Adina Tabor, LICSW, LCSW

Adina Tabor is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with six years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. She also supports those dealing with relationship struggles, grief, intimacy concerns, and issues around self-esteem and motivation.

Her approach is straightforward and respectful. She listens without judgment and adapts conversations to each person’s needs. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between meetings as well as clearer ways to think about problems.

Adina uses methods drawn from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral ideas, and mindfulness practices. That means she centers the person’s goals, looks for patterns in thoughts and behaviors, and introduces simple attention and breathing skills when helpful. She also draws on elements of dialectical behavior and emotionally-focused approaches when emotions or relationships are central concerns.

She has supported people with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, parenting stress, caregiving strain, ADHD, sleep problems, and career questions. She pays attention to attachment, abandonment fears, codependency, and issues around body image and eating.

Adina practices in the District of Columbia and offers sessions in English. Starting therapy with her begins with a short questionnaire and scheduling steps so people can match their needs to her style.

Approaches that guide online work and progress

Adina draws on client-centered methods that make your goals central and invite you to shape the work. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting what matters most, and helping you decide the next steps.

She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and try small experiments that can change how you feel. These steps are practical and easy to practice between sessions for concerns like anxiety, low mood, and sleep problems.

Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used when strong emotions or impulsive reactions are a challenge. These skills teach concrete ways to manage intense feelings, improve distress tolerance, and strengthen emotion regulation.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice is revisited over time as progress and priorities shift.

Practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions into a busy day and keeping momentum between appointments. Because session formats are not listed in the biography, confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online work helpful for regular check-ins, focused skills practice, and maintaining continuity when schedules are tight.
