About

Hi, I am Seraina Adames

me

Born and raised in Switzerland, I am passionate about languages, culture, traveling, and studying. My international upbringing guided my passions and ultimately led me to work with people in an intimate and uplifting way. 

After completing a Master of Science in Clinical Psychology, I was trained for an additional four years in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy – a school of therapy to help people reframe their thoughts, resulting behaviors and emotions. I then worked as a Psychologist in Switzerland before moving to California to continue my professional journey. I have worked in the mental health and addiction fields, as well as in physical health settings, teaching and research. As I was the Assistant Clinical Director at a highly rated residential substance use abuse treatment center in California, I developed excellent judgment, team-building, motivational and leadership skills. Before going on maternity leave, I was promoted to the Interim Clinical Director position.

I am direct, goal-oriented, and solution-focused in my work, maintaining empathy and being a support in your time of need. 

I will help you:

  • Define your goals
  • Remove any obstacles
  • Trust yourself
  • Utilize the resources available
  • Build resilience and strength 
  • Keep you on a timeline
  • See change in your life and relationships

You are your expert; let me help you execute your skills and move towards your desired quality of life.

Let someday be today. Reach out to me now by pressing here.
