About Ajiroghene

Ajiroghene "Adrianna" Onwawoma is a Licensed Professional Counselor based in South Carolina. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and relationship or family concerns. Adrianna aims to support practical changes that make everyday life easier and more manageable.

She brings 16 years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on clear, down-to-earth work. Adrianna uses methods that help clients name what matters, build steady coping skills, and make choices that reflect their values. Her background includes work with people navigating parenting challenges, career stress, compassion fatigue, and illnesses that affect family life.

Adrianna uses several evidence-informed approaches to shape the work. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take committed action. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and practice different behaviors. Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas guide how she builds trust and connection in sessions.

Her style is warm, direct, and nonjudgmental. Sessions focus on what a person needs now - practical tools, perspective shifts, and steady emotional support. Adrianna also addresses specific issues like codependency, abandonment, blended family dynamics, and caregiver stress in straightforward terms.

If someone wants to start, she asks for basic background and goals so early sessions can target immediate concerns. The aim is steady progress through realistic steps rather than quick fixes.

How her approaches shape online work

Ajiroghene "Adrianna" Onwawoma often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, which can reduce avoidance and increase purpose. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relational patterns and how they affect current connections, helping people build more secure ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Adrianna talks with each person about their goals and what feels most helpful. Together they try methods and adjust the focus as needed so the work fits the client’s needs and preferences.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by cutting travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or offering options when being on camera is difficult. Working this way still supports skill practice, clearer thinking, and steady emotional work, while tailoring the pace to a person’s daily routine.
