Background and approach
Clients who want to build self-love, improve boundaries, or cope with life changes will find structured support. Her approach blends several therapies to match each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps spot unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Attachment-Based and Client-Centered methods focus on building a trusting relationship and understanding patterns in close connections. Adriana describes her work as collaborative and practical.
She helps people set achievable goals and practices new ways of handling stress and cravings. Therapy sessions include psychoeducation, skill-building, and guided reflection to strengthen coping over time. People come to her for concerns that range from ADHD and bipolar symptoms to parenting strain, career stress, and compassion fatigue.
She also supports those navigating LGBT issues, eating or sleeping problems, and recovery from loss. Adriana aims to help people reconnect with strengths and move toward clearer, calmer days.
Approaches that guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and making changes that matter over time. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying thought patterns and testing them with small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like worry or low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions and handling crises more calmly.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Adriana will talk with each client about goals, preferences, and how they respond to different methods. That collaboration helps shape a plan that combines skills practice, reflection, and problem-solving to fit daily life.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people share thoughts between sessions and get ongoing support without scheduling an extra call. These options help therapy fit around work, caregiving, and other responsibilities.
