About Adja

Adults, Teens, Couples, and Neuropsychiatric Coaching Therapy for ADHD and ASD 6+ Hello, I’m Adja, a compassionate and dedicated therapist with a strong foundation in education and a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology (MACP) from Yorkville University. In My therapeutic approach is integrative, drawing from a variety of evidence-based techniques tailored to meet each client's unique needs. I incorporate strategies from Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to support clients in navigating life’s challenges. This flexible approach allows me to guide individuals in a way that is both compassionate and effective. In addition to my clinical work, I am a certified Solution-Focused Neuropsychiatric Coach, specializing in executive skills coaching for individuals with ADHD or ASD. This certification allows me to offer specialized support for those seeking to develop and refine skills related to focus, organization, time management, and emotional regulation. I am deeply committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can express themselves openly. Together, we can work through challenges, build resilience, and empower you on your journey toward self-discovery and lasting change. Thank you for considering me as a partner in your personal transformation. I look forward to the opportunity to support you in achieving your goals.
