ABOUT ADRIANA

Hi, my name is Adriana.

What inspired me to be a counsellor was all thanks to my experience back in my teenage years, where I struggled with my insecurities and punished myself for these flaws. In that instance, I was fortunate to have access to therapy, which allows me to appreciate the menial, little things and to slowly accept the imperfections we are made of. Our lives were never destined to be smooth sailing. Sometimes, we need an anchor and at times we have to learn to adjust the sails, to learn to accept the person we are, and it takes effort and time. In the therapy session, you are the narrator of your life, in control of your stories and the way you would like to share them. The hiccups, the writer’s block you have faced in life and the uncertainty about deciding is a part of living. I believe that when it comes to therapy, the desire of wanting yourself to change is the best possible outcome. Change starts from taking the first step, the smallest step forward from your current position. Reaching out, and seeking therapy, is a milestone that deserves applause. A therapy session is a no-judgement zone, a channel for you to express your inner turmoil and it allows you to recognise your feelings and thoughts. Being vulnerable and honest with yourself is the start of your self-discovering journey. I am here to assist you in guiding and hope that you can view a clearer picture of the life you would like to embark on. With this opportunity given to me, I would like to reach out my hand in companionship – so take my hand and let’s embark on a journey of learning from each other so we can steer the wheel together.

APPROACH

“

My main counselling approach is Person- Centered Therapy where the idea that each of us has the power to find the best solutions for ourselves and the ability to make appropriate changes in our lives. Along with the use of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) that focuses on our thoughts, normally the inaccurate or negative one so we can view challenging situations more clearly and decide on the best way to respond to them. I integrated Mindfulness which focuses more to the present, Brainspotting that uses the field of vision to access traumatic memories in my therapy session.
