Compassion, Expertise

Lasting Change.

Healing begins with feeling truly seen. As a therapist, I believe that meaningful change happens when clinical expertise is combined with genuine human connection. My role is not to tell you who to become, but to help you reconnect with the strengths, resilience, and wisdom that already exist within you.

I work with adults, adolescents, couples, and families navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. Every treatment plan is thoughtfully tailored, integrating evidence-based psychotherapy with mindfulness, self-compassion, and nervous system-informed care.

My path to becoming a therapist has been shaped by both professional training and lived experience. Having lived and worked across Brazil, England, New York, Silicon Valley, and Los Angeles, I understand what it means to navigate change, loss, cultural transitions, reinvention, and the complexity of being human. These experiences continue to shape the empathy, curiosity, and perspective I bring into every therapy session.

I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and have pursued advanced training in trauma, Somatic EMDR, Brainspotting, Compassion-Focused Therapy, and Family Systems. As a Stanford University School of Medicine CCARE Compassion Ambassador and Director of Clinical Services, I remain deeply committed to providing care that is both clinically rigorous and profoundly compassionate.

Before becoming a therapist, I founded organizations dedicated to education, leadership, and community-building. Throughout every chapter of my life, one purpose has remained constant: helping people heal, grow, and create lives that feel authentic and meaningful.

Whether you’re seeking relief from emotional pain, healing from trauma, strengthening relationships, or simply wanting to understand yourself more deeply, therapy can become a place where lasting transformation begins.

It would be a privilege to walk alongside you.

Warmly,

Adriana Medeiros
