Are you feeling lost, lonely, and anxious?
Do you feel overwhelmed by unresolved issues with your partner, family, or friends?
Does grief capture your thoughts, but you feel a burden to share your pain with loved ones?
As an Oregon Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) my commitment to you is unwavering and empathetic support while walking with you on your self-care journey. Through a client-centered and solution-focused approach, I believe measured success can be achieved for any committed client willing to engage honestly in the helping process. Building a strong therapeutic alliance is essential to facilitate clear communication and commitment while together we define, work towards, and achieve your goals.
With 5+ years of hospice experience, I have worked with many people who are going through some of the most difficult days in their lives. I have experience with rural, elderly, and vulnerable clients as well as their families – individuals who often struggle watching their loved one transition while simultaneously wrestling with the changing dynamics within their family system. Additionally, in the last decade, I expanded the program was the primary counselor and director for a local youth bereavement summer camp for kids ages 7-17. I have further experience working with mandated child welfare families as well as older and disabled client’s requiring case management for daily support through Oregon’s Aging and People with Disabilities program. My approach combines Cognitive-Behavioral, Psychodynamic and Mindfulness Therapy while Meaning in Loss and Dignity Therapy help address anticipatory grief and bereavement.
I commend you for attending to your mental health needs and hope for you clarity as you walk this path. Keep going!

Angelina is attentive and thoughtful. She treats therapy like a partnership working towards the same goals. I really appreciate her style of offering clear and actionable ways to change patterns of thoughts and behaviors. I always come away with a new phrase or insight I can use to better set boundaries and break patterns that aren’t serving me.

Angelina is amazing! She’s down to earth and wise. I really feel heard when I speak with her. She does assign homework, which I have really enjoyed. It keeps me accountable and helps me utilize the tools while navigating the issues I speak with her about. I definitely recommend for any of your therapy needs. She’s been great to work with. It is my first time exploring therapy and she helped me feel comfortable right away.

Angelina is just what I needed to deal with a specific friend relationship and resolve my concerns with other toxic relationships. Her suggestions made me understand what is toxic and what is healthy.
