Adrienne tends to help people who have had trouble finding a therapist who fits. She welcomes concerns tied to trauma, grief, loss, emotional neglect, and attachment wounds. Conversations may move between problem-solving and exploring what gives life more meaning.
Her style balances active dialogue with reflection. Clients work on clear goals, such as managing symptoms, making career decisions, or changing relationship patterns. The emphasis is on figuring out what feels true and useful in each person’s life.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Adrienne uses evidence-based tools in her work, including cognitive behavioral techniques that help identify unhelpful thinking and build practical coping skills. CBT-style work is useful for managing distressing thoughts, reducing avoidance, and practicing new behaviors in everyday situations.She also uses humanistic-existential ideas to address questions of meaning, identity, and life purpose. That approach invites reflection on values, difficult emotions, and how past attachment wounds influence current choices. Together these methods help balance short-term skills with deeper personal exploration.
Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work. Adrienne collaborates with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals and preferences. She adjusts the balance of skills practice and reflective conversation as needs change over time.
