Adeline

Dr Adeline McTavous

Licensed Professional Clinical Counselors

I have over 20 years of experience working with Children, Adolescents & Adults both Inpatient, Out Patient and a wide array of settings.

About Me

With over two decades of experience, I've had the privilege of supporting children, adolescents, and adults. My background spans diverse settings, meaning I can meet you where you are. We can explore feelings and find practical ways forward together, creating a space where you feel heard. This broad experience makes me a good match for those navigating complex situations at any life stage.

Approach

Years across varied clinical settings taught me to match pace, structure and tone to each person's needs so therapy feels practical and safe. From my office in St. Marys or via secure online sessions in English, I blend assessment-informed conversation with focused skill practice during and between meetings. Sessions often balance checking moods and relationships, trying small shifts, and planning concrete next steps, with clear attention to crises or transitions when they arise. People navigating relationship strain, parenting challenges, or life changes tend to find this steady, collaborative way helpful.
