Life can sometimes feel like an enigma, without a manual to guide us. We look around and see others seemingly having it all together, which can make us question our own sense of belonging. Self-doubt creeps in, and we may feel unheard and unseen. But now, you've reached a point where you no longer want to carry these burdens. You're ready to reclaim your confidence, establish healthy boundaries, and find your voice. Together, let's take that crucial first step toward a brighter future. If those words strike a chord with you, then we might be a great fit!

The past can get in the way of living the life you truly desire. This can feel like a deep sense of unworthiness or a fear of being who you really are and asking for what you really want. Do you get lost in worrying? Or caught in the same patterns not knowing how to break the cycle? Instead of feeling calm and joy, you find yourself emotionally spiraling, judging and trying to gain control of every moment. It can be hard to trust that things are going to be ok or that you will be able to handle it if things are not ok.

Hello, and welcome to my PATH profile. My name is Jacqueline Angeles and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist. I have been licensed for 6.5 years and practicing for 14 years in the mental health profession. My approach to therapy is to facilitate, mental, emotional, behavioral and social health to optimize your functioning at home, work, school and the community.

Are you uncomfortable in social situations, or experiencing conflict in important relationships? Do you struggle with unwanted habits? My practice is dedicated to assisting you to resolve emotional and behavioral issues that interfere with optimal functioning. By acquiring tools to help manage your moods and feelings, you can loosen compulsive patterns and achieve greater self-acceptance. I work collaboratively with my clients and strive to develop a partnership that begins with listening.

I imagine you are here because you are seeking help. That takes bravery and courage; it takes true faith. It also could mean that you are worried about feeling exposed and vulnerable, and that can be overwhelming. It means you are asking someone you don't know to take a look at your life. And, it might cause you to worry about being judged in the process. I want you to know that therapy is a safe place. It's place you can go to express yourself, share and get the help you want to make the decisions you need to get your life back on track.

When problem patterns of behaviors are identified it may be the spark that can lead a person into therapy. Drug abuse, alcohol or other problematic behaviors may have been a way of coping with unmanaged issues but we realize that the original problems still exist and often become worse. Learn about your mental health concerns and addiction and you will learn about yourself. Making changes in our life begins by recognizing that changes need to occur. Working with the right therapist can help you learn and apply new and adaptive coping skills to identify and maintain a life worth living. HIPAA compliant Telehealth services available.

Life can feel overwhelming and unmanageable at times. Often those feelings can seep into your relationships and daily life, creating conflict and confusion. You can begin to question your worth and value to yourself and others, and you can begin to see everything through the lens of those feelings. The ways in which you try to cope with those feelings are often linked to experiences in your past, and they are likely keeping you from creating the fulfilling and meaningful present you desperately want.

Using humor, authenticity, and unwavering compassion, I approach healing and recovery from a place of empowered vulnerability. I acknowledge the multitude of complexities that come with the human condition and the various systemic barriers, developmental traumas, and life stressors that can impact an individual and perpetuate suffering. Rooted in advocacy and social justice, I collaborate with clients and creatively explore ways for us to fully embody their strengths and apply them harmoniously to heal emotional wounds that have kept them from fully participating in their lives.

Life's stressors can feel overwhelming, and sometimes downright debilitating. Many of us struggle with managing obligations in our personal and professional lives. This can leave one feeling anxious, depressed, fearful, hopeless and distraught. Therapy can provide a safe and non-judgmental environment in which to unpack and unload some of the emotional baggage that has been weighing you down. I offer a warm, supportive, non-judgmental approach, and believe a strong therapeutic relationship is key.

You may be feeling sad, anxious, overwhelmed, or confused. You may be experiencing a difficult life transition or feel that something is missing in your life. It is important to find a therapist with whom you have a good fit, a feeling that your therapist "gets" you in order to develop the trust necessary in a therapeutic relationship. I have over 35 years of experience helping people in a safe, non-judgmental environment. It is through feeling understood that we come to understand ourselves better.

Life can be complicated, full of change and challenges. Although we have all come up with ways get through these times or cope, sometimes challenges persist, resurface or feel overwhelming. Significant change requires deep personal examination, something difficult to do on our own. Psychotherapy is an effective way to help us understand our behavior and its connection to our inner emotional experience. It helps to resolve common problems that often impact our daily functioning including depression, anxiety, stress, relationship issues, bereavement, and difficult life phases. Psychotherapy is a supportive process promoting exploration, growth and change.
