New to Grow
Hi, I’m Angelica. I’m a licensed counselor who works with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. I integrate evidence-based approaches like EMDR with a compassionate, grounded style, and I offer faith-based counseling for those who want to include their Christian beliefs in the healing process. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can experience clarity, peace, and lasting change.
In our first session, I’ll get to know you—your story, what’s bringing you in, and what you’re hoping to work toward—while making sure you feel comfortable and supported. We’ll also begin creating a clear plan for our work together, including goals and next steps tailored to your needs.
My greatest strengths in therapy are my ability to create a safe, grounded space where clients feel genuinely seen and understood, and my skill in balancing compassion with structure so sessions feel both supportive and effective. I also help clients move beyond surface-level coping into deeper healing—integrating approaches like EMDR and, when desired, faith-based support to foster real, lasting change.
My ideal client is an adult who feels ready for meaningful change and is open to exploring both the emotional and deeper root causes of their struggles. They may be navigating anxiety, trauma, life transitions, or feeling stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand. Many are thoughtful and self-aware, even if overwhelmed, and are looking for practical tools alongside deeper healing work. They are open—when desired—to integrating faith into the counseling process and want a space where their spiritual life can be part of their healing, not separate from it. They value a compassionate, structured approach and are willing to engage consistently in the process, even when it feels challenging, with the goal of experiencing greater peace, clarity, and lasting transformation.
EMDR
I integrate EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) into my practice to help clients gently process and heal from trauma, anxiety, and deeply rooted emotional experiences. Using a structured, evidence-based approach, I guide clients in reprocessing distressing memories so they no longer feel overwhelming or defining. I incorporate faith-based principles when desired, creating space for clients to connect their healing journey with their spiritual beliefs—emphasizing truth, renewal, and restoration. My approach is compassionate, paced, and focused on helping clients experience lasting freedom and emotional resilience.
Faith based therapy
I provide faith based counseling that integrates evidence-based therapeutic approaches with biblical truth and spiritual support. I help clients navigate challenges such as anxiety, trauma, and life transitions while anchoring the work in faith, identity in Christ, and God’s design for healing and renewal. When desired, I incorporate prayer, Scripture, and spiritual reflection into sessions, creating a space where emotional and spiritual growth can happen together. My approach is compassionate, grounded, and focused on helping clients experience clarity, peace, and lasting transformation.
