Background and approach
Conversations are paced to each person's needs and aim to build everyday tools that fit real life. Adriana blends several practical therapies to match a client’s goals. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns.
She draws on acceptance-based strategies to help people live by their values even when feelings are loud. Attachment-focused ideas are used when relationship patterns and early experiences shape current struggles. Dialectical behavior methods help with strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.
Client-centered practices keep the person’s perspective and priorities at the center of care. Many people come to Adriana hoping to reduce overwhelm, improve communication, or find calmer ways to cope with stress. She works with each person to set realistic steps and practice skills between sessions.
Her aim is practical progress that fits into a busy life.
Approaches in online therapy and how they help
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions, then choose behaviors that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. It often helps with mood, worry, sleep, and building routines that reduce daily stress.
Adriana treats finding the right approach as a joint project. She works with clients to match methods to goals and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress is made. The plan evolves based on what helps most in real life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and teaching of new skills. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging work well for quick emotional support, skill practice, and people who prefer typed conversation. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into school, work, or family schedules.
