Jennifer Fukushima
Registered Psychotherapist, registered psychotherapist
Many people living with chronic pain have had invalidating experiences with loved ones and in the medical system. Getting in touch with the body through somatic therapy can be a gateway to unlocking the source of chronic pain. Through gentle somatic resourcing and mindfulness techniques, I hope to support you in changing your relationship to your body.

Cayla Townes, Memento Psychotherapy & Counselling
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CCC
Adjusting to new limitations can be difficult. A change in health, whether sudden or gradual, can be disorienting and frustrating. There can be so much grief tied up in changes to our health. No longer having the ability to do the activities we enjoy and having to change our plans for the future are just two of the many ways grief can impact our ability to adjust to chronic pain or illness. I work with people who are experiencing chronic pain, disability, or illness and the caregivers who support them to continue to live meaningful, connected lives.

Lori Schledewitz
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, RP
What I am going to share may sound impossible to believe. But learning how to compassionately hold or accept the chronic pain or illness you are living with while developing skills to remove barriers for fear in your mind can give you the freedom to live the life you want. How? Working together as a team, we will mindfully explore and develop skills to drop the internal battle with the fear of pain and suffering. Letting go of the fight against ourselves changes how we think about pain and suffering; it decreases the mental focus on pain, worrying and stress, releasing you from perpetuating the cycle of pain.
Perpetual Cycle of Pain = Connecting and focusing on pain and suffering leads to avoiding experiences that may create more pain and suffering. As lived experiences and social interactions get smaller because of avoidance, we become disconnected, lonely and isolated - creating additional pain and suffering.
Let's work together to empower you to drop the struggle, learn to work with yourself, and find freedom and fulfillment.

Shannon Wylie
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
I am currently accepting new clients. No waitlist! Evening sessions available for in-person or online sessions.
Having worked as a Registered Social Worker for over 12 years, I have established an approach to working with clients that leaves them feeling heard and supported. Together we create a space where you can safely and effectively work towards your wellness goals and make positive changes in your life. This may involve talking things through, processing and making sense of difficult experiences, addressing unhelpful thought or behaviour patterns, or establishing more effective coping mechanisms. Every client's journey is unique. My role is to support you in this process by being a neutral, non-judgemental resource.
Having worked in multiple hospital settings with patients struggling with chronic medical conditions, I am equipped to support you through the many ways chronic illness impacts you and your life as a whole. Together we can build coping strategies, process the impact your health condition has on your life, your relationships and your stress levels and find ways to improve your overall mood and wellness as you work towards making the most of your situation.
Please feel free to explore my website for more information or to book a free 20 minute consultation.
I would love to hear from you!
