Tantrums, timeouts, tears—repeat. Those big feelings come out in unexpected, unhealthy ways or are trapped below, so deeply, it begins to eat away at their self confidence. It is painful to watch as their behavior and mood worsen, and that child gets harder and harder to parent. They're trying to be strong, but are carrying a weight too heavy for their little shoulders. You have to be so strong but you are losing connection with yourself in the process. If any of this resonates with you, we may be a good fit.

Hi welcome! My name is Angelica (like from the Rugrats if you are part of that era). As a therapist i encourage my clients to understand “Change is part of the process”. Which is the foundation of therapy... My goal as a clinician is to always provide a safe place full of laughter, insight, and most of all healing and understanding. "If you do the work, then therapy will work" is the mantra I tell the individuals I work with. If you are ready to take that next step I look forward to collaborating with you on your self-healing journey.

I am a Christian Therapist. I believe each encounter possesses a unique and sacred exchange between individuals. It is a privileged opportunity to encounter the other person, realizing his or her dignity and appreciating the grand life narrative which has been created thus far. I hope to assist you in highlighting your own personal gifts and contributions, creating together a new experience that will offer you an increased capacity to give and receive love, along with a new sense of ones own meaning and place in their community.

My experience, knowledge gained, and intentional growth thus far has allowed me to trust a combination of DBT Therapy and Skills, Value Work, and healing to start or continue moving towards a life worth living for our greatest good and highest purpose. Although this is an ongoing process, we often times show up and reach out when we are uncomfortable and finding it hard to have joyful moments. When struggles are with other folks... may it be family, co-workers, freinds, etc. we need to get more in touch with our values, set our own boundaries, manage our own expectations! That's the ticket!
