About Adenia

Adenia Perez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with eleven years of clinical experience. She supports people who are making changes in their lives and helps them manage worry, low mood, and the stresses of day-to-day life. She speaks English and Spanish and works from Arizona while also taking international clients.

Adenia draws on practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.

Background and approach

She also uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy and emotionally-focused work to help regulate strong feelings and improve close relationships. Sessions are collaborative and focused on clear, achievable steps. Her background includes work in nonprofits, schools, and community settings.

That variety shaped how she helps people with grief, parenting challenges, compassion fatigue, workplace stress, and ADHD-related concerns. She helps people sort out priorities, manage impulsivity, and build better daily routines. Adenia takes a warm, respectful approach in sessions.

She treats each person’s story as the starting point and highlights strengths they already have. Conversations move toward practical plans that fit a person’s life and values. She values small, steady changes over quick fixes.

Early sessions tend to focus on what matters most and simple skills to reduce distress. Later work may include problem-solving for money and career issues, processing loss, or rehearsing new ways of communicating.

Approaches that guide online care

Adenia often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and try specific behavior changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and day-to-day problem solving where concrete strategies make a difference.

She also uses acceptance and commitment therapy, which focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small steps toward those values even when uncomfortable emotions appear. ACT can help with stress, life changes, and persistent worries that get in the way of living well.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Adenia will listen to your goals and preferences and recommend strategies that fit your needs. The process is collaborative, and plans are adjusted as you try skills and see what helps.

Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match life demands. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill coaching, phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option, and messaging is useful for brief check-ins or ongoing coaching between sessions. These formats make therapy more flexible for busy schedules, caregiving duties, work breaks, or when travel is difficult.
