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.

Being highly sensitive means you feel the world deeply — which can be both a gift and a challenge. In our work together, we’ll explore how your sensitivity shapes your relationships, emotions, and experiences, and develop tools to navigate overwhelm while honoring your unique way of being. You’ll learn to embrace your depth, set healthy boundaries, and reconnect with yourself in a grounded, compassionate way.

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.

Thunder Bay is a northwestern Ontario city that functions as the primary urban centre and service hub for a vast region of the Canadian Shield, and it has one of the highest urban Indigenous populations of any Canadian city—both permanent residents and individuals who travel hundreds of miles from remote reserves to access healthcare, education, and services. The city has faced significant challenges with Indigenous youth mental health and suicide, violence, and the mental health impacts of colonization and intergenerational trauma from residential schools, and these concerns are central to the local mental health landscape. Lakehead University's Indigenous studies programs contribute to a growing body of decolonized mental health approaches, and regional services work to address significant unmet need. Common therapy concerns include Indigenous trauma and intergenerational residential school effects, geographic isolation, substance use, depression, and the complex grief of a community navigating both the legacy of colonial harm and ongoing racism and marginalization.
