Adrienne is very accommodating of what makes you feel comfortable making it feel safe to open up. She is very easy to talk to and holds space for your questions concerns and doubts. I really enjoy her unique approach to personalize our sessions according to my needs and what works for me as her patient. You can see how devoted she is to helping her patients feel empowered and like they are benefiting from therapy.

Adriene is a great therapist. She is attentive and makes sure we discuss everything I would like to discuss during the session. She is a great listener and gives input when you ask for it. She has helped me a lot. Very grateful for her.

Adriene is a true gift as a therapist. She has helped me to pin down those aspects of my life where I need to heal, with a clear understanding of my cultural background and family issues. I'm really looking forward to continuing my sessions with Adriene this year and going deeper into my healing process. Thank you!
