Waitlist for new clients
Are you just f-ing exhausted? A car accident left you emotionally paralyzed. An assault shook up your life. A recent medical diagnosis or crisis has you questioning what's next. All the "why" questions are flying through your head and the constant noise drives you nuts. You want things to make sense. You want to feel like yourself again. Most of all, you want to go back in time to the thing that changed your body or your life and do everything in your power to prevent it from happening. The problem is that no one prepared you for this or understands how to help.

Our emotions tell us what is going on in the environment. Sometimes we need help understanding what the emotion is, how we are feeling it, and how to respond to it in a healthy way. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I help clients understand where your emotions and responses are originating from, sort out the accuracy of the messages, and create healthy dialogues that promote positive life changes.
I enjoy working with clients who are going through life changes, whether it be moving to a new city, ending a relationship, or the passing of a loved one.

It’s not uncommon, at some point in our lives, to get to a point where we ask ourselves, “Does it really have to be this way forever? Do I really have to carry this pain for the rest of my life?” You may be experiencing some of this pain in your own life and are wondering how it can get better. Can this stress and anxiety really lessen? Do I have to go through all this alone? I want deeper more meaningful relationships, but how do I go about having that? Whether you’re feeling this pain alone or in relationship with another, you may be longing for the support of another to help make sense of what is happening.

Hello, I'm Angela. I began my career in marriage and family therapy after raising three children and following my military husband around the world. My journey into this field was driven by a deep desire to support military families, including couples counseling, divorce, and blended families. For several years, I concentrated heavily in this area, and in the last three years, I have shifted my focus to working with military veterans, particularly in trauma work. Additionally, I have expanded my practice to counsel a wider population of people through online formats.
