Hi! My name is Angel Emmanuel and I am excited that you're here! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from the Windy City (Chicago, IL). With more than 8 years of experience as a social worker in a healthcare setting, I am passionate in helping people. It was through my day to day interactions that I recognized the needs of my community and I decided to provide quality one on one therapy. I received my education in Illinois, where I obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Family and Child Studies in 2012 from Northern Illinois University and my Masters of Social Work in 2014 from the University of Illinois at Chicago. My journey then took me to South Florida where I am now licensed to provide therapy . I am dedicated to providing a holistic and inclusive experience.
During your first session you can expect a warm virtual hug. I am devoted to creating a very comfortable space where you can unwind. The floor is yours once we establish a bit of housekeeping. We will then explore your therapy goals and begin to develop your treatment plan. We will review any resources available to you and begin building your tool box for challenges that may arise.
I feel confident that you will find my approach simple and effective. I am authentic, empathetic, reliable, and most of all I believe in YOU!
During this collaborative experience we begin to dive deep to learn how YOU have always possessed the skills needed to accomplish your goals.
We will work together to challenge your thoughts and feelings. We will begin to identify and recognize how your thoughts directly affect your behavior so that your new awareness can aide in your healing.
You are the expert of you! Let's use your knowledge of self and build skills to aid in your healing.
