Angel Littlefield

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 25 mi away • Reno, NV


Therapy with me is a conversation, not a lecture. I’m direct, a little sarcastic, and I use humor to make the hard stuff easier to talk about. I believe in meeting you where you are—whether you’re navigating a major life transition, working through past trauma, or just trying to figure out why everything feels overwhelming. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, supported, and maybe even laugh a little along the way.

As a Nevada-based LCSW providing Telehealth services, I aim to make therapy feel approachable, collaborative, and grounded in real life.

I especially enjoy working with teens and young adults who may feel misunderstood or unsure where to start, as well as adults who are carrying a lot while trying to keep everything together. Together, we’ll focus on helping you better understand yourself, strengthen coping skills, and create a life that feels more aligned and manageable.

Therapist

Virtual • Nevada


I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master's degree in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University and 18 years of experience in behavioral health and addiction services. Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals facing substance use challenges, mental health concerns, life transitions, and personal struggles that can leave people feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from who they want to be.

I specialize in working with adults experiencing addiction, anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, men's issues, LGBTQ+ concerns, relationship challenges, trauma, and major life transitions. I am passionate about helping clients discover their strengths, develop healthier coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I believe that healing happens when people feel accepted, understood, and supported. My goal is to provide a safe, inclusive, and affirming environment where clients can explore their experiences without judgment. No matter how difficult things may feel today, I believe there is hope for growth, healing, and recovery.
