About Adina

Adina Tabor, LICSW, LCSW, helps people who are facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship pain, and life transitions. She works with clients dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, intimacy issues, and self-esteem concerns. She also supports people coping with ADHD, compassion fatigue, career questions, and body image or eating-related worries.

Adina keeps conversations direct and respectful. She listens first to understand the problem and then shapes a plan with each person. Sessions focus on practical steps you can try between meetings, plus ways to notice patterns that get in the way of change.

Her approach draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness practices. That means she pays attention to your priorities, helps you test thoughts and behaviors that cause distress, and teaches simple skills to calm or refocus attention.

With six years of clinical experience and licenses in both Washington, D.C. and New York, Adina blends clinical knowledge with everyday language. She aims to make therapy feel useful and realistic for busy lives.

People who meet with her can expect a collaborative process. Appointments are tailored to the issues you bring, whether that is improving communication, managing strong emotions, or rebuilding trust after loss. The first session focuses on what you want to accomplish and a clear plan for next steps.

How Adina’s approaches translate to online work

Adina uses client-centered therapy to follow each person's priorities and build a plan that fits their life. That approach focuses on listening, reflecting what matters to you, and adjusting the pace based on your needs.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood. CBT involves breaking problems into manageable steps, testing new behaviors between sessions, and tracking small wins. Mindfulness therapy is a complementary tool she uses to teach attention and breathing techniques that reduce reactivity and improve focus.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Adina will collaborate with you to decide which methods feel most helpful based on your goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adapts strategies over time so the plan stays relevant.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals often use similar methods online as they do in person, adapting exercises and homework so you can apply them between sessions.
