About Adina
Adina Tabor is a licensed social worker who helps people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting challenges. She draws on six years of clinical experience and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Her approach is respectful and down-to-earth, aimed at making change feel possible rather than overwhelming.
She tailors sessions to each person's needs. Conversations are collaborative and focused on goals the client chooses. That might mean practicing new ways to manage strong emotions, trying simple behavior changes, or working on communication skills that reduce conflict and frustration.
Background and approach
Adina uses a mix of approaches to fit each situation. She often blends client-centered listening with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to help people notice patterns and try different responses. She also draws on techniques for emotion regulation when feelings feel intense.
Parents who are tired, stretched thin, or unsure how to set boundaries can find straightforward support. Adina can help people sort priorities, adjust expectations, and build routines that reduce daily strain. She also addresses issues like grief, sleep problems, and relationship strain in practical ways.
Adina holds a DC LICSW and a New York LCSW and practices in the District of Columbia. She speaks English and offers sessions that match a person’s preferred pace and goals. Taking a first step can feel hard; she aims to make that step easier and more focused.

Therapeutic approaches for online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and meeting each person where they are. It relies on warm, nonjudgmental conversation so clients can talk through priorities and feel heard. Cognitive behavioral therapy or CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and offers clear exercises to change patterns that keep problems going.Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to try methods that fit the problem, goals, and comfort level. That may mean mixing listening-based work with specific CBT exercises or adding mindfulness skills over time to reduce reactivity.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video helps when visual cues matter, while phone sessions can be helpful when internet bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between meetings or use shorter, focused exchanges during a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or daily life while still accessing licensed professionals and consistent support.
