Zola, Therapy Dog
She/Her/Hers


Zola is a 7-year-old “super mutt” and a cherished member of the MadCity Psychology team. As the co-therapist to Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Eating Disorder Specialist Ali Manley, Zola brings warmth, empathy, and a calming presence to the therapy room. She is especially attuned to clients working through trauma or managing anxiety, offering gentle companionship that helps create a sense of safety and grounding.
Zola loves greeting clients with a friendly tail wag and is always ready to provide quiet support during sessions. To ensure that every client feels comfortable, Ali thoughtfully screens clients in advance to confirm they are okay with dogs. If you are planning to visit the clinic and prefer not to interact with Zola, please contact Ali directly (ali@madcitypsych.com) so accommodations can be made.
