About Adam

LMFT Adam Poll has 25 years of clinical experience in Utah helping people with stress, anxiety, addictions, family and parenting challenges, and anger. He offers short, direct sessions that focus on concrete problems and steps people can use between appointments.

Adam works with adults across the lifespan, including young adults and older adults. He addresses attachment patterns, communication problems, life purpose questions, and the emotional fallout of divorce or separation. He also supports people facing substance use, smoking cessation, eating-related issues, and the specific challenges of autism and Asperger syndrome.

Sessions emphasize clear problem-solving and straightforward interpersonal work. He listens closely to what people report, then helps identify small changes to try and specific skills to practice. The work often includes talking through family-of-origin wounds, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and ways to manage anger in daily life.

Adam brings experience with aging and geriatric issues, control and avoidant personality concerns, fatherhood and parenting stress, and financial or life-stage transitions. He integrates approaches that match the presenting issue rather than using a single method for everyone.

People who want to begin are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.

How evidence-based approaches work in online sessions

Adam uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical changes. One approach focuses on skills for managing anxiety and stress by teaching breathing, coping strategies, and stepwise exposure to feared situations. Another approach addresses addictions and substance concerns through structured planning, relapse prevention skills, and problem-solving to change routines and triggers.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. The therapist and client review goals, symptoms, and preferences together and choose techniques that fit the person’s needs. That collaboration may mean trying a skill for a few sessions and adjusting the plan based on what helps.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking since formats were not listed in the original biography. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy lives by removing commute time, allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or enabling sessions when travel or mobility is difficult. Online work can also make it easier to practice real-world skills between meetings and to involve family scheduling without needing to travel.
