My name is Angela Stockard, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. That has been practicing for over 15 years in the San Francisco Bay Area. I have worked within a variety of settings including: community-based, psychiatric/residential, and school settings. Diversity in every sense of the word is important and something that I value. Over the years, I have enjoyed working with adults, children, adolescents, women and the LGBTQ+ community. As for the rich and varied cultural/ethnic groups that I have worked with includes: African-Americans, Latinos, Pacific Islanders, and Asians. I bring a calm and quiet yet playful approach to the therapy space. My style is collaborative and flexible, as therapy and modalities are not a one size fits all practice. I am intuitive, attentive and empathic to what could be useful and supportive to when a little nudge is needed. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution Focused Therapy to help achieve goals. I also like to utilize art (in all forms), journaling, meditation, and nature in my practice as words are not always the best way to express, explore and manage the self and one’s challenges. I look forward to chatting with you as you start a journey, growing and healing.
