As a therapist, I'm all about empathy and connection. Picture our sessions as a cozy, judgment-free zone where you can open up about anything on your mind. Together, we'll dive into your story, uncovering your unique strengths and tackling life's twists and turns with a big dose of compassion and resilience. It's a journey we'll walk side by side, with understanding and trust lighting the way.
Accepting NEW Clients – Do you feel like you’re never good enough, like you have to be perfect, or that you have to prove yourself to others? Are you tired of looking back on the things you said or did in order to try to be accepted and liked? Do you wish you could focus on putting yourself first, and making your needs/wellbeing a priority? Do you struggle with confidence or self-esteem, or stress, anxiety, and low-mood? Together we can look at exploring the strengths, relationships, and experiences that have got you to this point, and move forward in a way that reconnects you with yourself and your goals.

Hi, my name is Ada. Maybe this is your first time seeking therapy or maybe you are searching for a better fit. Trying to find someone who is able to help can feel overwhelming, especially with so many options. For 22 years, my passion has been working with individuals who have struggled with old wounds and life's unrelenting hardships.
My speciality is making sense of your life story: the experiences, stuck thoughts, feelings and perhaps, even memories that have contributed to where you are today. Gaining a better understanding of what brought you here will help shape what you need to feel better. Getting the lay of the land of your life story not only helps to understand where you've been, but also where you need to go from here. We can do this by getting to know those wounded parts of self and, finally, giving them a voice to heal. Understanding your life story is most effective in making those desired changes because it is complete – understanding you, from beginning, middle and beyond. I look forward to connecting with you and starting you on your journey of self discovery and healing.
