“I got my life’s purpose back from the Wheel of Consent workshop that Ada led. Prior to it, I was unaware of my boundaries and how to communicate them. I got such power from the workshop of tuning into my body and learning what it feels like when I’m a “No,” and conversely, learning what it feels like when I’m a “F*** Yes.” I walked away from the workshop with a renewed sense of pride, power, purpose, and accomplishment. Ada, thank you for standing for our empowerment.”

 

-Ben Gabin

 

“The way Ada presented the Wheel of Consent was super clear, very engaging, fun and at the same time very deep. There were so many layers. I could see how her experience as a somatic therapist and an educator were present. What I took away from this workshop was connection to my power and this real clarity around why I do things. And most importantly how to take my power back when things don't feel aligned. 

 

The language and practices offered gave me the integrated experience of how it feels to embody these tools in action, and how to track this whole process somatically in my body. I now have the tools to understand both how distorted and aligned patterns of thinking feel in my body and how they relate to cognition—this is so fundamental to self-empowerment and healing. I’m super grateful for this workshop and I now have the desire to attend this workshop many more times so that I may integrate even more. So thank you Ada for this experience.”

“First I want to say that I loved the way Ada guided the entire Emotional Release workshop. I felt so safe and supported and she did a great job of demonstrating the techniques, selecting the music and guiding us through the journey. I never would have been able to tap into so deeply to emotions such as anger and fear on my own—not even with years of experience in other healing modalities. It speaks to her capacity as a teacher and a space holder. It was such a powerful inner child healing experience. Different young “MEs” came up to the surface and I was able to release things I had held back because I didn’t have a safe container and didn’t have the tools as a little girl. After the emotional release experience my system felt so clear and at peace. I felt more present and grounded in my body. I am inspired to use these tools and bring them back to my community. Thank you Ada for creating such a safe container to heal in.”

My work with Ada has been nothing short of profound and potent. I came to her having already been deeply in a process of transcending porn addiction and performance anxiety. The paradigm that I had unsuccessfully relied on up to that point was rooted in fear -- using shame to try and spur enough motivation and willpower to abstain and "perform."

–Jonathon Silver. 

 

With the support of Ada, my whole process of healing became one rooted in love, and an understanding that my addictive behaviors were manifestations of parts of my life that had unmet needs. So we began to design my life in such a way that invited more of what I desired: intimacy, community, and purpose.

Samir Safadi

 

It is difficult to capture in words the vast scope of our work together. From the intimate to the professional, I have up-leveled at an incredible pace. Ada's wisdom is drawn from a unique lived experience and a dialed intuition, and is able to articulate her counsel in a way that feeds both my mind and heart. 

Maria S. Gomez

 

I leave our coaching container with a deep feeling of peace and resolve in my body. Eternally grateful to have had Ada in my corner during this chapter of intense transformation. 

 

--Brando

 

I started working with Ada after I saw the changes in my buddy of over 20 years. I was completely burned out, working a job that paid well that I hated, my dating life was a mess, and I was numbing with weed and alcohol. Ada connected me to my passions again. Taught me how to feel alive and inspired again. I had no idea I needed to work on my boundaries with myself. She helped me step out of the victim and actively decide what I want to participate in. Working with her I made an inventory of everything I wanted to change and then one by one we addressed each one either with mindset, behavioral changes or nervous system work. Her techniques were deceivingly simple. I completely changed my relationship to myself and how I engage with the people around me. I am in the first healthy relationship of my whole life. And I finally got the courage to quit my job and explore my bliss. I’m 50 years old and I feel like I just got my life back. 

Matt Childs

 

“When I came to Ada I felt completely shut down in my sensuality. She helped me unpack trauma stored in my body and work through the numbness it had created. Something I didn’t know was possible, I thought my turn on left with menopause. Her approach was so loving and her special blend of mindset and somatics worked really well for someone like me who tends to get stuck in their head. I think of myself now as a highly sensually alive person. I didn’t know what erotic self leadership was before but I certainly do now!”

Samantha Yin

 

“She makes things fun and that means a lot to me. I’ve worked with a lot of different coaches over the years and Ada’s approach is unique. She makes inner work feel like this magical game we get to play together. But it’s not fluff by any means. She's incredibly knowledgeable,  excellent at identifying blindspots and breakthrough opportunities… I got more out of my 1:1 customized program with her than I did over the last 10 years of therapy. I am not kidding. I’ve completely shifted my relationship to my mom and reconnected with parts of myself I thought I lost forever when I had children. 10/10 recommend to anyone who is ready for a next chapter.”

Dr. Virginia Moore

 

"It's the first time I’ve had shadow work taught in a fun way and the progress has stuck because I enjoy doing the work. Her system is fun and deeply transformative. Nothing like anything else I’ve tried before.” 

Katherine Schneider

 

“I finally get boundaries. After struggling with them my whole life with my family, my work and my partner. I finally get it and it’s a huge relief. I got back so much of my power with this one simple thing.”

