Adrienne Norwood

(LPHA, LISW-CPS, LCSWS)

About Me

I would like to thank you for reading my profile! I honor your courage to reach out and seek help. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and therapist with over 25 years of experience. I am licensed in several different States to practice and I practice from a Holistic Perspective. It is my belief that you must treat the "whole" person. I incorporate mind, body and spirit into my approach when it comes to assisting others on their journey of healing. It is a journey not a destination. We are always learning, growing, and healing if we choose to do so. Allow me to assist you on your journey of healing and awakening to your Universal Divine Truth. I will assist you by helping you learn to tap into the power within that has always existed! You will discover your true-self and be able to begin creating the life of your dreams. I am both a Spiritual Empowerment (Life) Coach and a Licensed Therapist and can meet either need. Allow me to help you discover the solutions for your life one session at a time!

I work with individuals, groups, couples, and/or families who have experienced everything from child abuse, domestic violence, low self-esteem, bereavement, anxiety, parenting issues, and depression just to mention a few. When providing therapy I utilize a holistic wellness approach and use a variety of modalities when dealing with my clients. I do not see you as "your story, your past, your perceived failures." You are so much more than you realize! Through utilizing several different therapy techniques and years of experience, we will begin to explore underlying causes of what has you out of "alignment" and assist you on your path to healing and wellness!
I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Again, It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Ms. Adrienne is by far the most AMAZING therapist I’ve EVER had... and I have had quite a few. She truly takes the time to get to know you, listens attentively, never judgmental and the KINDEST SOUL! I would recommend her a million times over!

Adrianne made me feel at home in our first session, she has a lovely personality and is great to talk with. I am looking forward to working with her further.

I’ve only had a few sessions with Adrienne but she’s made me feel so much better. I’ve never felt so comfortable or able to share and open up so easily to someone before. Her kindness and understanding radiates through her voice, smile and energy.

Ms. Andrinne is the BEST! I'm very grateful to have her as my therapist! I have a therapist that I actually can trust without having to second guess!

Adrienne is a delightful counselor who really makes you feel heard and valued. Her advice is sound and practical. I was always apprehensive to start therapy, but now I look forward to it every week.

Adrienne has been so far my most exciting therapist. I usually prefer male therapist but she clearly has made me realize over been missing out. I do enjoy that she brings a spiritual dynamic to the equation.

Adrienne has been such a huge part of my growth in the past 3 months. I can see the difference, my family sees I’m working on myself with return, I feel like an improved person. I’m so thankful for her and her guidance, knowledge, and intervention. I can honestly say that the new management skills I have gained are a result of her coaching. I truly enjoy each and every session with her. I always finish my sessions feeling refreshed and understood. So thankful for her!

She’s great!

Written by E.R. on Jul 29, 2020 after counseling with Adrienne for 1 month on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, self esteem, career difficulties, coping with life changes, and coaching

Ms. Adrienne has given me so much love, kindness, and respect since we began speaking with each other. She cares deeply, listens intently, and approaches her work holistically. I look forward to every session we have together and use her words and guidance in my daily life. I could not recommend Ms. Adrienne more highly!

I’ve had several therapists before over the years, but I never felt like they connected with me the way Adrienne does. It never feels too clinical or like I’m being analyzed by her, but instead our meetings feel more conversational and comfortable. She not only actively listens, but she shares her own experiences, which helps to make the conversations more two-sided. I highly recommend!

She is very helpful, patient and understanding. I have been giving myself more grace and she has been walking me though the process. Very warm personality and points you in the right direction. I would definitely recommend her for someone who needs positive affirmations and rebuilding in their lives.

Ms. Norwood is amazing! I needed counseling for years now however I’ve been avoiding it due to fears of the unknown. Ms. Norwood made me feel so comfortable to where me fears were all gone and I was now beginning to look forward to our sessions. I didn’t feel like I was just another patient of hers. She made me feel as though I was her only client. She was always available. Her response time was within minutes. She’s awesome at what she does! This isn’t just a job to her you can clearly tell this is her Passion!

Adrienne has been such a blessing in my life during such a difficult time. I was nervous when joining Better Help but she eased my nerves within our first session! She is able to figure out what I need and work with me on things that come up regularly. She is always available when I need and hears me out even when I'm not sure what to say. Thanks Adrienne!

Ms. Norwood has been great. She made me understand the framework of how life work and that “being in control” isn’t my job. Her showing me this is destroying my anxiety. Thank God for her and the BetterHelp platform for African American Men!
