Introduction

Hi, I'm Angela! My journey into mental health began with a deep desire to create the spaces I wished had existed for myself and my community. Navigating different cultural expectations, identities, and systemic stressors can feel incredibly lonely, and I want to provide a safe, warm space where you don't have to carry those challenges alone. In my practice, I specialize in helping individuals navigate trauma, anxiety, life transitions, and identity exploration. As a bilingual and bicultural therapist, I am passionate about supporting people from immigrant or marginalized backgrounds. Together, we can gently untangle intergenerational patterns while also honoring your lived experiences. Therapy is about so much more than just managing symptoms. It's about reclaiming your narrative and building a life that reflects your values. We will collaboratively explore the root of your challenges, develop practical coping tools, and practice self-compassion. My hope is to offer you a steady and affirming place to land where you feel truly seen, heard, and empowered to heal at your own pace.
