Hello, my name is Angelica, I'm currently completing my Master's in Social Work at Northeastern Illinois University and beginning my journey as a therapist. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and cultural challenges.

My passion for this work comes from a mix of lived experience, professional training, and a deep desire to help others feel seen and supported. Throughout my time in social work, I’ve had the honor of working with people facing grief, trauma, and major life transitions including through my work in hospice care. These experiences have taught me how powerful it is to simply have someone by your side during the hard moments.

I aim to create a safe, empowering environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace. A safe and compassionate space where your pain is honored, your identity is respected, and your healing is supported. As a bilingual therapist (English & Spanish), I’m especially committed to creating accessible, culturally affirming care, especially for those who may not have had someone who can relate to them culturally. If you are ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing. I am here to support you every step of the way.
