting it. Together we will work to replace self-judgment with radical kindness, learning how to protect your energy and care for your nervous system. Therapy can offer a quiet, grounding space to process the weight of the world and find ways to feel more at home in your own skin. Your sensitivity is a valuable part of your human experience, and you deserve a space where it is fully understood and respected.

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.

Yasmin Rombola-Bacchus
Registered Psychotherapist, BA, Registered Psychotherapist, Dipl. Psych.
If you’re deeply affected by the world around you, you might experience emotions and sensory input more intensely than others. I help clients embrace their sensitivity as a strength, while developing practical ways to protect their energy and maintain balance. This includes learning calming techniques and cultivating inner peace to thrive in everyday life.