Venus Virginia 

 

“Working with Ada taught me how to love and celebrate myself and that has changed what I feel is possible in life. She is so practical that self love feels like the easy and logical choice. I’ve never met someone so good at taking lofty concepts and grounding them into daily reality. Cannot recommend working with her enough! Actually life changing” 

Imani Jackson

 

“I think I could tell her anything and she wouldn’t judge me. She’s kind and incredibly present. I felt so safe working with her, it really helped me to open up about things I had never told anyone.” 

Shelly Moore

 

“I’ve struggled with shame and self doubt my whole life. Ada turned all my other therapy models on their head by teaching me me mindsets and nervous system practices to actually love and accept myself. It’s what we all want and she made it easy. She gave practical tools that I still work with to this day.”

Liz Baker

 

“I’ve been anxious my whole life. After my work with Ada I finally feel like my nervous system is working with me not against me. She taught me practical regulation tools as well as tracking my patterns to understand my cues much earlier on. Be careful though! You can’t unlearn what you learn from her. I’ve reorganized my whole life in a very positive way. I don’t priotize external success the way I used to, I’ve switched careers  and I am a lot happier because of it. Anyone who feels stuck or like they are ready to stop warring with themselves should see Ada. She’s an amazing guide and her methods get right to the heart of the problem. Highly recommend! 

Priya Kapoor

“I was first drawn to Ada because of her emphasis on the nervous system. I’ve struggled with chronic anxiety and people pleasing and I feel trapped and isolated a lot. She systematically helped me track my body’s signals and understand the cues way before the shut down. Through working with Ada I have shifted from thinking my mind and body are sabotaging me to thinking of them as intelligent allies. I feel like there was somatic literacy I was missing my whole life and she helped me find it. She inspired me so much that I am not becoming certified as a trauma informed somatic practitioner. Thank you Ada! I hope you know how much working with you has meant to me!”
Linnea Karlsson

“I came to Ada hoping she would help me fix patterns of people pleasing and chronic anxiety. She gently guided me through a curriculum that helped me see these loops that had been frustrating me for years as adaptive intelligence. Instead of “fixing” she taught me to meet the core need in new ways and expand my nervous system to have capacity for new ways of being.”
Emma Echart
"She’s fun. And that made me want to do my homework." Lukas Wagner
“Ada created an immersive experience where i got to play out my shadows and make new choices in the moment. It was fun an actually prepared me to make new choices in real life. I’ve made changes I didn’t think were possible. Thank you Ada for doing what you do! –Jessica Hayes
"The first shadow work that actually stuck. Felt like I’m a witch practicing real life magic!"
"I finally understand boundaries. After a lifetime of struggle. Huge relief." Sarah Mitchell
"The safety of knowing I could tell her anything and not feel judged." James Turner
"She takes these big lofty concepts and makes them radically practical. It’s a skill." Daniel Carter, MD
"Therapist’s therapist." -Camila Morales, Somatic Psychotherapist

"I consider her my personal fairy godmother. I pull her out of my pocket whenever I fall into old patterns and need to remember who I really am.”

Sara Rahimi
“She helped me unlock my capacity to love myself and that’s a gift that keeps on giving"
Emma V.

I wanted someone approachable who took a no nonsense approach to help me get my head out of my ass. Ada was perfect. Didn’t let me slide on anything, including radical self acceptance which turned out to be the major turning point for me. Before I started working with Ada I saw people pleasing and over achieving as part of my identity. Everything was always a moving target. She helped me learn to meet those fears through mindset and nervous system, expansion work and navigate my fear of abandonment and not enoughness in new ways. I not only understand the root causes but have tools I continue to work with daily. Anyone who feels stuck in over giving should work with her. You won’t regret it.
Sam Hoffman
“Ada’’s sneaky because no matter what you come to her for, you are going to leave with practical tools to love yourself more. I don’t know if you can put a price on that. It’s a major quality of life thing.”
Akash
Ada succeeded where years of therapy had not. She helped me understand the parts of me stuck in harmful relational patterns without shame, and her embodiment work actually made the shifts stick. Smart, practical, and wildly effective."
Sanne Janssen
"I came for couples coaching and stayed for everything else. Ada helped transform my marriage, quiet my inner critic, leave a job I hated, and build a life that actually feels meaningful. Massive before-and-after quality of life difference."
David Thomas

"After other addiction work failed, Ada’s approach finally clicked. I came to her to address weed and porn dependency, and relationship patterns that were actively harming me. Instead of this 12 step approach I had gotten from other porn addiction specialists, she took a two pronged approach that focused on inner acceptance rather than just behavior modification. She helped me untangle shame, people pleasing, cultivate inner presence and dissolve the shame around my patterns.  She gave me exercises and mindsets to support me actively cultivating an open heart space (her words). I now have healthier boundaries, a meaningful partnership, and a much better relationship with myself. I no longer am addicted to porn and weed. I could go on and on, but let’s just say her methods were 1000% successful. She over delivered.” 

