About Adenia
Adenia Perez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Carolina and Arizona with 11 years of clinical experience. She lists stress, anxiety, grief, parenting concerns, self-esteem, depression, anger, career questions, coping with life changes, coaching, compassion fatigue, and ADHD among the issues she addresses. Adenia works in English and Spanish and accepts international clients.
Adenia focuses on practical steps people can use day to day. Sessions often look at unhelpful thoughts and patterns and then test small changes in daily life. She uses clear techniques from cognitive behavioral approaches alongside acceptance-based ideas to help people notice values and take manageable steps toward them.
Her background includes work in nonprofits, schools, and community settings. That range of experience informs how she supports people dealing with mood problems, grief, isolation, workplace stress, and parenting strain. She also addresses concerns such as abandonment, caregiver stress, communication problems, guilt and shame, and life purpose.
Adenia combines client-centered attention with skills from dialectical behavior approaches and emotionally-focused work when relationships or emotional regulation are central. That mix is used to improve communication, manage strong feelings, and reduce reactivity. Practical tools and brief skill practices are introduced during sessions and reinforced between meetings.
People who want a straightforward, skills-oriented approach will find the sessions organized around clear goals. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session to set priorities and next steps.
How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Adenia uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT helps people reduce anxious thinking patterns and learn practical coping skills.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values. ACT can help when avoidance or fear limits daily activities and relationships.
Deciding which approach to use is a shared process. The therapist will review goals, try a few strategies, and adjust based on what feels most useful. That collaborative stance helps tailor which skills and exercises are emphasized over time.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people practice skills in everyday settings and bring real-life situations into the conversation for testing and feedback.
