Background and approach

She listens without judgement and adapts the pace and topics to each person's needs. She also draws on mindfulness approaches to help people manage overwhelming thoughts and feelings. Practical breathing and attention exercises are used alongside talking to build new ways of coping in daily life.

Adriana has four years of professional experience and holds BACP registration. Her background includes supporting people with life changes, career stress, intimacy-related worries and compassion fatigue. She aims to make therapy straightforward and approachable.

In sessions she helps people name what feels difficult, try small changes, and practise new responses. Adriana tailors the plan to each person rather than following a fixed script. That makes it easier to work through problems that affect day-to-day life.

How client-centred and mindfulness approaches work online

Adriana uses client-centred therapy online by focusing sessions on the person's priorities. This approach means the counsellor follows the client's lead, reflects what they say, and adapts questions to find what matters most. It helps when someone needs a space to be heard and understood without pressure.

She also uses mindfulness therapy to teach simple practices that calm the body and mind. These exercises include breathing techniques and short attention practices that can be practised between sessions to reduce overwhelm and improve focus. Mindfulness is useful for stress, anxiety and difficulties with concentration or intense feelings.

Figuring out the right approach is a shared process. Adriana will work with each person to test out methods, check what feels helpful, and adjust the plan based on goals and preferences. The aim is a practical fit rather than a one-size-fits-all programme.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is useful for a fuller conversational experience, phone calls suit those with lower bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera, and messaging can support brief check-ins or ongoing reflection between conversations. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments and everyday life.
