Zeree Adams

Zeree Adams is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with 17 years of experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, bipolar mood concerns, depression, and major life changes. She emphasizes practical support and steady guidance during difficult moments.

Her approach begins with listening to each person’s story and noticing strengths they already have. She treats people as the experts on their own lives and works alongside them to set clear, manageable goals. Sessions are straightforward and focused on what a person wants to change or feel differently.

Zeree uses several therapeutic methods to help people build skills and resilience. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thought patterns that get in the way, and on Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotion regulation and coping skills. She also integrates mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity and Internal Family Systems ideas to map inner parts and their roles.

People often come for help with relationships, caregiver stress, identity and attachment questions, adoption and foster care concerns, body image, aging issues, or the effects of trauma and disaster. Zeree aims to make sessions feel practical and manageable, with tools that can be used between meetings.

If someone is considering counseling, she invites them to take the first step. The process starts with a brief matching questionnaire and scheduling, and then moves into collaborative work centered on the person’s goals and pace.

How therapeutic approaches fit into online counseling

Zeree uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy as core tools in her work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors that keep problems going. Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on building emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills for stronger daily coping.

She also brings mindfulness practices into sessions to help reduce reactivity and increase present-moment focus. These methods can support people managing anxiety, depression, bipolar mood concerns, and life transitions. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together; the therapist will collaborate with each person to decide what fits their needs and goals.

If you are considering online therapy, check which session formats are currently offered before booking. The biography does not list specific formats, so confirm whether video or phone sessions are available. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find that remote sessions let them practice skills in the context of everyday life while keeping therapy consistent with their routine.
