About Ajiroghene “Adrianna” Onwawoma

Welcome! I am delighted to be here with you. My name is Adrianna Onwawoma. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina and a National Certified Counselor. I graduated with a Master’s Degree in Counseling at Regent University, Virginia.

My dream is that you find true happiness and contentment regardless of life’s challenges. I specialize in working with individuals going through challenging times to navigate through life successfully. In the last ten years, I helped individuals, children, and families work through a variety of issues that include depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, and relationship issues. My therapeutic approach is eclectic and will be specifically tailored for you. I use a variety of techniques such as psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, trauma-focused, motivational, and existential therapies.

I believe in being compassionate, showing warmth, and providing a non-judgmental space that feels safe. I believe that through the establishing of an authentic relationship, you can unravel problems, be empowered, and find the healing you need to transform your life. Let’s get started.

“I really enjoy her even though it’s only been one session. She is a great listener!”

“Ajiroghene has helped me develop my self esteem from the ground up in a way I never even thought was possible. The progress I've made throughout the years has been tough but so worth it.”

“Adrianna has been such a blessing in my life. Through our sessions, she’s helped me learn to truly value myself and show myself grace even when I struggle. She’s taught me to slow down, acknowledge my wins big or small, and see how far I’ve come. She has such a kind heart and always listens with care, creating a safe and welcoming space where I feel heard and understood. I’m so grateful for the support and encouragement she’s given me on this journey.”

“I’ve been with Adrianna for 2 years now and she’s been wonderful! As a chronic people pleaser, she’s really helped me learn how to set healthy boundaries and be more assertive while still nurturing myself.”

“Adrianna is really helping me and my spouse learn to communicate much better”

“The match was great, she understood where I was coming from and gave me perspectives I didn’t even consider. I would love to be matched with her again, if I ever need help again.”

“Have had only had one session with her as of now, but I was extremely pleased with her and can’t wait to continue therapy with her”

“Adrianna was very respectful and she was able to guide me in a way where I was able to understand and apply what we discussed. Very knowledgeable and great experience overall!”

“Adrianna is wonderful in attitude, support, respect and listening. She makes good suggestions and has taught us so much about options in communication. She stays neutral and helps to guide us to healthy practices to better our relationship. We would highly recommend her.”
