About Adrianna
She brings ten years of clinical experience working with trauma, substance use, and the aftermath of domestic violence. Adrianna often helps people manage shame, guilt, and isolation while rebuilding trust in themselves and others. She also supports those dealing with attachment wounds, abandonment, and communication breakdowns.
Adrianna pays particular attention to identity concerns, including gender dysphoria, and to struggles around infidelity, foster care or adoption experiences, and family conflict. Her work addresses practical patterns such as codependency, impulsivity, and avoidance that keep problems repeating.
Sessions focus on clear goals and small steps that can fit into everyday life. Adrianna listens closely, offers direct feedback, and helps people try new ways of relating and coping. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Clients describe a therapist who honors cultural differences and meets people where they are. Adrianna views therapy as a collaborative process and supports clients in finding greater balance, self-compassion, and more workable relationships.
How Adrianna’s approaches work in online therapy
Adrianna uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach she commonly applies helps people regulate intense emotions and reduce anxiety by teaching grounding skills, emotion tracking, and short behavioral experiments. This method can help with panic, high stress, and mood swings.Another strand of her work concentrates on trauma recovery and substance use, helping people understand how past events affect current behavior and teaching step-by-step coping strategies. That work often includes building safety plans, processing distressing memories at a manageable pace, and creating new routines to support recovery.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Adrianna collaborates with each person to pick strategies that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. She adjusts methods over time based on what is helping and what isn’t.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm which session formats the therapist currently offers before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It also makes continuity possible when life events or work schedules change, helping clients maintain momentum between in-person visits if those are an option.
