She supports people dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, addictions, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy challenges, parenting and family issues, self-esteem concerns, sleep and eating difficulties, anger, career questions, and adjustment to life changes. Her practice also responds to concerns such as bipolar symptoms, panic and phobias, OCD, ADHD and autism where appropriate.

Therapeutic approaches and online care with Adelle

Adelle commonly draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her practice. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an accepting, empathetic space where the client leads the pace and topics of work; it supports self-awareness, confidence and navigating relationship or life changes. CBT involves identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, and is often used to address anxiety, low mood, stress and related coping difficulties.

She also incorporates psychodynamic ideas when helpful, exploring how past experiences and recurring patterns influence current feelings and relationships to deepen understanding and long-term change. Choosing an approach is a collaborative part of therapy - Adelle works with each person to find the methods that best fit their needs, goals and preferences and adapts the work over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Adelle is delivered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, providing practical flexibility for scheduling and access. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, to continue work during transitions, and to connect with a licensed professional from different locations when needed.
