Therapist

Virtual • Santa Fe, NM


I have been a counselor in varied settings. It is my calling. I want to make you feel comfortable and safe when you talk with me. I also want feedback from you if you have any concerns. I do have a master's degree in human development and family relations. I prefer to work with adults and older adolescents. I am certified in DBT and I am working on certification in Trauma treatment and the psychological treatment of ADHD. While I am straight, I am allied with the LBGTQI clients. I like working on relationship area, trauma, trauma and substance abuse, mood disorders, victims of narcisstic abuse, victims of domestic violence. My approach to therapy is eclectic, but I do try to empower clients and help them change old, negative thought patterns that are keeping them from moving forward and accomplishing their goals.

Hi, I’m Angela , a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC). I believe that healing is a journey of both the mind and the spirit. I specialize in helping individuals and couples navigate the heavy weights of trauma, anxiety, and depression.

I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to explore your challenges. My goal is to help you process past hurts and find practical tools to move forward with hope and clarity.
