Hello and welcome to my page! My name is Donna Angel and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). I specialize in self love, self compassion, depression, anxiety, body image issues, eating disorders, addiction and mindfulness. It is my passion and joy to work with individuals and families seeking to improve their emotional well-being and live a fulfilling life.
As a therapist, I believe deeply in meeting clients where they are at and creating a nurturing, supportive environment. Whether you're dealing with recent trauma or long-term emotional challenges, my goal is to help you discover clarity and insight into your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
I take great pride in being a warm and personable therapist. I understand that seeking therapy can be a difficult decision, and my approach is one of empathy and understanding. Together, we work collaboratively to achieve your goals and ensure growth, healing, and emotional well-being. I look forward to accompanying you on your journey and supporting you in optimizing your life.
Welcome! I'm Donna Angel. Id like to take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life. Counseling can foster personal development in whatever way you may be seeking and help build the life you so deeply deserve. If that's what you're looking for, I'm here when you're ready to share.
