Background and approach
Sessions focus on steps people can take between meetings to feel steadier and more in control. Her clinical style draws on client-centered methods that center the person’s experience. She also uses cognitive behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful thoughts and DBT skills when emotions run high.
Mindfulness techniques are woven in to help with tension, sleep, and attention challenges. Adina has six years of professional experience and holds LICSW and LCSW credentials. She practices in the District of Columbia and works with concerns such as trauma, grief, caregiver stress, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
Her background includes helping people who face attachment and abandonment wounds, codependency, and difficulties with communication. In sessions she offers straightforward conversation and practical exercises. The goal is clearer thinking, calmer emotions, and better day-to-day coping.
She supports people as they try new ways of handling old problems and build more satisfying routines.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Adina often blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques. Client-centered Therapy focuses on understanding a person's experience and adapting the conversation to their pace, which helps people feel heard and build trust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical strategies to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful patterns.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills when emotions or impulsivity feel overwhelming. DBT offers concrete tools for calming intense feelings, improving relationships, and managing strong reactions. Choosing which approaches to use is collaborative; the therapist will help decide what fits your goals and preferences as work begins.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to match different needs. Video is useful for more in-depth work and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quick check-in, and text messaging supports brief coaching or ongoing support between sessions. These options aim to make therapy easier to fit into busy routines while maintaining consistent progress.
