Adrianna Powell, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (They/Them) | Adults | In person in Champaign and telehealth across Illinois
Come as you are
I'm a queer, neurodivergent therapist offering a space where you can show up as you are, whether that's messy, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start. I know how exhausting it can be to constantly explain yourself or mask just to feel understood. Here, you don't have to.
We'll unpack what's feeling heavy, build genuine confidence, and practice practical tools for navigating difficult emotions and situations. I draw on mindfulness and body-based approaches, because trauma doesn't only live in our memories. It shapes how our nervous system responds today. Together we'll notice those patterns and help your mind and body feel safer.
My work is gender-affirming, neurodivergent-affirming, and trauma-informed. Healing isn't one-size-fits-all, so I tailor our work to your goals, your strengths, and the way your brain works. Whether you're ready to dig into painful experiences or just need support getting through the week, we'll move at a pace that feels right. You don't have to know exactly what you need before reaching out.
Specialties

Owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing that we'll ever do.

Outside the office
I started my career working with kids and families in child welfare. These days, I work primarily with queer adults, helping professionals, and caregivers, many of whom spend so much energy holding space for others that their own needs end up last. Yoga and mindfulness are important parts of my life, and I bring them into our work when they fit for you. I believe rest is essential, not something you have to earn. When I'm not working, I like to spend time outdoors, at concerts, or with my cat, Mochi.
