Adenia Perez

Adenia Perez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who uses mindfulness as a core part of her approach. She centers short, practical practices and clear conversation to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and low self-esteem. Adenia draws on eleven years of clinical work to guide clients toward small, manageable changes.

She received a Bachelor of Arts in social work from Lehman College and a Master of Social Work from Hunter College. Adenia has worked in nonprofits, schools, and community settings. That variety shaped a straightforward style that focuses on real life challenges and real steps forward.

In sessions she blends mindfulness with acceptance and commitment ideas to help people notice difficult thoughts without being driven by them. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques and client-centered listening to clarify patterns and test new behaviors. Dialectical behavior elements appear when emotional regulation skills are needed.

Adenia helps people who are navigating parenting strain, career stress, caregiving burnout, and major life changes. She also addresses compassion fatigue, ADHD-related difficulties, anger, and relationship communication problems. Practical skills and brief experiments are common tools in her work.

She offers therapy in English and Spanish and accepts international clients. Her tone is direct and encouraging; she aims to make the first steps feel doable. To begin, clients follow the site’s Start Therapy process and schedule a time to meet.

How mindfulness and practical therapies work online

Adenia often uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people slow down and notice thoughts and feelings with less reactivity. Mindfulness practices are simple and can include brief breathing or attention exercises that help reduce overwhelm and support clearer choices.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which helps people clarify what matters to them and take steps that match those values, even when uncomfortable feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot patterns of thinking that keep problems going and to try small behavior experiments to test new ways of coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try techniques, and adjust based on what feels useful. This is a collaborative process focused on what helps in daily life.

The profile does not specify the exact online session formats offered, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, and caregiving schedules. Other practical benefits include shorter check-ins when needed, options that avoid travel time, and the ability to use mindfulness exercises during ordinary routines.
