Getting to know Dr. Adriana Hyams

Dr. Adriana Hyams helps adults and older adults find steadiness, meaning, and practical relief during times of emotional distress, health challenges, and life transitions. Practicing at LifeStance Health, she serves patients across Rhode Island and offers thoughtful, evidence-based care for adults and seniors seeking support for anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns. Her work is grounded in creating a collaborative, respectful space where patients feel understood and empowered to make lasting changes. Dr. Hyams is especially passionate about helping individuals navigate later-life and midlife transitions, including coping with chronic medical conditions, pain, hearing loss, tinnitus, terminal illness, and complex grief. As a psychologist with a strong focus on health psychology and aging, she supports patients as they adjust to physical changes, shifting roles, and questions of identity or purpose. Her approach balances clinical skill with compassion, helping patients build resilience while addressing both emotional and physical aspects of well-being. Her clinical specialties include anxiety disorders, depression, and trauma-related conditions, with additional areas of expertise that extend beyond these core concerns. She works with adults and seniors and has experience supporting LGBTQ+ individuals and military members and veterans. Treatment may include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and evidence-based couples counseling approaches, selected thoughtfully to align with each patient's goals and needs. Adriana Hyams also offers individual therapy, couples therapy, and group therapy as part of her practice. Outside of clinical work, Dr. Hyams enjoys spending time with friends and family, reading both fiction and nonfiction, watching movies and television, and expressing creativity through art and music. She also values time outdoors and can often be found hiking, kayaking, or traveling when she is able.
