Personalized In-Person and Online Therapy for Women in Austin, TX.

Maybe you’ve realized that…

  • You’re overwhelmed, burned out, and know something has to change

  • You harshly criticize yourself, and sometimes feel like you don’t deserve words of kindness

  • You feel stuck in the chaos, but don’t know where or how to begin to create the change you need.

  • You find yourself overthinking EVERYTHING, which often results in getting nothing done.

  • You put things off until the last second, despite all of the ways you’ve tried to stop the vicious cycle.


The change you’ve been looking for IS possible.. And I’m here to help you every step of the way.

Hi, I’m Adriana…

 I want to offer you a warm and supportive space where you can feel safe enough to embark on your personal empowerment journey. Because I believe everyone has a unique experience of the world, I prioritize customizing our work together in a way that best suits YOU.

My goal is to help you heal from experiences that have been preventing you from unlocking your true potential. I also want to provide you with the right tools that will allow you to move forward with a powerful sense of meaning as the person you were always meant to be.

Here’s how I can help:

  • Anxiety

    Just because you’re used to it, doesn’t mean it’s healthy. 

    Anxiety can impact your work performance, relationships, and physical health. 

    I’ll teach you how to manage your anxiety symptoms with personalized coping skills that work for you.

  • Self-Esteem

    The way you see yourself MATTERS.

    Through our work together, we’ll identify your current perception of yourself, including how you feel about your intelligence, body image, and capabilities.

    You’ll then learn how to develop an accurate self-evaluation. The goal is to learn how to emphasize your strengths and lean into them to become the more confident, capable version of yourself.

  • Trauma

    There are some things that are just too big to sweep under the rug.

    Processing the darkest moments of our lives can oftentimes be too daunting to do ourselves. I’ll be your guide to help you process and move forward from those experiences that have been holding you back.

  • EMDR

    Eye-Movement-Desensitization-Reprocessing is an evidence-based form of therapy designed to treat symptoms related to disturbing or traumatic experiences.

    After a traumatic event, you may develop a self-limiting belief that can impact your relationship with yourself and others. Once we reduce the heightened emotional distress related to the negative memories, you are more likely to develop a new, healthy belief.

  • Relationships

    Relationship issues can feel nearly impossible to navigate when we don’t have the right tools.

    Being dissatisfied with the state of your romantic relationship can be a result of many possible factors, and we’'ll go through them together.

    You’ll learn effective communication skills, boundary-setting techniques, emotion management as it relates to your attachment style, and what it means to be in a truly healthy relationship.

  • Burnout

    Do you often wish you could just quit your job?

    Before you think about that option too much, let’s evaluate your relationship with your work. Burnout could be a result of poor work-life balance, unhealthy dynamics at the workplace, or unrealistic expectations regarding your work performance- just to name a few.

    As part of our work together, we’ll identify the root causes contributing to your burnout and how they can be addressed. I’ll create a personalized plan with actionable steps to reduce anxiety symptoms as they relate to burnout.

Testimonials

  • "I've gone through a handful of therapists over the past few years but Adriana is the first one to actually help me significantly. It's only been a few weeks and I've gotten more from my time with her than I have over the past 3 years combined. She's compassionate, honest, and actually talks to me, not at me."

    Anonymous Client

  • "I started therapy with Adriana for a few reasons including anxiety, self-esteem issues, as well as adjusting into a new stage of life. From our initial session, I was confident in her abilities because of her qualifications, approach, and nonjudgmental personality. Adriana is very empathetic, a great listener, validates my feelings, and also asks meaningful questions to drive healing and get to the root of problems. She is warm and friendly, and made me feel so comfortable even during the hard conversations. Thanks to Adriana’s support, my mental health has improved tremendously, I’ve gotten more confident in setting and keeping boundaries, and learned better ways to cope with my anxiety. Strongly recommend!"

    Anonymous Client

  • "Adriana has been wonderful to me. I felt like from the first time we started talking she just 'got me' and knew how I felt. She's also very nice and compassionate which really helps someone with severe anxiety feel safe."
