About Adrian

Adrian Kim is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Indiana with ten years of clinical experience. She lists stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and depression among the issues she helps people with. She also works with parenting strain and compassion fatigue.

Her approach is straightforward and conversational. Sessions begin by listening to what matters most and setting clear, short-term goals. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on each person's perspective, and draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking that increase worry or low mood.

Adrian also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and mindfulness practices when clients need tools for managing strong emotions or staying present. Motivational Interviewing is available to help people clarify what they want to change and find practical steps to get there. She chooses approaches that match a person's goals rather than insisting on a single method.

In practice, sessions are a mix of talking, skill-building, and simple exercises to try between meetings. The aim is concrete strategies that can be used in everyday situations, such as managing social stress or coping with relationship conflict. Progress is checked regularly so plans can be adjusted.

Adrian works in Indiana and conducts sessions in English. She does not accept international clients. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and a scheduled first session are the usual next steps.

How Adrian uses evidence-based methods online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s perspective and involves reflective listening and collaborative planning; it helps when someone wants to feel heard and to set clear goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep anxiety or low mood going and offers practical techniques to change those patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Adrian will ask about current problems, goals, and what has or hasn’t helped before. She and the client decide together which methods to try and adjust them as progress is reviewed.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. These practical benefits help people keep regular appointments and practice skills between meetings.
