My name is Adriana Arteta and I have 11 years of experience. I have worked with many different populations and now I am focusing now on adult individual therapy.
I’ve very open minded and calm. I try to meet my clients where they are and gain a better understanding of goals they would like to reach or areas of their life they may be struggling to cope with.
People come to therapy for many reasons. Some are struggling with anxiety, OCD, stress, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Others are navigating life transitions such as starting college, entering adulthood, changing careers, becoming a parent, caring for aging parents, or moving through perimenopause and menopause. Sometimes there isn’t a single crisis. Instead, there is a growing sense that life feels harder than it should, or that old ways of coping are no longer working.
I work with teens, young adults, and adults who are trying to manage the demands of everyday life while carrying a great deal beneath the surface. Many are bright, capable, and caring people who find themselves overthinking, emotionally exhausted, distracted, stuck in patterns of worry, or struggling to make space for their own needs. Together, we work to better understand what is keeping them stuck, develop practical tools, and create meaningful changes that support a more balanced and fulfilling life.
I strive to create a space where clients feel safe, heard, supported, and empowered to grow. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in honesty, compassion, and accountability. I value building a strong therapeutic relationship and believe that healing happens when clients feel both understood and gently challenged.
I work with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, chronic illness, relationship challenges, life transitions, stress, and self-esteem concerns. I also enjoy supporting clients who are coping with family conflict, workplace stress, attachment concerns, and emotional overwhelm.
Clients can expect me to be supportive, validating, and down to earth, while also helping them explore patterns, build coping skills, strengthen boundaries, and move toward meaningful change. My goal is for clients to leave sessions feeling more grounded, clear, and connected to themselves.
