About Adrianne
She keeps sessions straightforward and compassionate. She offers a calm space for people to talk about loneliness, guilt, or feelings that come with hospice, end-of-life decisions, or a cancer diagnosis. Conversations are paced to match each person’s needs and ability to cope.
Adrianne uses practical techniques to help people manage upsetting thoughts and strong emotions. She listens for what matters most and helps clients identify small steps that reduce stress and restore a sense of control. The aim is to make daily life easier, not to rush healing.
Her work often addresses the strain of caregiving and the complicated feelings that role can bring. She supports caregivers in naming burnout, setting limits, and finding ways to care for themselves while meeting responsibilities for others.
People who choose her tend to want steady guidance during hard transitions. To begin, she asks about each person’s situation and goals, then shapes sessions to fit those needs. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.

Approaches that guide online care
Adrianne uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people facing grief and life transitions. One approach focuses on practical coping strategies that break problems into manageable steps, which can ease daily stress and reduce overwhelm. Another approach emphasizes gentle emotional processing, helping people name painful feelings like guilt or shame and work through them at a steady pace.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and what feels most helpful, and then tailor techniques to fit those preferences. The therapist and client review progress together and adjust work as needed.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, avoid travel, and maintain contact during times of illness or caregiving demands. They can also allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or for conversations without being on camera when that helps someone engage more comfortably.
