Jenny Kapichen
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Drawing from my personal experience as an artist, business owner, immigrant, and parent, I bring warmth, insight, and deep understanding to my work as a therapist. My approach is compassionate, attentive, and rooted in the belief that healing happens through connection and self-discovery. I embrace an anti-oppressive and intersectional perspective, recognizing the profound impact of systemic and cultural factors on mental health. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered on your path toward growth and healing.

Pre-Licensed Professional, MACP Candidate, Yorkville University
I know reaching out for therapy can feel uncomfortable, especially if you’re used to carrying things on your own or trying to push through everything yourself. You might not even fully know how to explain what’s wrong yet, only that something feels heavy, overwhelming, or difficult to manage alone.
My approach is warm, calm, and non-judgmental. I want therapy to feel like a space where you can speak openly, slow things down, and feel genuinely heard without pressure to have everything figured out right away. Whether you’re dealing with stress, anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, or feeling stuck in ways that are leaving you emotionally drained, I aim to work alongside you at a pace that feels comfortable and meaningful for you.

Mariya Garnet
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist ( Qualifying)
When everything looks right but something still feels off, somatic, trauma-focused therapy is where the work begins.
You already recognize the pattern. Understanding it hasn't closed the gap between knowing and feeling, because the real shift happens in the body, not the story.
Maybe you've done therapy already, and you still don't have what you came for: the ability to make a decision without arguing with yourself, to feel present in your own life, to sleep without your mind still running.
What this supports, over time, is a slow and gentle return to aliveness.

Mindful Connections Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
Life's challenges can feel overwhelming and isolating, and when you're stuck in the same patterns, it's hard to see a way forward. This is a space where that changes. Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship struggles, emotional overwhelm, or simply feeling lost, you'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space here to slow down, make sense of what's happening, and begin moving toward something better. The goal isn't just to cope, it's to genuinely understand yourself, replace what's holding you back with habits that actually nourish you, and reconnect with what brings you peace and fulfillment.
Our approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental, drawing on evidence-based therapies that target both symptom relief and deeper lasting change. We specialize in working with trauma, brain injuries, and ADHD, and have built my practice around helping clients in these areas feel truly understood. Together we'll work not just toward insight, but toward real, meaningful change, so you leave sessions feeling more grounded, more connected to yourself, and more equipped to navigate your life and relationships.

Lori Schledewitz
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RP
“You’re too emotional.”
“You’re too sensitive.”
“You care too much.”
“You’re too hard on yourself.”
Do these judgments sound familiar?
If so, you’re not alone.
I’m passionate about working with individuals who experience the world deeply and whose sensitivity, intuition, and awareness are an important part of who they are. Being highly sensitive can be a strength, but it can also feel overwhelming when emotions, stress, or difficult experiences become hard to manage.
Many of my clients feel stuck despite their best efforts to cope. They may be navigating anxiety, self-doubt, grief and loss, or lingering effects of traumatic experiences, while relying on coping strategies that no longer seem to be working.
My goal is to provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space where we can make sense of what you’re experiencing and explore what may be keeping you stuck. Together, we’ll develop greater flexibility in responding to difficult thoughts and emotions, strengthen your connection with yourself, and build practical skills to navigate life’s emotional challenges.
You don’t need to become less sensitive or change who you are. Therapy can help you better understand and work with the way you experience the world—so you can move toward a life that feels meaningful, authentic, and truly your own.
