I specialize in working with neurodivergent adults (ADHD, autism), LGBTQIA individuals, and those navigating chronic illness, burnout, and perimenopause or menopause. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or like nothing they’ve tried has worked.
You might feel like you’re constantly “too much” and “not enough” at the same time, or like simple things take more energy than they should. That’s not a personal failure—it’s a sign that your brain and body need different kinds of support.
With over twelve years of experience, I offer therapy that is warm, affirming, and practical. I help clients reduce overwhelm, build coping tools that actually work, and better understand how their brain and body function.
My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and supported as you build a life that works for you.
I have a strong track record of working with parents, building relationships and connecting with youth who are reluctant or nervous about therapy. I have a doctorate in Clinical Psychology and Masters in Education and Childhood Development. I've worked as a therapist in Jr. High and High School settings and currently work in private clinic to heal family relationships. I give you the tools to be kinder to yourself and step back into your life refreshed and empowered.
I am a clinical psychologist working in San Diego, with over 20 years of experience. I earned a BA in Psychology from University of California Santa Barbara, and a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Alliant International University (formerly California School of Professional Psychology). I completed a postdoctoral fellowship in substance use disorders at the San Diego Veteran's Affairs Healthcare System. I have expertise in working with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, substance use problems, relationship issues, and assertiveness. I also conduct psychological testing for questions around ADHD, Autism, mood disorders, giftedness, learning problems, and personality issues, among others. I believe psychotherapy is a collaborative process to help clients understand themselves better, achieve goals, and become one's best self.
I am deeply committed to helping individuals reconnect with themselves, understand the emotions beneath their experiences, and develop effective coping tools that support greater happiness and well-being. I have been licensed since 1998 and specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, and PTSD.
My name is Angela and I have over a decade of experience in working with families and individuals in a therapeutic setting. I am fluent in Spanish and have a diverse background. I take a client-centered, humanistic approach to treatment. I am fluent in CBT, psychodynamic therapy, and have a specialty in family dynamics.
I am a licensed psychotherapist with 20 years of clinical experience working with anxiety, depression and complicated relationships among many other concerns. I tend to use a more logic-driven, analytical structured approach with my clients where together we try to understand and analyze patterns of behavior that are causing problems and getting in the way of their lives. As a result, neurodivergents and people who work in the hard sciences, technology fields, or are business executives tend to respond very positively to my style and approach. I also work with mood disorders, unconventional or complicated relationships, historical spiritual abuse and military veterans.
Specialty in AI and technology:
I also specialize in the psychology of AI, technology and how it affects society and relationships. For 7 months last year, I spent extensive time within AI-user online communities to learn about their firsthand experiences involving AI-related harm and parasocial relationships. I was featured in the 2026 title How to Talk to AI (And How Not To) by BBC journalist and author Jamie Bartlett, where I discussed parasocial relationships in AI use.
Hobbies:
I love the outdoors, backpacking and going on road trips with my dog. I teach outdoor skills in a wilderness class each winter. I also love California native plants and am a trained naturalist.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Stockton
Searching for therapists in Stockton starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, and life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for specialties, therapy styles, and populations served that match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and what sessions may be like.
In a mid-sized city like Stockton, your search may include therapists near neighborhoods such as Lincoln Center, Weston Ranch, Spanos Park, or other parts of San Joaquin County. You may prefer an office that fits your commute, or you may want virtual sessions that fit your schedule from home. Beyond location and format, review whether a therapist is accepting new patients, has appointment times that work for you, and offers a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can also help you compare communication style, focus areas, and session structure.
Therapy in Stockton can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and show an estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can browse therapists in Stockton, review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
