Are you feeling isolated? Anxious? Overwhelmed? From day-to-day challenges to unexpected life-altering events, a helping hand can be that life preserver in an increasingly stressful time.

Have you been feeling stuck with your negative emotions? Do you still feel sadness and emotional pain after years of treatment? Does it seem that no one understands your problems and that you feel “alone”? There is no simple formula to solve unwanted and unresolved emotions. I work with chronic anxiety and trauma, including generational trauma. In my practice, I emphasize the mind and body connection and incorporate Eastern philosophy to maximize the effectiveness of the treatment.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LCADC) with extensive experience in the treatment of substance use disorders, and co-occurring disorders (psychiatric & biomedical). I am an empathic, culturally sensitive practitioner who understands that the process of finding someone who understands life situations may become overwhelming. I work with each of my clients to make sure that they get the support they need to process their feelings and emotions. I specialize in adults who experience difficulties with substance use disorders, anxiety, depression, and trauma.

I believe that a strong and positive therapeutic relationship can help you overcome challenges and envision new possibilities. My approach is warm, engaging, and collaborative.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, or unhealed trauma, therapy can be a safe space to feel supported and discover new tools.

Hello! My name is Angela, and I want to thank you for prioritizing your mental health and wellness. I enjoy working with people who need support in managing their anxiety and depression, healing trauma and relationship issues, and accepting themselves fully. We live in a world that constantly tells us we are not enough, and I understand how disheartening that can be. My power lies in my ability to listen to others with a non-judgmental ear as they discuss their struggles and hardships. It is rewarding to be able to serve others in this way.

There are times in life we all need someone to talk to. Whether you struggle with anxiety or depression or are trying to cope with a recent change or loss, no concern is too big to work through together. I will provide a safe, comfortable, private space for you to unload your worries, untangle your conflicts, and plan and dream for your future. Most importantly, I will listen to you, respect you, and care about you. I look forward to hearing your story, and helping you craft the next chapter.

You want more than mediocre cookie-cutter therapy. You want therapy that is personalized for you and about you. You want therapy that fits into your stressful life.

I have had the pleasure of working with a varied clientele. For many years I have built rapport with and facilitated the progress of youth who are on the spectrum, who have attention disorders, who struggled with emotion regulation, who are mute, who are transgender, and have exhibited self-harming behaviors. I have also worked with families as a parent coach and as a provider of psycho-education. Many of my adult clients have had issues with abandonment, attachment, trauma, and self-harm. The goals I have facilitated my clients progression in are myriad. However, one goal most of my clients aspire to attain is self-love.

I work with individuals, couples and families, to help them overcome difficulties and build strength. I work with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, difficulties with life transitions, and communication and relational struggles. "Out of your vulnerabilities will come your strength" - Sigmund Freud.

Life gives us so many challenges, from navigating past to current stressors, finding our place in this world, especially realted to minority status and overall feeling heard. Sharing our struggles can be challenging especially with a stranger. In the therapeutic relationship my goal is to let my understanding of the importance of empathy allow my client to feel validated and let their story of their journey be heard.

Before you can even grab your coffee the intrusive thoughts and feelings flood in. The need to do compulsions is on repeat in your mind through out the day. Other people seem connected to their life, moving through it naturally and freely..... You want that too. I hear you!

I want you to learn how to stop answering the "what if..." questions and lean into your values-filled life instead!

I specialize in working with adults who are overwhelmed, stressed, or feeling lost and disoriented. If you’re here, you have taken a powerful step towards finding the balance, clarity, and resilience you deserve. You are ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery, uncover your true potential and are seeking guidance toward a more authentic life. You need to find the right support to fit your needs. We use a collaborative approach rooted in empowerment to provide support and tools for navigating challenging times.

I help adults to make sense of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that result from a dysfunctional or traumatic childhood, and together we identify tools and skills to help you feel hopeful, empowered, and in control of your life. We will explore the source of triggers that cause you to react in ways that are ineffective, and find creative alternatives to encourage and empower you.

My approach to therapy is practical With over 30 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults I focus my energy with clients on the present. I help my clients identify their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that are creating difficulties for them.

If issues from the past are keeping you from managing your present life we will work together to neutralize issues from the past, so you can manage current life stresses with current, more effective techniques.
