Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv
By learning ways to make space for the difficult emotions, thoughts, and sensations that come with chronic pain or illness, we can learn to be more mindful compassionate towards ourselves rather than fight so much against what is the reality of this moment. With compassion and an understanding that progress has to be made at your pace, I look forward to working with you to help you pursue meaning and fulfillment amidst chronic pain and illness.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are living with chronic pain or illness, you may feel exhausted in ways that are hard to explain. The ongoing physical discomfort, medical appointments, and uncertainty can impact your mood, relationships, identity, and sense of control. You may grieve the version of life you once had as you adapt to new limitations.
At Selah Counselling, we recognize that chronic pain and illness affect both body and mind. We provide a compassionate space where you can process frustration, grief, fear, and fatigue without feeling dismissed. Our work includes support for the nervous system, coping strategies for flare-ups, pacing skills, and help rebuilding a sense of agency in your current reality. The goal is not to deny the hardship, but to strengthen resilience, increase emotional steadiness, and help you live with greater clarity and hope even within ongoing physical challenges.

Lori Schledewitz
Counsellor/Therapist, MACP, RP
What I am going to share may sound impossible to believe. But learning to compassionately hold or accept the chronic pain or illness you are living with, while developing skills to remove barriers of 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 let go of 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, worry 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.
