Individuals

Adam works primarily with adults who are struggling with:

• Compulsive or addictive behaviors

• Shame, secrecy, or internal conflict

• Emotional disconnection or numbing

• Anxiety, stress, and difficulty regulating emotions

Many clients come to Adam after realizing that insight alone hasn’t been enough. Therapy focuses on helping clients interrupt old patterns, tolerate discomfort differently, and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others.

Couples

• Struggling to rebuild trust after secrecy, infidelity, or addiction

• Caught in cycles of reactivity, withdrawal, or unresolved resentment
