About Adamina
Her sessions begin with an assessment to understand current struggles and goals. She uses a mix of approaches to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts, manage strong emotions, and set small, realistic goals.

Adamina emphasizes practical skills alongside reflection. That can include learning ways to reduce anxiety in daily life, improving communication, and developing routines that support mood and energy. She encourages clients to track progress and adjust goals as needed.
Her style is personable and steady. She aims to create a space where people feel heard and able to explore hard topics such as guilt, abandonment, attachment struggles, and caregiver stress. She also addresses issues like commitment concerns, infidelity, and family of origin patterns.
Adamina provides telehealth care to adult clients throughout California. She recommends scheduling either live video or phone sessions and does not offer live chat.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and supporting people to find their own solutions. The therapist provides acceptance and reflection to help clients clarify goals and priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching concrete skills to shift thoughts and behaviors.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication. It can be useful when strong moods or relationship conflicts get in the way of daily life.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide what methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. Early sessions include an assessment and open conversation about what to try first, with adjustments over time based on progress.
Because sessions are offered remotely to adults in California, confirm current session options before booking. The therapist recommends live video or phone sessions and does not provide live chat. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, shorten commute time, and allow for flexible check-ins during a workday or between appointments.
