Dr. Adela Hruby

I work compassionately with generally high-functioning adults who may be experiencing a range of potential symptoms that diminish their mental and/or physical health and well-being. These may include anxiety, perfectionism, and performance challenges; self-esteem and self-worth; body image and disordered eating; managing chronic disease; grief and loss; depression; relationship challenges with friends, partners, and family members; and life and career transitions that may include finding meaning in life. I often work with people who simply find life is easier when they have a non-judgmental connection outside of their usual circles.

My approach is integrative and oriented to fit your needs. I draw from Internal Family Systems (IFS) to explore the different parts of you that may feel in conflict with one another, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), to help identify and shift unhelpful patterns, and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) to build grounded present-moment awareness. I work from a humanistic and relational lens, which means the relationship we build is itself part of what heals. Whatever approach we use, it centers on your goals, your pace, and what resonates for you.

It is my hope that clients will feel ready to share the reasons they are pursuing therapy, that they feel comfortable enough to ask questions they might have, and answer questions about their experiences that I might have, and that we begin to discuss how we can best work together.
