Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
CAROLINA GAMA, M.A.
"We think we listen, but very rarely do we listen with real understanding, true empathy. Yet listening, of this very special kind, is one of the most potent forces for change that I know."
Carl Rogers
Hi, I'm Carolina (She/Her),
Do you feel overwhelmed, sad or ashamed? Have you tried to solve things on your own with no significant results? Do you fear that you'll always have to live as though you are barely keeping your head above water? If you answered yes to any of those questions, you've come to the right page. I understand! I help adults struggling with mental health. Having been diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, my personal experience is an additional asset to my professional expertise. So many of my clients started where you are, and are now reporting feeling empowered, in control and thriving. I want that for you too!
In our sessions, we'll create a supportive and non-judgmental environment where you can freely share your experiences and concerns. Together, we'll explore your strengths and challenges, helping you to attain a deeper understanding of yourself and working collaboratively to develop strategies to improve your overall well-being.
I know at this point that may sound too good to be true, and picking the right therapist isn’t always easy. So, I’m offering a complimentary strategy session where I can hear about what’s going on for you, and tell you more about how I work. We can see if it’s a good fit and go from there. Sound good? Schedule a 15-minute free consultation here!

My therapy approach centers on unconditional acceptance within a person-centred framework, prioritizing trust and collaboration. I integrate social justice, community-building, and compassion principles, fostering a safe space for exploration. Through empathy, we navigate your challenges, strengths, and goals, promoting personal growth and empowerment. I utilize an integrative modality drawing from various psychotherapeutic techniques like internal family systems and emotion-focused therapy and occasionally CBT.
