ABOUT
ANGELINA

It's good to meet you!
Seeking therapy is a courageous act of self-care and discovery. Whether it’s because you're feeling overwhelmed, burned out, navigating past wounds, identity questions, or the pressure of expectations, you’re not alone. I’m here to walk alongside you with warmth, compassion, and deep respect for who you are and where you come from.
I work with teens and young adults, specializing in supporting second-generation Americans, neurodivergent individuals (including those with ADHD and Autism), LGBTQIA+ clients, and their loved ones.
I honor the wisdom you already carry. Together, we’ll work to better understand your patterns, clarify what matters to you, and build coping strategies that align with your needs—not imposed norms. Whether you're looking to manage emotional overwhelm, strengthen relationships, explore your identity, or simply feel more at home in yourself, we’ll move at a pace that feels right for you.
My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices like DBT, Mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing, but always adapted to fit your lived experience. Our sessions might focus on building practical skills—such as emotion regulation, communication, or motivation—or delve into deeper work around unmasking, grief, role transitions, spirituality, and belonging. Both insight and action have a place in the room.
As a therapist, I deeply value providing a space for clients exploring queerness, neurodivergence, bicultural identity, intergenerational or relationship pressures, and systems that weren’t built with you in mind. I’m here to support you in reclaiming your story, honoring your complexity, and building a life that feels authentic, sustainable, and whole.
