About Adriana
Adriana Cavazos is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Texas with 20 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship struggles in clear, practical ways. Her work centers on understanding what feels stuck.
She listens for patterns in communication, guilt, shame, and isolation. Then she helps clients try small changes that feel manageable in daily life. Adriana blends several approaches to match each person's needs.
How Adriana works
She uses techniques that help people notice painful thoughts without being overwhelmed and skills to change unhelpful behavior. Sessions often include real-time tools for coping with stress, anger, sleep problems, or cravings. She pays attention to how early attachments shape current relationships and to the ways self-worth and belonging show up in behavior.
This can be useful when addressing intimacy concerns, parenting strain, or identity-related stressors like LGBT issues. Clients can expect a calm, respectful space to talk things through and practice new skills. Adriana helps people set concrete goals and checks progress along the way.
Her aim is steady improvement so daily life feels more manageable. Outside specific goals, she supports people facing life transitions, career questions, and compassion fatigue. Adriana also offers coaching-style guidance when clients want structured steps for change.

Approach and benefits of online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them drive every choice. It focuses on values and small actions that add meaning, which can help with anxiety, depression, or life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical steps to change unhelpful patterns; it often helps with sleep problems, mood, and coping skills. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current connection and trust, which can be useful for intimacy issues and communication problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they test different techniques and adjust the plan based on what actually helps in day-to-day life.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and skill demonstration. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat or messaging can support shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching, or a way to process between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule while still working with licensed professionals.
