Catriona Schmidt
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, NCC, National Certified Counselor
There are many reasons that people decide to seek counseling. Everyone experiences change, loss, life transitions, and challenges at some time in their lives; however, navigating our thoughts and feelings can become overwhelming to try and address alone. Therapy can provide a supportive environment that is safe, nonjudgemental, and accepting.
I specialize in the areas of depression, anxiety, life adjustments, mood disorders, grief and loss, perinatal health, and relationship issues. Identifying strengths, increasing insight, and developing skills are incorporated during the counseling process to promote growth and well-being.
My approach to therapy is client centered and strength based. Through a collaborative process of support and encouragement, I believe that clients are empowered to be a part of their own growth and healing. I look forward to working with you on your personal journey.

Dr. Sonia Ovuehor Ovy
Counselor/Therapist, Doctor of science in Counselling Psychology, Msc Conflict Resolution, Advanced Diploma in Psychotherapy, Counselling and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Certificate in Mental Health Studies, Suicide Prevention and Intervention, Diploma in Relationship and Family Counselling, CPD in Neuro Linguistic Programming.
I am a globally certified relationship and marriage coach, licensed Counsellor, seasoned Therapist. My years of hands-on experience cut across relationship therapy, marital counselling, business coaching, career mentorship, grief/trauma/addiction recovery, etc.
I possess grandiose expertise in listening, absorbing and analyzing human problems without prejudice. As an individual who has experienced life from all angles (right from a tender age), I am apparently in a better position to counsel and admonish individuals who battle with depression, anxiety, retrogression/set backs, financial turmoils, addiction, emotional/domestic abuse, rejection, youthful exuberance, juvenile delinquency, child abuse, marital/family crisis, etc.
My professional background makes me capable of being a great confidant and less judgmental. My sense of humor often gives my clients a soothing sigh of relief, irrespective of the burden at hand.
I also provide spiritual counselling services for deeper issues beyond basic comprehension.
