I’m Dr. Adrienne, (Dr. Adrian Fletcher) mob daughter turned psychologist, speaker, and cycle-breaker and I’m here for people and organizations who are done playing small. I know what it means to carry shame, secrets, and survival strategies that once protected you but now keep you stuck. I’ve lived it. I’ve broken it. And today I help others do the same, whether I’m speaking at a conference for leaders or sitting fireside with a circle of entrepreneurs daring to rewrite their legacy. When you bring me in, you are not just booking a speaker. You are inviting someone who has walked through generational silence, dissociation, trauma, and reinvention…and refuses to leave her audience unchanged.
I’m sought out to ignite people who are ready to rise especially entrepreneurs and visionaries. I host intimate weekend experiences where high-achieving founders strip back their armor, confront the shame and stories that still run their nervous systems, and step into their power with clarity, compassion, and strategy. I’m the person people call when they want their teams, community, and mastermind participants to walk away with more than notes: they leave with permission. Permission to tell the truth. Permission to build without apology. Permission to create an empire rooted in integrity, nervous-system wisdom, and a story that finally belongs to them (and one that they are no longer ashamed of)!
Services
Hope is not theory for me, it is survival.
I have walked through the fire (and in many ways still am), and yet I always return to love and to carrying light. I bridge worlds: clinicians and survivors, speakers and storytellers, professional experience and lived experience. Through entrepreneurial and executive coaching, keynote speaking, mentorship programs, teaching, and believe it or not art, I help people reclaim their power and rewrite their story. When we stand in our truth, we don’t just shine…we blaze a brand new trail.
The Trailblazer Catalyst Speaker
Media Expert
I speak to inspire, challenge, and ignite transformation. My signature talks include:
“Light Is the Absence of Darkness…Or Is It?”- Exploring truth, resilience, and redefining what it means to rise.
“Purpose or Possibility: That Is the Question”- Unpacking how mindset shapes the future you create.
“The L.O.V.E Formula for Success”- A practical, heart-centered framework for achieving authentic success.
I was trained by one of the most respected voices in the speaking industry, Orly Amor, whose mentorship helped refine my message and amplify my impact on global stages. I accept media opportunities that are aligned with my values.
Consultant & Continuing Education Provider
In addition to speaking, I provide consultation to survivors, therapists, and private practice centers, offering guidance rooted in both clinical expertise and lived experience. I design and lead continuing education workshops for organizations such as Leading Edge Seminars, The Zur Institute, and the Arizona Trauma Institute, among others.
My approach is holistic, experiential, and stigma-breaking—helping professionals expand their understanding of trauma and dissociation while equipping survivors and practitioners alike with practical tools for healing and growth.
Dissociative Community Mentorship Program:
Trailblazing the Way
Trailblazing the Way formerly known as Braving the Way was a dissociative community mentorship program that ran successfully for three years. My parts and I deeply valued the opportunity to facilitate and connect with so many courageous DID systems during that time. The program was originally led by Adge17 (a name my fellow dissociatives will instantly recognize).
In the summer of 2024, Adge fused, and our system chose to evolve the program. What began as a live mentorship experience is now being transformed into a self-paced, supportive system/self-help course, designed to bring the same depth and guidance in a way that participants can access from home. This new version will be available for purchase in the Spring of 2026.
Author
Released in November 2022 and later featured in the Los Angeles Times, my poetry collection One Soul, Multiple Expressions: Poems by the Parts explores the many stages of healing and shows how creative expression can help us survive even the most horrific trauma. Amid darkness, it reminds us that healing is possible. My hope has always been to bridge the gap between survivors and practitioners, offering a message of hope, resilience, and connection.
✨ As a gift, you can download one of our poems for free: Different.
Please note: This collection is intended for mature audiences, as it contains mention of trauma and abuse.
An updated edition is in progress for release in late 2026. It will include new poems, updated graphics, refreshed dedications, and an open letter to survivors of trauma reflecting both the beauty and the hardship of public disclosure as well as letters and commentary.
In 2022, I was approached by New Harbinger Publications to develop a workbook for those living with dissociative identity disorder (DID). As the project unfolded, I invited Mabel Rose, with whom I share a deep love and sacred lived experience connection.
While we both live with the condition, her experiences reflect a wider, more relational and globally representative expression of DID. It became clear that real advocacy meant shifting the lead from a clinical voice to a more aligned lived-experience voice.
Mabel is now the lead author on the project, and I will be writing the accompanying clinician resource guide for therapists who plan to use the book collaboratively with their clients or recommend it during the course of treatment.
Alongside this project, I serve as a contributing writer for Psychology Today, offering pieces that weave my personal journey of resilience with the clinical lens I’ve gained as a psychologist.

Podcast Host & Guest
For three seasons, I hosted the Braving the Way with Dr. Fletch podcast, where we held powerful conversations with experts in the mental health community, colleagues, artists, authors, and friends. Together, we explored life with DID, the fight against stigma, and the many ways we can serve and support the community. All episodes remain available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts. Keep an eye out for return Bonus Tracks in 2026 and special guests who have dared to BRAVE THE WAY!
While I’m not returning to hosting my own podcast full-time, I deeply enjoy being a guest on shows that align with my values. As a guest, I bring both professional expertise and lived experience—offering your respective community, insights, and strategies that foster hope, understanding, and empowerment.
If your podcast shares a mission of breaking stigma, amplifying truth, and inspiring transformation, I’d be honored to join the conversation.

A Message of Hope
I have been to the edge of myself and back again, more times than I ever expected a human could endure. Every descent into sheer and utter darkness has taught me the same sacred truth: darkness does not always win. Even when the weight feels unbearable, even when the world goes silent, something inside us keeps insisting we stay alive. I think I have been given more than one second chance at life by the grace of something much bigger than me, and by my innate capacity to fight for my life and to fight for more… I have had to learn to surrender the armor and let go of the fight, and to trust that not everything needs to be a battle, but rather something you pursue with rigor and also grace.
Hope is not fragile; it’s a muscle built in the places we thought would break us. Resilience is not born from ease; it’s forged in the moments we refuse to disappear.
Today, I try to carry this knowing into every room I enter: that healing is possible, that identity can be reclaimed, that light is patient and will always return, and that no story—no matter how complicated or shattered—needs to end up in the shadows.
We do not have to be defined by what hurt us, and I believe the truth can set some people free. For the ones who will not get to experience freedom, it is even more important to speak your truth, as it may indirectly help someone else. Alexander Pope stated that hope springs eternal…
