About me
Hello! You’ve taken the first step towards making positive changes in your life and that takes such strength and courage. Therapy can be scary and difficult at times but it’s so worth it. I’m here to walk with you on your journey to wellness and empowerment. YOU CAN DO THIS!
I am a licensed clinical social worker and a licensed addiction counselor in the state of Montana. I was active duty in the U.S. Navy for 8 years. I love my job and am dedicated to helping my clients. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns like depression, anxiety, trauma, chemical dependency, crisis management, parenting, domestic violence, anger management and relationship problems.
My counseling style is interactive, validating, empathetic, and warm. I believe everyone has worth and deserves respect, compassion, and sensitivity. My approach is client-centered, strengths based and combines cognitive-behavioral, dialectical-behavioral, psychoeducation and mindfulness. Your treatment plan is tailored to you and your specific needs.
I like homework options for clients to get the most out of our time together, so we may use books, workbooks, worksheets, helpful apps, or creative activities (like exercise, art, or writing). These are options and together we can decide on what works best for you and your needs. If you’re ready to take the next step, I would be honored to work with you on your journey.
I look forward to working with you!

Angela is super helpful in my mental health journey. She listens and takes the time to answer, give feedback as needed, ideas when necessary and just affirmation or suggestions for another perspective. I feel she is supportive but not just pandering to what I want to hear, but balancing some of what I need to hear una positive way.

Angela tells it like it is, doesn't sugar coat things and sees the whole picture from the outside looking in and always looks for the positive in all situations. I feel very comfortable with her.

Angela is an amazing therapist!! She listens and offers advice. I have been with her for 7 months and feel like she has helped me get through some of the hardest moments. And not only is she my ears, but I feel she is my shoulder when I need to cry. And she celebrates my accomplishments. I have been to many therapists and Angela is by far the best one I have ever had. I can not say enough about how compassionate she is. She truly has helped me start becoming the best version of myself. Many thanks Angela, don’t know how I would make it day to day without your help.

It’s only been a few weeks so far but I am so pleased I was matched with Angela. She’s helping me through some really difficult and incredibly traumatic life changes and I am so grateful to have her support.
