Adam Birkenstock

Hello! I’m Adam, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 12 years of experience supporting adults, adolescents, and families. While my experience is broad, I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ people, individuals with new or worsening anxiety, and those looking for support in their careers. I ground my work in evidence-based and evidence-supported practices, clinical integrity, and a strong belief that care should be individualized, affirming, practical, and holistic.

I often use person-centered, strength-based, and CBT approaches to help you build towards a change that is personal, actionable, and approachable. Typically, we'll identify the challenges you face and explore what's worked for you and what hasn't. Then we'll use a best-fit approach to build and strengthen the skills you need to put these challenges behind you.

I work primarily with clients struggling with issues of identity, anxiety, and work-related stress who are looking to bring balance, integration, and confidence into their daily lives. Together, we will explore the issue that brought you to therapy and how it fits into your life over all. Most of my clients find relief, lessened symptoms, and greater life satisfaction from ongoing therapy.
