Hello! I am accepting new clients at this time.

My name is Angelica, and I am a clinical-level social worker. I have been working in the field of social services for the past 12 years.

After completing my MSW, I started as a school-based social worker, and I have been doing this ever since. I love being able to help people and hear their stories. Everyone has a story to tell, and someone should be there to support and listen.

I think of myself as a responsive, strengths-based, and empathetic counselor. I think everyone deserves grace, and often everyone is going through something that no one knows about. I have had the privilege to work with a wide variety of people, including youth, adults, elderly, adolescents, people with disabilities, and many other people in between. From crisis intervention services, to individual, to group-based therapy, and social skills groups. I have dabbled in a bit of everything in the field so far. I like getting to know the person I am working with, and then coming up with a plan together about what can help!
