About Arthur
Arthur Adams is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Indiana with 38 years of experience. He brings decades of work with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, mood disorders, and trauma. Arthur writes plainly and listens closely to what matters most to each person he meets.
He treats individuals as whole people rather than labels. His work emphasizes strengths and practical steps. Clients can expect respectful, non-judgmental conversations that focus on goals they want to reach.
How Arthur works
In sessions he draws on solution-focused and person-centered ideas to help people find clearer paths forward. That often means identifying small changes that reduce anxiety or addictive urges, and building on what already works in someone’s life. Arthur has many years of experience with substance dependency, sex and pornography addiction, eating disorders, gambling, and addictive family system dynamics.
He also helps with relationship strain, blended family issues, divorce and separation, domestic violence concerns, grief, anger, and questions about intimacy and sexuality. He supports people dealing with mood disorders, bipolar conditions, panic and obsessive-compulsive patterns, and the emotional fallout of midlife transitions. He also addresses parenting challenges, career stress, self-esteem, guilt and shame, forgiveness work, and men’s issues.
Sessions are offered in English and Arthur accepts international clients. He provides a practical, goal-oriented style aimed at helping people make meaningful changes and regain a sense of direction.

Practical approaches for online therapy and change
Arthur draws on evidence-based, person-centered approaches that focus on clear goals and real-life changes. Person-centered work centers on the person’s priorities and values, using empathic listening to help someone find direction and confidence. Solution-focused techniques concentrate on identifying small, achievable steps and building on existing strengths to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Arthur will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He adjusts techniques over time based on what helps most and what feels comfortable for the individual.
Online formats used include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text messaging offer shorter, flexible interactions that can fit between work or family obligations. These options make it easier to maintain consistency, work around schedules, and try different ways of engaging with a licensed professional.
