About Adrian
Adrian Kim is an LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Indiana with ten years of clinical experience. She helps people handle stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, parenting strains, and compassion fatigue. Adrian also focuses on blended family issues and other family-related concerns when an individual brings them up.
Her approach is straightforward and person-focused. Sessions start by hearing what matters most to the individual and setting clear, practical goals. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to address anxious thoughts and low mood. Skills from dialectical behavior therapy are used when emotions feel overwhelming.
Adrian incorporates client-centered techniques to keep sessions collaborative. Motivational interviewing is used when someone is weighing big changes or struggling to follow through on plans. She explains options and helps people try methods that fit their life and values.
In sessions she talks through coping strategies, communication changes, and small behavior shifts that can reduce daily stress. For parents and stepparents, she addresses common pressures like changing routines, co-parenting tension, and loyalty conflicts in blended households. The focus is on practical steps rather than labels.
People who meet with Adrian can expect clear explanations and concrete homework when it helps. The initial meeting focuses on what the person wants to change and which tools will be most useful for their situation.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and collaborating. The therapist reflects what the person says and helps them decide which goals matter most; this approach is useful when someone wants a respectful, non-directive space to sort priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches simple skills to test worried thoughts and change habits that keep anxiety or low mood going, which can be helpful for stress, anxiety, and depression.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills offer practical ways to manage strong emotions and improve interpersonal effectiveness. These skills are often taught in small steps and practiced between sessions to build tolerance for intense feelings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review goals, try methods that fit the person’s life, and adjust the plan based on what helps. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed prescription.
