of Salt & Sky Therapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP
At of Salt & Sky, we’ve created a practice for the messy, complicated parts of being human. The things that happened years ago but still show up today. Relationships that leave you questioning yourself. A body or illness that has changed the life you thought you’d have. The exhaustion of holding everything together, or the feeling that somewhere along the way, you lost a little of yourself.
Our therapists don’t believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. We bring different personalities, experiences, and approaches to the work, but share the same goal: to understand the person in front of us, not simply the problem that brought them through the door. Therapy here can be thoughtful and challenging, practical when you need it to be, and human enough that there’s room to laugh, too.

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.

Angie Kingma (Mindfulness for Health)
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Let’s be honest...life can be a lot. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, stuck in old patterns, or just trying to make sense of... everything, you’re in the right place.
Whatever brings you here, I truly believe that life’s ups and downs (and even those curveballs we never asked for) can offer hidden opportunities to learn, grow, and reconnect with what matters most. Together, we’ll work on restoring a sense of balance, clarity, and presence in your life, because you deserve to feel more grounded, empowered, and like yourself again.
We’ll start with a thoughtful assessment to understand what’s going on beneath the surface, and then dive into the areas that matter most to you. You’ll gain insight into how past experiences and thinking habits may be impacting your present, and learn how to shift out of stuck places. We'll also explore your values, strengths, and passions so you can start moving in a direction that actually feels good.
I bring over 25 years of experience as a therapist, and just as importantly, a down-to-earth, compassionate approach. You’ll be met with warmth, humour when it helps, and zero judgment. I know that therapy can feel vulnerable, so building a strong, genuine connection is always my top priority.
It would be a true honour and privilege to work with you. I bring humour, depth, years of experience, authenticity and heart to the therapy room..and I welcome all the parts of you. Guiding growth with curiosity, compassion, real talk & a sprinkle of science.
Curious if we’d be a good fit? I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation so we can chat and see if the vibe feels right.
And if you're looking to dive in deeper, feel free to ask me about my Therapy Intensives, an accelerated option for those ready to make meaningful shifts, fast.
