I am Angela Farmer, a licensed psychologist with five years of clinical experience. I enjoy working with adolescents and young adults going into adulthood or early into adulthood. My therapeutic goals focus on people who are facing Anger Management, Coping Skills, Codependency, Depression, and Anxiety. The modalities I enjoy using are Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Solution Focused Brief (SFBT), Rational Emotive Behavior (REBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Reality Therapy. My life has not been the easiest, and I feel that helps me to help my clients where they are at that moment.

Alamo Heights, TX 78209
Her work at LifeStance is an “eclectic” mixture of therapies that includes expressive therapies such as art/music/play, narrative therapy, reality therapy, and CBT to name a few.
Ashley is a Licensed Professional Counselor. As a native Tennesean, she earned both her Bachelor’s of Psychology and Master’s of Community Counseling from the University of Tennessee. Her professor once said, “Play is a child’s most natural language.” That phrase, along with her love of the children, solidified Ashley’s career path. A job opportunity called her to Texas where she fell in love with breakfast tacos, blue bonnets and wide open spaces. She worked at an inpatient psychiatric hospital that exposed her to a variety of clinical diagnoses in the child and adolescent population.

I understand that clients are experts in their own lives, but sometimes they need help with unwanted thoughts, symptoms, or behaviors. Reaching out for help can be difficult for all kinds of reasons. I want to reassure you with words from Brené Brown “We don’t have to do all of it alone. We were never meant to." I want to help you work on becoming the best version of yourself. Loneliness, social anxiety, and just dealing with a constantly changing world can sometimes make anyone feel out of control. I want to help give you back that feeling of being in control of your life.

No one seems to understand what you’re going through. It feels like everyone wants something different from you, and no one cares what you want for yourself. Your parents tell you to act like an adult, but then they treat you like a child. Every decision you make feels like it will have a massive impact on your future. Each day at school, you’re forced to navigate a social minefield of potential embarrassment and rejection. You’re constantly torn between who people want you to be and who you actually are. Trying to juggle friendships, dating, grades, parents, and teachers, all while trying to find yourself, is just too much.

Reality Therapy

Is reality therapy evidence-based?

Reality therapy is not well-studied, and it may not be as effective in treating certain mental health conditions when compared with evidence-based treatments like cognitive behavioral or acceptance and commitment therapies. However, some research does indicate that reality therapy might be helpful for people with addiction, and may be effective in treating social anxiety in young people.

How long does reality therapy last?

Reality therapy is less structured when compared with psychoanalysis, for example. Reality therapy is more open-ended and may not be limited to a set number of sessions. It is common for clients to be in therapy for a year or longer and to see their therapist one to two times a week, though the exact schedule and timeline may vary depending on a client’s challenges and progress. Individuals can also practice the principles of reality therapy long after treatment has ended.

Does reality therapy work?

Reality therapy can help a person manage concerns such as eating disorders, addiction, substance use, anxiety, phobias, and relationship difficulties. This type of therapy encourages a person to be accountable for their behaviors. This therapy may offer benefits that are hard to measure. Reality therapy can be useful in one-on-one therapy or in group sessions. This method may be used with children, families, and adults.

What are the limitations of reality therapy?

This therapy is person-centered or client-centered, and the therapist focuses on choices made by the individual in the present day. The therapist privileges the individual’s perspective over others. This format may feel frustrating for individuals seeking a more structured approach; certainly, no one therapy type will work for every client.
