Dr. Matthew Clyde
Psychologist, PhD
Being a Highly Sensitive Person means your nervous system is finely tuned to the world around you. While this can lead to deep empathy and creativity, it also means you might easily feel overstimulated by loud noises, bright lights, or the emotional energy of others. We focus on framing your sensitivity as a strength while developing "energy management" techniques to prevent burnout and help you navigate a world that can often feel "too loud."

Rebecca Bonham
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Canadian Certified Counsellor, MPS, MTS
Many of us learned that our sensitivity was a problem, a pain, or something that made us "too much," "too needy," or "too intense." At the same time, we also learned that others with high needs were happy to use us as a sponge for their pain, big feelings, and needs, resulting in overwhelm, loss of self, and burnout for these naturally empathic souls. Together we can explore the ways your sensitivity and empathy have impacted your relationships and your identity. We'll work together to help you heal your attachment wounds, practice healthy boundaries, and practice self-compassion and self care so that you can better access the incredible gifts of your sensitive nature - your wisdom and insight, a healthier expression of empathy, and deep wells of creativity!

Online in Gatineau, QC (Online Only)
Gatineau sits directly across the Ottawa River from Canada's capital and functions as the Quebec side of the Ottawa-Gatineau National Capital Region, with a predominantly French-speaking population of federal government workers who access many services in both official languages. The city's identity is distinct from Ottawa — more working-class and francophone in character — and French-language therapy is the norm, with access to English-speaking practitioners limited relative to the Ontario side of the river. CISSS de l'Outaouais provides public mental health resources, and many Gatineau residents access the broader Ottawa-Gatineau therapy ecosystem via the bridges connecting both cities. Therapists here frequently encounter the stresses of public service careers, bilingual professional demands, and the particular challenges of raising families in a bicultural, bilingual metro area.
