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 strain, family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, stress and anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, career concerns, mood disorders, and major life changes.
Adrianna emphasizes practical, conversational work. Sessions focus on clear goals and specific steps to manage feelings and reactions. She draws on a mix of approaches rather than a single method, so conversations can include skill practice, understanding past patterns, and building better day-to-day coping habits.
Her approach uses therapies that help people notice thoughts, feelings, and attachment patterns, then try different ways of responding. That can mean learning behavior-based strategies to change unhelpful thinking, practicing emotion regulation skills, or exploring how early relationships shape current patterns. The emphasis is on what someone can do differently between sessions.
Adrianna has supported people through grief, caregiver stress, blended family issues, cancer-related distress, and first responder concerns. She also works with people dealing with abandonment, codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, and disruptive mood issues in youth as part of broader family concerns.
Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. The therapist helps clients set realistic steps and checks progress regularly. To start, readers are invited to use the site's matching process and schedule an initial appointment.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
A few of the main methods she uses are described simply so you know what to expect. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose values-based actions. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and getting unstuck from unhelpful patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with behavior changes, which can reduce anger, anxiety, and depressive symptoms. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current reactions and communication, which can be helpful for relationship problems and recurring conflict.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose approaches that match goals and preferences. That means trying strategies, noting what helps, and adjusting the plan rather than committing to a single technique up front.
