About Adina
Adina Tabor is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, licensed in New York, with six years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, and challenges around self-esteem and motivation. She also supports those dealing with parenting strain, sleep problems, anger, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related issues.
Her approach is straightforward and person-focused. She uses talk-based sessions to identify immediate problems and practical next steps. Adina draws on methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness to help people notice patterns and try different responses in daily life.
She also incorporates client-centered listening and elements of dialectical behavior therapy and emotionally-focused work when emotion regulation or relationship patterns are a key concern. Sessions aim to break issues into manageable parts and test small changes between meetings. Progress is tracked by concrete goals rather than vague promises.
Adina has worked across community and clinical settings during her six years of practice. That background informs a practical style that pays attention to work, family, and money pressures as real influences on mental health. She respects differences in identity and offers support around LGBT concerns and attachment or abandonment themes.
People who choose her often want clear steps and steady follow-up. She helps set goals, practices skills during sessions, and adjusts plans based on what works. To start, prospective clients are asked to complete a brief questionnaire and schedule a first appointment.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Adina uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT breaks problems into steps, suggests practical experiments, and helps track whether new habits make daily life easier.She also uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening carefully and shaping sessions around the person's own concerns and goals. That approach is useful for people who need a straightforward, collaborative conversation about next steps. When emotion regulation or intense relationship patterns come up, she often brings dialectical behavior therapy ideas to teach concrete skills for managing strong feelings.
Finding the right method is part of the work. The therapist discusses options with each person and decides together which approaches to emphasize based on goals, preferences, and what shows progress in early sessions.
Confirm the exact online session formats before booking, as the profile does not list specific delivery methods. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving, and busy schedules. It can also allow shorter check-ins when time is tight and reduce travel time so therapy fits into everyday life.
