How Adenia’s Approaches Work Online

Adenia commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT helps people clarify what matters most and take action toward those values while learning to accept hard emotions. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood.

She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people understand and shift strong emotional responses that affect relationships and personal wellbeing. That approach is useful when emotions, attachment concerns, or heartbreak get in the way of daily functioning and close connections.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Adenia will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and current needs. She treats therapy as a collaboration and will adjust techniques based on what helps most.
