About Ajiroghene

Ajiroghene "Adrianna" Onwawoma is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with 16 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing relationship struggles, family challenges, trauma and abuse, grief, anxiety, depression, parenting stress, and burnout. Adrianna uses direct, practical methods to help people handle day-to-day problems and stronger emotional issues.

Adrianna takes an approach that focuses on feelings, attachment patterns, and workable skills. She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to look at how emotions shape close connections. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses.

Her style centers on clear goals and steady steps. Sessions often involve naming difficult feelings, looking at how past relationships affect the present, and practicing small behavior changes. Adrianna pays attention to patterns such as abandonment, codependency, communication problems, and blended family issues.

She has worked with people coping with major life events including cancer, caregiving stress, disaster-related loss, and divorce. Adrianna also supports those dealing with mood conditions such as bipolar disorder and disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD), alongside more common issues like anger, self-esteem, and career stress.

Adrianna offers care in English and bases her practice in South Carolina. Her sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session through the site's online process.

How her approaches translate to online work

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and work with strong emotions and attachment patterns. Online sessions can be used to notice interactional habits and practice new ways of relating. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing values-based actions; it supports work on stress, anxiety, and commitment issues in short exercises and homework tasks.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try different tools, and adjust methods based on what the client finds useful. Decisions about which approach to use come from talking through needs and preferences together.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekday or work break, reduce travel time, or allow brief check-ins when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Licensed professionals can guide how to make remote sessions practical for your schedule and goals.
