Adriane Barroso, Ph.D.
Licensed Psychologist & Psychoanalyst. Clinical Director.

Grief • Life Transitions • Crisis • Trauma • Depression • 

I’m Adriane, a psychologist and psychoanalyst with two decades of experience working with people who are going through tough, often life-altering moments—loss, upheaval, depression, or just feeling stuck in ways that don’t have easy answers. I value genuine conversation and the complexities each person brings into the room. I’ve lived and worked across Brazil, Ecuador, Portugal, and the U.S., and I know firsthand how important it is to be understood, not just personally, but culturally. I offer sessions in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, and create a space for people from all backgrounds. My style is warm but straightforward.

​

​Who I Work With

• Teenagers and adults who are navigating trauma, grief, significant life transitions, and emotional overwhelm.

• Individuals seeking a deep, humanistic therapy style outside of traditional psychiatric models

• People needing culturally informed care, especially those who feel unseen by conventional systems

 

How I Help

My work is primarily based on psychoanalytic depth, with a strong emphasis on human presence. I want to help you feel heard and process moments that matter most: when grief, transition, or vulnerability press hardest.
