About Adrian
Adrian Romo is a licensed marriage and family therapist who centers his work around Narrative approaches. He brings 16 years of clinical experience and focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. He meets people where they are and aims to help them feel heard and understood.
Adrian draws on Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from the problems that trouble them. He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered methods to guide conversations about values, choices, and personal stories.
Background and approach
These approaches are used in simple, practical ways during sessions rather than as abstract labels. People often come for help with abandonment, attachment struggles, communication problems, or issues around commitment and codependency. Adrian also supports those facing body image, eating-related concerns, substance use, dissociation, and the upheaval of divorce and separation.
He frames these issues as parts of a person’s story that can be reworked over time. Sessions involve direct conversation, targeted skills practice, and gentle reflection. Adrian adapts the pace and focus to each person’s needs, helping clients try different ways of responding to stress and relationships.
Progress is paced to fit what feels workable for the individual. Adrian is licensed in Nevada and California as an LMFT. He offers therapy in English and works with adults seeking practical, story-focused therapy to address emotional and relational problems.

How Narrative and Values-Based Work Translates Online
Adrian commonly uses Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from the problems they face and to revise the stories that shape daily life. Narrative work focuses on the language people use about themselves and what alternative stories might make more room for hope or action. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, complements that by helping people notice their values and take small steps toward them even when feelings are difficult. ACT is often used for anxiety, stress, and motivation struggles.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Adrian treats therapy as a collaborative process and will talk with each person about what feels useful. He helps decide whether narrative exploration, ACT-based experiments, or a client-centered listening approach fits best for the issue at hand and for the person’s goals.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and exercises that use facial cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, ongoing coaching-style support, or people who prefer writing their thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping the focus on clear goals and practical steps.
