More about Angela

  • 22 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I believe therapy should be a safe, empowering space where you're met with empathy, honesty, and respect. I bring a grounded, compassionate presence to support children, adults, and families. As a bilingual and bicultural therapist, I value the role of culture, identity, and community in healing. I offer a collaborative approach—holding space for your story while encouraging growth. You don’t need all the answers—just a willingness to begin. I’ll meet you there.
