My style

I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the cornerstone of therapy success.

Before anything else, we’ll focus on getting to know you — not just your struggles, but your strengths, your story, and what healing looks like in your life. I want to understand what matters to you, what’s been hard, and what you’re hoping for. Therapy should feel safe, supportive, and like a space where you can be fully yourself. That sense of trust is the foundation for everything we’ll do together.

At a pace that feels right for you, we’ll begin to look at how past experiences may still be affecting your present. Maybe anxiety shows up through overthinking, people pleasing, or constantly needing to prove yourself. Maybe it’s more hidden, like struggling to set boundaries, turning to substances to cope, or feeling numb, guilty, or emotionally exhausted. For some, sleep is restless and filled with nightmares. However it shows up, you're not making it up, and you don't have to carry it alone.

In our work together, I’ll help you untangle these patterns and begin to build something new. You’ll learn tools that actually work. But more than that, you’ll gain the confidence to live in a way that feels lighter, more grounded, and more like yourself.

If you’re coming to therapy as a couple, I hold a calm, neutral space where both partners feel supported and heard. I don’t take sides or keep score. Instead, I help you slow things down, communicate more clearly, and better understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Whether you're looking to reconnect, navigate ongoing conflict, or decide the future of your relationship through discernment counseling, we’ll work together in a way that feels authentic, respectful, and aligned with your goals.

As a White and cisgender therapist, I hold a deep commitment to creating an inclusive and affirming space. I know that therapy does not happen in a vacuum. Our identities, culture, lived experiences, and the systems we move through all shape how we show up in the world. I strive to hold space for those complexities with humility, care, and curiosity. My goal is for you to feel seen, heard, and valued exactly as you are.

My style

The foundation of therapy is the connection between us. A place where your voice is welcomed and your journey is honored.

First, we’ll take time to connect and build trust. I want to know your story, your strengths, and the ways your past has shaped your experience. Healing means something different to everyone, and I want to understand what it means for you. Creating a space where you feel safe and truly heard is the foundation of everything we do together.

At a pace that feels manageable, we’ll explore how the pain and stress you’ve carried. Maybe it’s in the form of intense emotions, overwhelming relationships, or patterns that keep repeating. Whether you’re navigating the challenges of young adulthood, college life, or beyond, you might be struggling with people-pleasing, feeling misunderstood, or carrying deep wounds from trauma and attachment. Maybe you’re exhausted from the constant inner turmoil or feel like your feelings are too much to handle. Whatever you’re facing, we’ll work together to find tools and ways to help you feel more grounded, more in control, and more like yourself.

I’m committed to holding space for all parts of your identity and experience, including the cultural and social forces that shape your journey. I actively strive to honor diversity and approach our work with sensitivity to issues of power and privilege. You deserve to be seen, heard, and valued exactly as you are.

Meet Angela Matter

You’ve been strong for everyone else. Now it’s time to let that strength serve you, too.

My style

I believe that true change happens in safe environments.

You’ve spent so long taking care of everyone else that you’re not even sure who you are anymore.

Maybe life looks different than you ever imagined. If you’re navigating divorce, kids growing up, a move, or the weight of a blended family dynamic, I see you. You might be grieving the loss of what you thought life would be, or quietly carrying the emotional toll of surviving a relationship that wasn’t safe. Even if you’re “holding it all together” on the outside, inside you may feel exhausted, resentful, or just... lost.

I’m Angela, and I help women and moms reconnect with themselves in the middle of life transitions that feel like they’re pulling everything apart. Whether you're adjusting to an empty house, navigating divorce, or managing the complex emotions that come with parenting, you're not meant to do this alone.

In our first sessions, we’ll focus on getting to know you. I want to help you explore your story, your strengths, and the version of yourself that’s been waiting for a place to land. I want to understand what healing means to you, and we’ll move at a pace that feels safe and steady.

Often, stressors from the past don’t stay in the past. They show up in people-pleasing, in burnout, in feeling stuck between guilt and anger. Sometimes they hide in the way we keep saying "I'm fine" when we’re not, or how hard it feels to ask for what we need. Whether you’re dealing with grief, emotional overwhelm, or just trying to find yourself again, I’ll help you gently unpack what’s been weighing on you and begin to build something new.

You don’t need to come in knowing the right words or the perfect plan. You just need a place where you can exhale and begin.

I approach therapy with cultural responsiveness and a deep respect for the many identities that shape who you are. I recognize that your experiences are layered, and that healing must honor your full, lived reality. My goal is to hold space for every part of your story, without judgment and with care.
