More about Adrianna

  • LPC

Welcome! I am delighted to be here with you. My name is Adrianna Onwawoma. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina and a National Certified Counselor. I graduated with a Master's Degree in Counseling at Regent University, Virginia.

My dream is that you find true happiness and contentment regardless of life's challenges. I specialize in working with individuals going through challenging times to navigate through life successfully. In the last ten years, I helped individuals, children, and families work through a variety of issues that include depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, and relationship issues. My therapeutic approach is eclectic and will be specifically tailored for you. I use a variety of techniques such as psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, trauma-focused, motivational, and existential therapies.

I believe in being compassionate, showing warmth, and providing a non-judgmental space that feels safe. I believe that through the establishing of an authentic relationship, you can unravel problems, be empowered, and find the healing you need to transform your life. Let's get started.

About online counseling

Affordable.

Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
