WHO ADRIAN WORKS WITH

ADRIAN'S APPROACH

Adrian's therapy is relational first, prioritizing mental health support by building trust and a shared understanding of what is actually happening before moving into deeper processing or structured modalities. Sessions are emergent and client-led, with structure added when it serves the work.

He draws on values clarification, strengths-based framing, attachment theory, and trauma-informed practice, integrating these approaches to enhance neurodivergent therapy. For clients navigating neurodivergence, he pays close attention to sensory experience, nervous system patterns, and how standard therapeutic methods can be inaccessible or dysregulating.

His background in high-performance athletics provides him with a unique lens on identity, resilience, and the particular grief that arises when a defining part of oneself shifts or ends, making his insights valuable in relationship counselling.
