Angelica Aristizabal
Hi there, I'm Angelica, and I would like to start by congratulating you on choosing the journey to heal. The decision to face our challenges, heal and grow is a hard one but by far the most rewarding. My mission is to actively work towards changing the world for the better, one interaction at a time. For me, it is important to treat everyone with respect and compassion.
I have worked with adults & children in school settings, hospitals, jails, and juvenile detention centers, and those in the LGBTQ community.
I have years of experience working with diverse populations experiencing a wide range of concerns including; depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, physical and emotional abuse, active hallucinations & delusions. I have worked with adults & children in school settings, hospitals, jails, and juvenile detention centers, and those in the LGBTQ community. My therapy style is non-judgmental, welcoming, warm & interactive. I believe in creating an environment where individuals feel important, listened to, empowered, and can heal through vulnerability Feel proud of yourself for choosing to heal, and I am grateful to help you through this journey!
First session
From the very beginning my goal is always to ensure that clients feel comfortable and safe in the space that I create. To me, the first session is critical to building a healthy relationship. So I start off by providing a space where clients can ask questions about the process, what to expect, how things may work, ETC. I also take this time to go over some basic "rules" and guidelines to ensure that we are on the same page moving forward. After this, I will do an assessment, which is asking you questions about yourself, reviewing the questionnaires that were filled out, and gathering any additional information that may be helpful for us to work together.
Strengths
I like to believe that one of my biggest strengths is working with individuals that have experienced traumatic events. I am a firm believer that we can overcome anything, and trauma is one of the hardest experiences we can overcome, but one of the most fulfilling. I don't shy away from a "difficult" situation, and I want to encourage all of you to face those situations that you may be running away from. The time to heal is now!
Ideal clients
I like to believe that I am best positioned to work with any client that is wanting to heal. I do not limit myself to one population, or one specific area to focus on. I am a true believer that we all want to be the best versions of ourselves, whether we realize that or not. I value working with anyone that is wanting to growth, wanting to heal, and wanting to end unhealthy cycles that keep them in unhealthy places.
