About Adina
Adina Tabor is a LICSW (Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker) in the District of Columbia and a LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) in New York with six years of clinical experience. She helps people who face stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and challenges with self-esteem. Her work also addresses caregiving stress, codependency, attachment and abandonment concerns, and issues related to trauma and grief.
She uses straightforward conversation to help people notice patterns that cause repeated pain. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings, alongside moments to reflect on feelings and choices. Adina draws on client-centered methods to keep the conversation grounded in each person's priorities.
She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to help identify and test unhelpful thoughts that fuel anxiety and low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are available for learning emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Mindfulness practices are introduced to help with focus and sleep when needed.
Adina aims to work collaboratively rather than directively. She helps people set small, concrete goals such as clearer boundaries, steadier routines, or different ways of responding to conflict. Progress is discussed in simple terms and adjusted as needs change.
People who want to start are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Conversations are conducted in English and Adina does not accept international clients.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's priorities. The therapist reflects what matters to the person and supports decisions rather than imposing a plan. This approach helps when someone needs a clearer sense of their own goals and values.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. Online CBT sessions typically include identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavioral experiments between meetings to test new ways of thinking. This can help with anxiety, low mood, and sleep problems.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotion regulation and handling intense moments. In an online setting these skills are taught and practiced, with the therapist helping a client build a simple toolkit to use during stressful episodes.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk about what feels most useful and try different methods as needed. Goals and techniques are reviewed as work progresses so the plan stays relevant to the client's needs and preferences.
Session formats are not listed here; please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can guide which approaches and scheduling patterns will best fit everyday life.
