Sudeva Hawkes
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor, B.Couns., MNCPS Accred. , PACFA Reg.
Highly sensitive individuals often react intensely to internal and external stimuli, much like those who’ve experienced complex trauma. That is, for example, with increased emotional sensitivity and stronger reactivity to both internal and external stimuli—pain, hunger, light, and noise. I’ve found that trauma-informed therapies, along with mindfulness and clinical expertise, are particularly effective in supporting highly sensitive people. My goal is to help you thrive authentically, rather than conform to conventional expectations.

Counsellor/Therapist, ACA Registered, PC Grad MHN & Neuro, MBA
You may experience emotions, situations or the people around you more intensely, sometimes leaving you feeling overwhelmed, drained or caught in your own thoughts. Rather than seeing sensitivity as something you need to change, together we can understand how it affects you, develop practical ways to manage overwhelm and build greater clarity, confidence and emotional balance.

Brett Hall - Therapy for Deep Change
Registered Psychotherapist, Bsc - PSYCH/Neuro, Grad. Dip Gestalt Therapy
Being a Highly Sensitive Person in a world that isn't built for sensitivity can leave you feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, or like something's wrong with you for feeling things so deeply. If that resonates, let's work together to help you embrace your sensitivity as a strength rather than a struggle.
The first step in working with high sensitivity is understanding that there is nothing wrong with you — your nervous system simply processes the world more deeply, and that comes with real gifts alongside real challenges. In a supportive, non-judgmental space, we'll explore how to protect your energy, set boundaries, and honor your needs without apology. My approach centers self-compassion and practical tools for thriving as a sensitive person in an often overstimulating world.
You don't have to feel "too much" alone. Let's take the first step toward a life that honors who you are.

Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Being a highly sensitive person is often experienced as a liability rather than a trait, especially in fast-paced professional environments that reward toughness over attunement. I help clients understand their sensitivity as genuine capacity rather than flaw, and build boundaries and regulation strategies that let them use it well instead of being overwhelmed by it.
