Hello! My goal, as a therapist, is to walk alongside others with an open heart and mind. My work is a gift and I accept you as you are.

"Life is about change. Sometimes it's painful. Sometimes it's beautiful. But most of the time, it's both." - Lana Lang.

Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, personal relationships? Concerned about finding a therapist who will be a good fit for you? My view of therapy is to come alongside you; to support transformation into the best version of yourself; to allow you to integrate thoughts, feelings, and emotions; to work through old wounds and barriers...so you can learn to use healthier coping skills, better communication skills, and handle conflict. I believe when you feel accepted and supported, then you are more able to risk vulnerability, to look into yourself in order to grow, enjoy being you and have healthier connections.

It's time to put yourself first, reaching out for help is often the hardest part of the therapeutic process. As a Therapist I believe in the importance of providing Clients with a supportive and safe environment where they feel comfortable to explore and understand the thoughts and feelings that may arise when dealing with life challenges. You may be handling these difficulties in ways that are not satisfying or that impact your relationships. Whether you are a parent struggling with your child’s behaviors, a young adult starting with new changes in life, or a survivor of trauma looking for a safe place to heal, I am here to help.

Angela approaches therapy with warmth and acceptance providing the space for her clients to grow and evolve. She focuses strongly on the connection that our body, minds and our environments play on our mental health. She helps guide clients in connecting the pieces that can be causing the disruption leading to anxiety, depression, trauma, etc. through a person-centered approach. She utilizes several different approaches because everyone’s journey is different and her primary focus is meeting clients in the “now” part of their journey.

You did not get hurt alone, and you do not have to heal alone. Whether you are coming to therapy with lots of life stressors, recent traumas, or old wounds, my desire is to listen deeply to you. Often we can feel trapped by ideas of what we're "supposed" to feel, or by the expectations we feel from others. I want to make space for you to get in touch with what's really true for you. I believe that you are the ultimate expert on yourself, and I have deep respect for your inner guidance in navigating life.

My areas of interest are working with individuals and families affected by anxiety, depression, blended homes, ADHD and transitions. I work with individuals and families of all ages.

I am passionate about creating an empathetic, safe, and non-judgmental place for clients to share their story and begin processing so they can experience healing and growth. I believe in working collaboratively with clients to help them meet their goals.

Life involves challenges that can leave us feeling unfulfilled, confused, or even inadequate. Each of us has the qualities and skills to face challenges and improve our lives. We are capable of and worth more than we give ourselves credit for. There are times when our challenges keep us from recognizing this within ourselves, and therapy proves beneficial. If you feel you are not prepared to handle your challenges, let's work together to identify solutions that will work for you and lead in the direction you would like to move.

Do you often feel overwhelmed, confused, or frustrated with your life? Do you feel you have little support? Perhaps you feel on edge and don’t know how to relax? Do you feel there isn’t enough time in the day? Or your world runs on chronic stress? Maybe you’ve noticed these feelings and have even tried ways to challenge them. Jumped into yoga, didn’t work. Read a self-help book, didn’t work. Sought advice from friends. They didn’t understand. Googled your symptoms. Yeah, that was a bad idea. If you find yourself saying yes, then you're looking at the right profile. Let me be your guide to balance and mental wellness.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process between client and therapist, and I am honored to provide a safe space for clients to heal. Through a trauma-focused lens, I appreciate working with clients to help them build insight into the patterns that are holding them back, and to build new, healthier patterns that help them move forward. I am a LGBTQ2IAS+ affirming therapist and believe in the worth of all people. I always take a strength-based approach to therapy and work alongside clients to choose the best modality for them. I look forward to knowing you!

When life becomes stressful we go to our comforts in hopes to fix the problems. At times, we realize the skills that serve us to overcome the unmanageable are no longer healthy or helpful. Life throws us many different directions and can be hard to navigate, through these transitions and stressful experiences, therapy can assist in finding new ways to serve you and follow your directions.

Raise your hand if "you feel different lately. You’re not exactly sad or distressed, but you couldn’t describe yourself as thriving either. You’re just feeling… blah." You're not excited by things that you once enjoyed, you're going through the motions, and doing what you need to do, nothing more. Can I see another hand if you want to be present in life, find the enjoyment, seek meaning, and build connection? We want to show up for ourselves, our partners, our children, and our friends but we need help navigating how to get there.
