My treatment methods

Culturally Sensitive Therapy

I recognize and integrates a client's cultural background, beliefs, and values into the therapeutic process. I acknowledge the impact of cultural factors on an individual's mental health, facilitating a more personalized and relevant healing experience. By fostering an environment of respect and understanding, culturally sensitive therapy helps build trust in our therapeutic rapport, allowing for more effective intervention and support.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I use CBT to help client gain effective skills in managing life stressors. This gives them tangible and real life skills to use outside of therapy as they process emotions and their impact.

Some therapy styles can be difficult for people with OCD, but Angel is incredibly well-versed in the topic and is full of helpful coping mechanisms, practices, etc. that strengthen my relationship with myself.
