Adrienne Blume

Adrienne Blume, LICSW, LCSW, helps people facing career questions and big life changes. She meets people who feel stuck, overwhelmed by past experiences, or unsure about what matters next. Her approach aims to create a genuine working relationship where clients can begin to sort through what feels meaningful to them.

Adrienne uses an experiential style that focuses on active dialogue in the session. She listens for patterns from past relationships and attachment wounds that shape current behavior and decisions. She also addresses issues like guilt, shame, post-traumatic stress, grief, and identity concerns in practical ways.

In sessions she blends practical skill work with humanistic and existential conversations. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to build skills for coping and decision making. The goal is to help people clarify priorities and take manageable steps toward change.

Her background includes six years of clinical experience and licensure as a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in West Virginia and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Virginia. She practices from Pennsylvania and conducts therapy in English.

Adrienne invites people who want a more authentic life or clearer career direction to begin with a short conversation and a matching questionnaire. She focuses on what matters most to each person and helps shape a plan that fits their day-to-day life.

How Adrienne’s approaches translate to online work

Adrienne combines experiential conversation with skill-focused and cognitive behavioral methods. Experiential work emphasizes in-session dialogue and noticing patterns in feelings and behavior, which can help with identity questions and relationship patterns. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on building practical coping skills and changing unhelpful thinking, useful for managing stress and decision making around career and life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client review needs, goals, and preferences and choose which methods to try. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what actually helps the person move forward.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online therapy useful because it can fit more easily into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. A mix of reflective conversation and concrete skill practice can be delivered remotely, and the focus will remain on actionable steps that fit the client’s daily life.
