About Adam
Adam Hunt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 15 years of experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, family concerns, trauma and abuse, eating issues, anger, career stress, and coping with life changes.
Adam sees the mind and nervous system as doing their best to protect someone, even when those strategies become a problem. He helps people identify the patterns that keep them stuck, such as thought loops, avoidance, shutdown, people-pleasing, and harsh self-criticism. Sessions focus on practical skills that can be used between meetings, not just insight that feels good in the moment.
His style mixes practical work with deeper exploration. He commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and solution-focused techniques. He adjusts these approaches to match each person rather than applying a single fixed plan.
Typical sessions aim to build psychological flexibility and strengthen a person's ability to respond to stress. Adam describes the work as equipping people with tools they can keep using after therapy ends. The emphasis is on clear patterns, specific strategies, and small steps that fit everyday life.
People who find social situations difficult may find his focus on patterns and real-world skills helpful when addressing social anxiety or phobic reactions. He practices in Wisconsin and conducts work in English.
How Adam uses ACT and CBT online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then clarifying what matters and taking small actions toward those values. It can be useful for persistent anxiety and avoidance patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills to change them, which often helps with worry, low mood, and social fears. Solution-focused techniques emphasize setting clear, short-term goals and building on small successes to create momentum.Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit best based on the person’s goals, day-to-day challenges, and preferences. Adjustments are expected as work progresses so the plan stays practical and relevant.
Confirm the therapist's available session formats before booking, since specific formats are not listed in the biography. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some people find video helpful for face-to-face conversation, while others prefer audio-only for lower bandwidth or easier breaks during a workday. Ask about the current session options to find what fits best.
