Adrianna brings 16 years of counseling experience to each session and speaks English.
Adrianna centers sessions on building a reliable therapeutic connection. She uses straightforward conversation to identify what matters most to a client and then sets practical goals.
How Ajiroghene works
Sessions are focused and down-to-earth so busy people can make steady progress. Her approach blends several methods to match a person's needs. She draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify values and act toward them.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy helps address long-standing relationship patterns that affect trust and closeness. Adrianna also works with practical concerns such as parenting strain, caregiver stress, career challenges, and compassion fatigue.
She addresses specific issues like abandonment, blended family adjustments, cancer-related stress, and disruptive mood challenges in children when relevant to the client’s situation. Getting started involves a simple matching process and flexible session formats like video calls or phone. Adrianna aims to make counseling usable for real life so people can handle what comes next.

Online support options
How these approaches translate to online care
Ajiroghene uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values. ACT is useful for coping with anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions by focusing on action rather than avoidance.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT works well for anxiety, depression, stress, and managing mood patterns by teaching concrete skills to test and reframe thinking.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Adrianna will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, try methods that fit, and adjust the plan as needed. The focus is on practical results that fit a person's life and routines.
Online therapy makes regular work easier to fit into a busy week. Video calls let people use visual cues when they matter. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or a good option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging allow ongoing support between sessions and quick access to tools or reminders. These formats provide flexibility for people balancing work, caregiving, or medical needs.
