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.

Meaningfully Connected Counselling and Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP or RP (Qualifying)
At Meaningfully Connected Counselling, meaningful connection is at the heart of everything we do. We are a team of compassionate therapists who support individuals feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or as though they are nearing a breaking point. Our goal is to help you better understand your inner world and develop a greater sense of clarity, balance, and agency so you can begin to feel that you have real options again.
We believe healing begins when every part of you is welcomed with compassion — even the parts that feel anxious, guarded, ashamed, angry, uncertain, or hard to understand. Rather than pushing those parts away, we work alongside you to gently explore them with curiosity and care, helping you develop a deeper and more integrated relationship with yourself.
Our approach is grounded in authentic human connection, compassion, and evidence-based therapeutic approaches. We believe lasting healing happens within safe and supportive relationships where you feel seen, heard, and understood. Our therapists draw from a range of modern and effective modalities while remaining deeply attuned to your unique story, pace, and needs.
For clients who desire it, we also thoughtfully integrate faith and spirituality into the therapeutic process. We honour the role that faith, meaning, and connection to something greater can play in healing, growth, and restoration.
Through the meaningful connection you build with your therapist, you can develop a deeper understanding of your thoughts, emotions, body, relationships, and the many parts that make you who you are. This deeper self-connection can help you show up more fully — for yourself, for others, and for the life you want to create.

Kate Paul
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Hi, I’m Kate. I help individuals and couples navigate trauma, relational pain, and emotional overwhelm. Together, we’ll explore the roots of your challenges, to help you feel more grounded and empowered.
Past hurts can echo into the present: quick triggers, shutdowns, or the same fight on repeat. Trauma, whether from earlier life experiences or broken trust in relationships, can leave you feeling unsafe in your body and disconnected from the people who matter most.
My approach is compassionate, and collaborative. We will work at a pace that feels manageable, so you can restore trust in yourself and in your relationships.