David Azadi 

 

I’ve been exposed to or participated in abusive relationships my whole life, starting with my family dynamics as a child. I’ve had all kinds of therapy and I understand why I was repeating those patterns (or at least I thought I did) but that awareness only made me more self loathing. Ada taught me to see these patterns as adaptive intelligence, which completely punctured my shame. We were able to break down brick by brick what my needs were and begin a conscious dating protocol. I felt so supported and, well, loved. She was so humble and earnest about her capacity, even outsourcing me to other resources when she felt like she was outside her depth. I don’t care what it is you want to uplevel in your life, she’s probably your girl. I cannot recommend her enough. Part ally, part guide, part personal assistant, part spiritual advisor. She’s the full package. Exactly what holistic therapy should be.”

Sofia Farzan

"My partner and I have a good relationship and are always looking for new ways to take it to the next level. We had been together for over a decade by the time we started working with Ada and our intimacy had lapsed in the last years. I’m neuro spicy and have CPSD so it was really important to me to find the right person.  Ada was perfect. She created a custom program for us based on our intentions and challenges. She expertly led us in trauma-informed tools for touch, desire, and erotic connection that completely changed our intimacy. Ada helped give a voice to things that were hard to talk about in the relationship, like my turn ons, needs for emotional intimacy and even specific things like how it easier for me to connect to my sensuality when I was outside the house and the household duties that come with it. Things that I thought were "silly" became pillars of our own unique relating dynamic. She was so well spoken and sensitive to our needs. I had no idea we were some of her first online clients. Years later, we still use what she taught us to bring us closer."

Ladies, get couples coaching with Ada if you want someone else to teach your husband about the importance of cycle tracking (she helped him feel empowered) , female arousal systems (did you know they take 45 minutes to come online  minimum no matter what !?), how to touch you slowly and build erotic tension, how to have energetic s3x. My husband was so sceptical at first but the tantra element drew him in. He’d never seen a therapist but when we concluded our couples work he continued seeing her on his own. He’s a better lover and so much more emotionally available. I have a lot to thank Ada for. She was able to tell him things I've been trying to express for years in a way that he could understand and was excited to implement. 

Olivia Harris

 

I think a key to why Ada is so good at working with couples is she’s good at talking to men in ways that they understand. She’s able to share perspectives and practical tools in a way that feels not only nonjudgmental but clear and exciting. I think one thing that is special about Ada is that she advocates for both people amazingly skillfully so that they can get on the same page about things that have been looping for years. Her tools and mindset shifts are unconventional and wildly practical. 

Dr. Hannah Cooper, PhD

 

"We were stuck in painful recurring loops and honestly close to breaking up. Ada helped us understand what unconscious needs were driving our conflict and gave us practical tools to shift them. Now we can work through hard things without resentment building for weeks."

Maya Robinson

 

I met Ada while she was teaching at a tantra festival my partner and I attended. We were so blown away by her energetic s3x workshop. She had command of the whole room (over 100 couples) and it was one of the most mindblowing experiences of my life. I loved how she gave variations to take the spiciness deeper or tricks to identify if we were over stimulated and down regulate. Powerful, juicy and super trauma informed. We immediately signed up for her private guided eros rituals online. She was so professional and made us feel comfortable. And we got to keep the recordings so we continue to practice! 

Julia & Tomas Schneider 

 

"Postpartum completely changed intimacy for us. My body didn’t respond to my husband’s touch the way it used to, something that I felt tremendous guilt and shame around. I think Ada’s background as a doula helped me to feel seen and understood. Ada helped us rewrite our assumptions about sex, touch, desire, and partnership in a way that felt safe and genuinely connecting instead of pressured. It changed everything. I used to approach intimacy with some amount of obligation and resentment, which feels terrible to admit but its true. Now I feel like its a joyful co-creation that is ever evolving. I am so much more confident speaking up when things don’t work for me and I have actual alternatives to offer. So empowering! Thank you Ada! We didn’t even know how much we needed you!”

Charlotte & Kevin Hayes

 

Ada was amazing. She helped create a safe space to have challenging conversations I was afraid to navigate alone. Through my couple’s work with Ada I was able to admit to my husband that I didn’t org@asm in our love making, something that I’ve hidden and felt tremendous shame around for years. Ada helped me see my lack of turn on as divine wisdom leading me into deeper connection and pleasure instead of something that was broken about me. She taught us to slow down and take the pressure off with games and exercises that invited eros and playfulness back into our dynamic. I feel more connected to my body and my husband than ever. Thank you Ada!!!

Camila & Carlos Morales

 

"Anyone considering opening their relationship should see Ada first. She helped us clean up the damage from trying to DIY non-monogamy, create agreements that actually worked, and rebuild trust, intimacy, and connection. Best we’ve felt in our marriage in over a decade. Cannot recommend enough!"
