Hi, I'm Angela, a therapist in Pennsylvania who helps women stop running on empty and start feeling like themselves again. I specialize in the moments that shake your sense of self; anxiety, burnout, pregnancy and postpartum, career transitions, midlife, and empty nest. I work with women (and anyone navigating these experiences) who are exhausted from holding everything together while quietly wondering, is this all there is? You deserve more than just coping. My approach is warm, trauma-informed, and deeply practical, blending CBT, mindfulness, and emotional regulation tools so you leave each session with real skills, not just insight. Whether you're in the thick of early motherhood, navigating a major life shift, or standing at a midlife crossroads asking who am I now? This is a space where you don't have to perform, explain yourself, or have it together. You just have to show up. I'd be honored to be part of what comes next for you.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
A lot of people come to that first session a little nervous, wondering what they're supposed to say or do. The answer is nothing, just show up as you are. We'll spend our time together talking about what's been heaviest lately, what you're hoping will feel different, and what support actually looks like for you. I'll also share a few grounding tools you can start using right away to help with anxiety and overwhelm. No pressure, no judgment. You'll leave feeling heard and with more clarity and direction. IMPORTANT INFORMATION to consider before scheduling: Late Cancellations & No-Shows: A $75 fee applies for cancellations, reschedules, or no-shows with less than 24 hours’ notice. Services I do not provide: Emotional Support Animal (ESA) letters, Assessments for physical/cognitive disabilities or severe psychiatric disorders, Short-Term Disability/FMLA forms, Child custody or reunification, and Eating disorder treatment.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I specialize in supporting women at major turning points; the seasons when your identity, relationships, roles, and sense of purpose are all shifting at once. My work focuses on helping you slow down the noise, understand what's actually driving your anxiety or burnout, and build practical tools that work in real life. What clients tell me most often is that they finally feel heard and understood without having to minimize what they're going through, and that our work helped them reconnect with themselves in ways they didn't expect. My trauma-informed, whole-person approach means we're not just managing symptoms. We're getting to the patterns underneath so the change actually lasts. If you've tried to "push through" and it hasn't worked, this is a different experience.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
My ideal client is a woman who knows something has to change, even if she can't quite name what it is yet. She's capable, often the one others lean on, and has spent so long prioritizing everyone else that she's lost touch with her own needs, wants, and identity. She doesn't need to be fixed; she needs to be heard, understood, and supported in reconnecting with herself. If this sounds like you, I'd love to connect. Click "Book Session" and choose an afternoon or evening appointment. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you in this next chapter.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
Supports you in making room for difficult emotions while clarifying your personal values — who you want to be as a woman, a parent, or a leader. ACT helps reduce anxiety, perfectionism, and internal pressure by strengthening self-trust and guiding you toward choices that align with your authentic identity.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Helps you identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns that fuel anxiety, self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and overwhelm. CBT builds practical skills for grounding, emotional regulation, and confidence so you can respond to challenges with clarity instead of stress or overthinking.
EMDR
Supports emotional processing related to stress, burnout, grief, and past experiences that still affect you today. This approach helps reduce distress and reshape limiting beliefs. My EMDR training is EMDRIA-approved through the Institute for Creative Mindfulness. Note: Currently, I am not providing intensive EMDR trauma processing for clients experiencing active flashbacks or dissociation.
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Helps you understand the different “parts” within you — the overwhelmed part, the inner critic, the perfectionist, the part that doubts itself, and the part that wants change. IFS-informed work creates more harmony between these parts, reducing internal conflict and helping you feel more grounded, whole, and confident in your decisions.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
A practical, forward-looking approach that identifies your strengths, highlights what’s already working, and builds small, achievable steps toward meaningful change. This method is especially helpful if you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next move and want tools and clarity you can start using right away — including for those who prefer just a few focused sessions to get support and direction.

Angela made me feel very comfortable during our first session. She seems like a very compassionate, warm, and understanding person. I am excited to keep working with her!

I have been seeing Angela for about a year now, maybe. I dont remember exactly what spoke to me about her background, but I stay seeing her because she has an uncanny knack of being able to hear what I am not saying out loud. Sometimes I don't even know what it is that I am "not" saying. I have never felt so seen or heard.

Angela has a very warm & welcoming presence accompanying a non judgmental persona. She actively listens, then asks the right questions encouraging you time to feel through your responses. With that being said, she’s an amazing resource, a gem.
