Hi! My name is Angelica, and I'm honored that you are considering me to be your therapist! I have 10 years of experience being a Social Worker across complex settings, including outpatient psychiatry at a hospital, a domestic violence shelter, and non-profit agencies. I specialize in working with people who struggle with intense emotions, and have a difficult time regulating those emotions.
My clients have told me that I speak to them like a friend who empowers them while also holding them accountable. I believe everyone is doing their best and they need to do better. Some sessions you'll laugh, some sessions you'll cry. Some sessions we'll have thought provoking conversations, and some sessions we'll talk about the latest episode of Love Island. I believe that therapy is meant to fit into your life as you see fit!
I think it's important that the first session be relaxed and stress-free! Starting therapy is a big step for most people, and it may feel weird talking to a stranger about your life. I'll start with gathering basic information about you and what brings you to therapy and then go into how I believe I can help you!
