Angela is a mental health counseling intern at BeWELL Psychotherapy and Wellness. Passionate about mental wellness, she believes it is a fundamental human right to be seen, heard, and understood. She is dedicated to creating a grounded space where clients are free to show up authentically and explore their inner world. Whether this is their first therapeutic experience or a return to their journey of self-discovery, Angela walks alongside clients with care and presence.
As an advanced-year student in City College’s Mental Health Counseling Program, Angela integrates her academic training into her clinical practice. Grounded in cultural humility, relational dynamics, and a strengths-based perspective, she empowers clients from all walks of life. Angela engages in a collaborative process, guiding clients toward unlocking deep-rooted parts of themselves, and embracing the parts that are still emerging. Her sessions provide space to release emotions, untangle difficult thoughts, and explore areas of life that deserve attention. She recognizes the courage it takes to let down your walls with someone new and is committed to safeguarding that trust every step of the way.
Angela specializes in identity exploration, life transitions, anxiety, and depression. She takes an integrative approach, tailoring therapy to each client’s unique needs. Through Psychodynamic theory, she explores early childhood experiences and family dynamics to understand how these foundational moments shape the present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients address the here-and-now by examining the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and gently challenging patterns that no longer serve their growth. Narrative therapy empowers clients to recognize their resilience and strength, inviting them to reflect on qualities that may be overlooked in their current narrative.
Clients working with Angela will experience a therapeutic relationship that balances compassion with accountability. She invites laughter, tears, and every emotion in between, honoring the complexity of each client’s path. With sincere openness, Angela creates a space where clients feel safe to be themselves while working toward meaningful change.
Together, Angela and her clients explore the past, present, and the possibilities for the future, aiming to intentionally move through the world in a way that aligns with their true values and purpose.
