About Adrianne
Adrianne Garrett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Alabama with eight years of experience. She works with adults on relationship strain, parenting stress, anger, bipolar disorder, and depression. Her profile notes additional focus on attachment and abandonment concerns, communication and control issues, and life transitions such as divorce and separation.
She prefers a person-centered stance that lets clients take an active role in sessions. That means she encourages people to notice their own behaviors and patterns so they can make practical changes. She expects commitment to the work and sets clear expectations for progress and participation.
In sessions she balances openness with structure. Clients can lead parts of the conversation while she offers direction when needed. She describes her style as relaxed but goal-oriented, aiming to help people use tools to manage mood and relationships more effectively.
Her background includes work with adults experiencing severe mental health crises, and earlier experience with children and adolescents with serious diagnoses. Before counseling she studied software engineering at undergraduate level, and she often draws on straightforward, practical ways to approach problems.

How sessions work
Evidence-informed approaches for relationship and mood work
Adrianne describes her primary approach as person-centered care, which focuses on listening, supporting the client’s own insights, and encouraging personal responsibility for change. This approach is useful for relationship stress, parenting concerns, and mood management because it foregrounds the client’s perspective and choices.She also works with evidence-based techniques that help people notice behavior patterns and learn concrete skills. For example, behavioral strategies can break cycles of reactivity in anger and mood disorders by changing what a person does in response to triggers. Communication-focused work helps people develop clearer ways to express needs and set boundaries in strained relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. She will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit best with their goals, concerns, and preferences. That means you and the therapist adjust methods as needed over time rather than committing to one single technique up front.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and offer options for people who prefer not to use video during every visit.
