How Adele uses CBT, mindfulness, and solution-focused work online
Adele works with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new behaviors. CBT helps with anxiety, depression, anger, and repetitive thoughts by breaking problems into smaller, changeable parts.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices. These help people notice intense feelings without automatically reacting and can reduce reactivity in heated moments.
Solution-Focused Therapy appears as brief, action-oriented steps. It focuses on what the client wants to see change and builds small, measurable strategies to reach those goals.
Choosing a method is collaborative. Adele will talk with the client about goals, current struggles, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to focus on skills training, mindfulness practice, short-term problem solving, or a mix of approaches.
Confirm the current session formats before booking. The practical benefit of online work is that it can fit into a busy life more easily - sessions may be scheduled around work breaks, avoid travel time, or let someone check in from a quieter spot. Some approaches work well when sessions are focused on skills practice or short check-ins, while others use longer conversations and exercises across several sessions.
