I have experience working with adults in recovery from substance use. I have found a deep affinity with the recovery community and feel honored to do that work. I also have years of experience working with youth in different capacities. My thesis in grad school focused on the intersection between Neurodiversity and LGBTQIA+ identities and how this intersection can inform a framework of Belonging as embodied praxis.

I am deeply dedicated to working with children, adolescents, and young adults. My practice prioritizes children and adolescents because personal and professional experiences have shown me that there aren't enough spaces where they can show up as they are and receive attunement and positive regard. I strive to provide a safe space for clients to receive both in support of their journey through life and personal growth/development. As a neurodivergent, first generation college graduate, with a nontraditional family, I enjoy offering therapeutic space to clients with any of those identities/experiences.

Finding a therapist is hard, but finding one you connect with can be even harder. Whether you are looking for additional coping strategies to add to your tool box, currently on the brink of a crisis, or maybe you don't know your “why” but feel as though you need to talk with someone, I would love to sit and listen. My name is Angelica. I am warm, non-judgemental and my approach to therapy is simple, come as you are. Showing up can be hard at times but it allows us the opportunity to build a rapport, reflect together, identify and when necessary confront behaviors that are contributing to our stressors.

Have traumas or other events thrown your life off course? I see my job as helping people get back to their "regularly scheduled lives". Whether you have PTSD, or you are a bereaved parent or someone grieving a recent loss, I believe that with the right amount of understanding and validation, every person can successfully reclaim their lives and find his/her/their purpose again. As a consultant and Adjunct Professor specializing in grief and loss, I realize that not all losses are due to death. Grieving for a multitude of losses, including Learning Disorders, ADHD, and adoption, is my focus of treatment.

I have been working with children and families for more than 30 years. My approach is strength based and collaborative - my goal is to truly hear and support each person I work with whether individually or in a family. My "wheelhouse" is working with children, families and adults who have experienced developmental trauma. I use neuroscience, attachment and developmental approaches to work with trauma as it impacts children, adults, families, couples and individuals.

Talking with someone who listens respectfully and skillfully helps people make positive changes in their lives.

I am a queer, pre-licensed professional. In sessions, I combine academic, lived, and clinical experiences to create a client-focused therapeutic environment based on collaboration and community. My training has centered on working with queer and trans adolescents and young adults, as well as partnership work, including monogamous, ENM, and poly relationship constellations. In my clinical work, I believe in the strength of authenticity, connection, warmth, and empathy. I primarily draw on narrative, dialogic, and relational approaches in my work. Anti-oppression, social justice, and intersectional feminist lenses are also central.

I believe that all people have the capacity to find paths to healing and make changes in their life. As a trauma informed/affirming therapist I also know that things happen that can make us feel anxious, stuck and alone. I am glad you are looking into giving yourself this opportunity! I utilize a relational and trauma informed approach that is collaborative and allows space for all aspects of who you are. I strive to always integrate an intersectional and social justice framework that allows space and weight for experiences of one’s social identities.

I believe that the journey toward becoming authentically oneself is among the most important work we do. My practice focuses on creating space in which transformation is possible and old patterns can shift into something that allows for growth and possibility. Putting language to complex internal experiences, forging connections, and examining clearly and without shame or judgment the places where stuckness happens are often crucial parts of this process. I work with clients to explore all aspects of identity, focusing on gender and identity development but also intersections of experiences of anxiety, depression, trauma, and dysregulation of mood.

I work from a trauma-informed, systemic perspective, creating a safe supportive environment to allow for growth and change. I believe that clients have the power to heal themselves but can get stuck by past trauma and have difficulty accessing their own inner strength. I am here to help you access your own natural resources to navigate difficult times. I want to get you to your goals as quickly as possible and am happy to work short-term or long-term. My clients generally have relationship or family conflicts, PTSD, anxiety, behavioral issues or mood disorders.

I work with clients of all ages, and I have considerable past experience with children, adolescents, and young adults. The main mental health needs I work with are anxiety, depression, substance use, trauma, and grief. I am here to support people in becoming their ideal selves, which involves truly evaluating our relationship with our self, our relationships with others, and balancing our ability for acceptance and change. There is no "arrival" at “wholeness”, but rather strengthening ourselves to both survive the hard and seek fulfillment.

Many folks find that even after seeing a therapist, they continue to experience problems such as difficulty sleeping, irritable bowel, hypervigilance, being easily startled, being very sensitive, and many other body-based reactions. They may be discouraged, and feel that they simply have to live with these problems. My practice specializes in working with individuals not simply to achieve symptom remission, but to achieve wellness. I actively collaborate with my patients to look at the root causes of anxiety, depression and other problems. In resolving these, I help folks find more balance and peace in their lives.

At this time, I am NOT able to take any new clients. My ideal client is a person or family who is seeking change and who is looking for a therapist with an energetic, actively-involved, solution-focused style. When working with children, I use play therapy and will invite parents to play with us while teaching them what I'm doing and why I'm doing it. I will also teach the parents how to reinforce the same skills at home through play or other techniques. When working with teens and adults, I adjust my style in order to build a connection.
