Adrienne De Vaughn

I know it isn’t always easy to reach out for support, especially when you’ve been trying to manage everything on your own. I work with individuals, couples, and families who are looking for a place to talk openly, work through what’s weighing on them, and figure out what comes next. I see our sessions as your time. I’ll follow your lead, listen without judgment, and gently challenge you when I think it can help you grow. I’m an HBCU-educated therapist, a single mother of twins, and have been doing this work for 17 years. I bring those experiences into the way I connect with clients: with compassion, openness, and an understanding that life can be complicated. If faith is important to you, I’m also happy to incorporate a faith-based approach into our work.

There isn’t one right way to do therapy, and I don’t expect every client to need the same thing from me. Sometimes you may need space to talk, process your feelings, and simply feel heard. Other times, you may feel stuck and want help figuring out what to actually do next. I’m comfortable with both. We can talk through what’s happening, explore patterns that may be holding you back, and break bigger changes into smaller, realistic goals. I’ll meet you where you are while encouraging you to keep moving toward where you want to be.

Our first session is really a chance to get to know each other. I’ll tell you a little about myself, answer any questions you have, and most importantly, I’d love to hear what brought you to therapy and what you’re hoping to get from it. You don’t have to know exactly what you want to work on or where to begin. We can start with what’s happening in your life right now and figure out the rest together.
