Background and approach
Solution-Focused Therapy supports short-term goals and small, manageable steps toward change. She also draws on mindfulness practices to calm the body and slow racing thoughts. Sessions mix skill-building and problem-solving.
Adele will often break concerns into small parts, set a short goal, and test changes between meetings. She explains strategies in simple language and offers concrete homework to practice new skills. This makes progress easier to notice and keeps work focused.
Adele values the relationship she builds with each person. She aims to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where people can say what they are really feeling and try different approaches. Her style is direct but compassionate, with an emphasis on practical coping skills.
Her background includes a Master of Arts degree in Counseling from Webster University and five years delivering individual, group, and family sessions. She conducts sessions in English and works remotely with people in South Carolina using video, phone, chat, or text formats.
How her approaches translate to online care
Adele uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related routines, and stress because it breaks problems into small, changeable parts. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple breathing and attention practices to reduce reactivity and ease overwhelm; these are often used to calm the body and focus attention.Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. Adele works with each person to set goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful. She aims to keep work practical so progress can be measured and changed when needed.
Online sessions offer flexible ways to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let people work face-to-face without travel, phone sessions can be a lighter option when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging supports quick check-ins or written practice between meetings. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity and try strategies in the context of daily life.
