How Adriene Uses Therapeutic Techniques Online
Adriene draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and regain steady functioning. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them against real-life evidence to reduce anxiety and self-criticism. This method helps people reframe negative beliefs and try new behaviors that feel more helpful.Another approach centers on processing traumatic memories more safely and building skills to manage strong emotions. It aims to reduce the intensity of distressing reactions and increase a person's sense of control over daily life. Both methods translate well to remote formats when adapted to individual needs.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Adriene collaborates with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan as progress is made or priorities shift.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone calls work well for those with limited bandwidth, live chat can be useful for shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue work even when schedules change.
