Adrianna

Hi, I’m Adrianna, a Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist in NC, a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate in SC, and a Certified Clinical Supervisor-I in NC with over a decade of experience helping people navigate life’s toughest moments. Whether you’re facing anxiety, trauma, substance use, or seeking LGBTQ+ support, I’m here to offer you the care and guidance you need to heal and grow.

From a young age, I knew I had a calling to uplift those around me. I’ve always been attuned to the needs of others, striving to make things better, to ease their burdens, and to be the unwavering support they need. If I were given a title, it would likely be “the fixer,” a natural benefactor whose kindness and encouragement have been at the core of who I am. Being a good listener comes naturally to me, and I offer genuine compassion and heartfelt understanding to everyone who walks through my door. No matter the challenge, I’m always here, always ready, and always “having your back.”

In my sessions, I prioritize building a supportive and trusting relationship where you feel safe to express yourself without judgment. I use active listening, thoughtful questioning, and careful interpretation of nonverbal communication to foster a space where we can explore your emotions and experiences. My approach is guided by empathy, and my goal is to ensure you feel truly heard, understood, and validated. I believe healing is not a one-size-fits-all process, and that’s why I adapt my approach to meet your unique needs. We work together to explore your emotions, unravel patterns, and find the path to emotional well-being at your own pace.

For over ten years, I’ve worked with children, adolescents, and adults, supporting them in overcoming their personal challenges and growing into stronger versions of themselves. Whether you’re dealing with the trauma of your past or simply seeking a space to grow, I’m here to walk with you on that path. Healing isn’t just about overcoming the hurdles in life—it’s about discovering the strength, resilience, and self-awareness that lies within you.

What Sets Me Apart

Healing is deeply personal, and it’s something I approach with compassion, trust, and unwavering support. What differentiates my practice from others is my commitment to creating a space where you feel safe, seen, and heard. Over the years, I’ve worked with people of all ages, from children to adults, and my approach is rooted in understanding each person’s unique story. My practice isn’t about fitting people into a single mold; instead, I tailor treatment to meet your specific needs and goals.

I combine evidence-based therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Person-Centered Therapy to create an integrative, individualized approach. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all solution—my work is about collaborating with you, adapting strategies, and developing tools that work for you. Clients come to me not just for my clinical expertise but for the genuine connection I foster. I prioritize listening, offering a safe space for growth, and providing the tools necessary for you to thrive.

If you’re navigating a life transition, managing mental health struggles, or simply seeking personal development, I’m here to support, guide, and empower you. When you step into therapy with me, you’re not just receiving clinical care; you’re gaining a partner in your healing journey. Let’s work together to build a future where you feel understood, supported, and ready to thrive.
