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.

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.

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
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.

Andrea Town
Occupational Therapist, MScOT, OT Reg. (Ont.), Psychotherapist
Being a highly sensitive person is a gift and, at times, a challenge. Deep feeling, nuanced perception, and attunement to the world around you can lead to meaningful connection, but also to overwhelm, overstimulation, and self criticism. In Whitby, Ajax, Pickering, and across Durham Region, I offer psychotherapy for adults who identify as highly sensitive. As a highly sensitive person myself, I understand this terrain. Drawing from Gestalt, mindfulness, compassion focused, and relational approaches, we honour your sensitivity as a strength while building tools to regulate, set boundaries, and rest.
