Angeleta Boyce Psychotherapy, LMHC

I believe, like most others, in helping professions and I have wanted to help people from a very young age. As a friend, sister, cousin, and daughter, I always found myself in the role of confidante, listening ear, advice giver, and playing all the other parts that signaled very loudly to me and my calling in the counseling field. I have a great deal of experience working with people in various settings from agency to private practice. I also have experience working with individuals and couples to address a variety of concerns, including anxiety, depression, grief, communication, and coping skills.

Therapy is a process of growth and self-discovery and, in my sessions, I promote behavioral transformation by encouraging a positive outlook and the adoption of new attitudes and reactions. I have the tools and professional experience to help you get back on track using a strengths-based, cognitive behavioral approach. I work with people from various socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds. Additionally, I have studied in a wide array of places, from New York to India; this has given me a great deal of appreciation for diverse groups of people. I use this experience to understand the best way to assist the client while incorporating their culture and beliefs.

I am very excited about the increase in awareness and ongoing conversation around the importance of mental health in minority communities. Therapy is becoming less stigmatized and more accessible to people who historically have not considered actually participating due to cultural stigmas. I am happy to see a network of professionals, clergy, celebrities, and individuals who are rallying around the value and need for mental health.
