My family has been working with Dr. Smith for over three years. His approach, expertise and compassion have helped my family uncover the tools we each needed to be our best selves. He is skilled at empowering each individual to harness their own inner strengths in order to live our best lives.

Dr. Doug Smith has been our psychologist for our family since November 2018. He has been specifically working with my son, who is a National Champion in his sport. We started going to see Dr. Smith as my son was having trouble with International competitions. Just recently he won his first International competition at his level. He has also had recent further success this past weekend at two additional International competitions. Dr. Doug Smith is working with my son's whole team to develop strategies that work for my son and we cannot say enough about his dedication and professional help with how far my son has come in such a short period of time. There is still continued work to be done but with his help we know that goals can be achieved. Our family is so much better off with his help.

Dr. Doug Smith has been my psychologist and our families psychologist since 1997. He has been of great assistance in helping my now deceased wife through a lifetime battle against Multiple Sclerosis. He has also helped me through many years of very serious depression and has coached me through a major fight against inactivity and serious obesity. He was invaluable in helping my two sons deal with problems associated with coping with their dad's depression and their mom's MS. Dr. Doug Smith was our anchor. He saw us through many very difficult tims and did so with strength, compassion and thoughtful direction. He is an excellent Registered Clinical Psychologist. If you need help Dr. Doug Smith will be there for you and will help you through difficult times. Thanks Doug for your help in the past and your continued support today and tomorrow. Our family is what it is today because of your dedicated interest and very professionaL help!

Dr. Doug Smith has helped me out of depression and into a world of new life and thinking patterns/mindset. It took a lot of time and effort as most endeavours of this nature do. He is very professional and has LIFE EXPERIENCE, which separates him from others who are generally textbook-educated. There is something to say about mental health experience in this field....certainly made a difference in the connection I could make with him in this way. He is unique and amazing in his efforts and care....but also honest and pushes you in the right direction.


I went from the bottom to back at my job at an elite level and then decided to move on and start a new business, got married, and have a great life. I am forever thankful for his part in my recovery!

Not recommended. Not professional at all... just an elderly couple trying to cash in on his credentials. Dithering admin, just a room in their house, couldn't find receipts, dr. spent entire time rambling and didn't try to get to know my son or his needs at all... was far more interested in making sure I knew it would be a long process and would cost a lot. After an hour of time we left with nothing of value for us -- no clarity about his process (except it would be long & costly), no clarity about desired outcomes, not even the feeling that he was interested in finding out what our concerns were. Nothing for us -- just a hefty bill - cash only! So not impressed!

Seeing Dr Doug for 2 years has changed my life. I went from a person who has dealt with depression most of my life and felt sorry for myself. With Dr Doug’s coaching , toughness, and compassion at 44 I am living my best life. He gave me the tools that I carry in my toolbox everyday. I have accomplished my life dream of becoming a Firefighter and have also compete in Marathons. My family is happier also. Thank you Dr Doug forever grateful. I highly recommend Dr Doug. Put in the work and you too will lead a successful life. Thanks Dr Doug.

My husband and I had grown so far apart in the last years of our 50 year marriage. Then came a year of infidelity and betrayal, after which we agreed to seek marriage counselling to help repair the damage done. We were so fortunate to find Dr. Doug. He guided us through the long and often painful sessions where we learned to deal with our issues, some of which we weren't even aware. In spite of our resistance at times, he enabled us to overcome these issues that had contributed to the souring of our relationship. We had never been able to talk to each other in a positive, meaningful way and Dr. Doug taught us how, and how to be active listeners. It wasn't always a smooth ride but after two years we are the happiest we have EVER been. We look forward to this day and the next in a life filled with unconditional love. Thank you, Dr. Doug, from both of us.

Dr. Douglas Smith helped me to raise my game from an average NHL hockey player to one of the great ones. He also helped me to keep grounded and not let the success and money go to my head. Many thanks to Dr. Doug

Dr. Doug Smith is the best in his field. We have tried other psychologists, but we found he has the most experience and best credentials of anyone we know. His unique PROMIND marriage repair system really worked for us. He does not waste time and gets right to the point. We have referred both family and friends to him. We highly, highly recommend him!

Dr. Smith is amazing!!! I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to keep their marriage together. He only works with couples who are committed to the process and want to work on their relationship. He has helped us to talk to each other without yelling and getting into constant arguments and we are now much more relaxed and happy which has also helped us to deal with our kids in a more positive way too. Again, cant say enough positives about Dr. Smith.
