About Ajiroghene
Ajiroghene "Adrianna" Onwawoma is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with 16 years of experience. She works with adults who are managing relationship stress, grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, caregiving strain, and codependency concerns. Adrianna also addresses parenting challenges, family-of-origin issues, and work-related stress.
Adrianna uses several evidence-informed approaches to guide sessions. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding. Attachment-Based ideas inform work on abandonment and connection worries. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used for emotion regulation and coping when feelings feel overwhelming.
Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and practical steps. She helps clients identify values, set boundaries, and practice communication skills. For someone stuck in people-pleasing or leaning toward caretaking at their own expense, Adrianna works on small, doable changes that build confidence and choice.
Her background includes a master’s degree in counseling from Regent University and extensive clinical practice. Adrianna has supported people facing cancer caregiving, first-responder stress, disruptive mood concerns, and relationship rupture and repair. She blends approaches rather than using only one method.
People can expect straightforward conversation, skill practice, and problem-focused planning. Before a first session, she gathers information to shape the work to each person’s situation and goals.
How sessions work
How Adrianna’s approaches translate to online work
Ajiroghene "Adrianna" Onwawoma uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and repetitive relationship patterns.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify thinking patterns that keep problems going and to practice different responses. CBT is helpful for stress, low mood, and changing behaviors such as people-pleasing. Attachment-Based therapy is used to look at how early connection patterns affect current relationships; this work supports those worried about abandonment or attachment wounds.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Adrianna works collaboratively to choose methods that match each person’s goals, needs, and preferences. That means discussing what feels useful and adjusting the plan over time rather than sticking to one strict method.
Practical benefits of remote sessions depend on the options offered at booking. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats, please confirm current online session types before scheduling. Many people find remote sessions fit into work breaks, reduce travel time, and make it easier to keep consistent appointments. Online work can also make it simpler to use short skill-checks, homework, and written exercises between meetings to build new habits.
