Many of us struggle with chronic stress and worry. Often we turn to food for comfort and eat in ways we later regret. Therapy can be a place to brainstorm how to better handle stressful situations. Understanding our unhealthy behaviors is a good starting place to making positive changes. In therapy we can develop a plan with a wide variety of tools to help you clarify your needs, communicate your preferences, create new habits, and set clear limits. I can support you step-by-step as you create changes to improve your health and help you to feel calm, energized, focused, and content.

I am currently providing telehealth (phone or video) appointments. Are you motivated to address family-of-origin, mood, or interpersonal issues in psychotherapy? I enjoy working with clients who want to improve their self-esteem and assertiveness, in particular people who would be considered late social bloomers (including socially awkward/mildly anxious). My ideal client wants to break out of self- or other-imposed limitations so that they can live a full life that is in line with their own sense of sovereignty.

Hello, my name is Angele Suarez, and I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 22 years of experience.
