Creative Exploration Groups

Art-based groups and workshops give you access to your subconscious, connection with spiritual wisdom, solutions for challenging situations, and calm confidence in your daily life.

Plus you get the added bonus of connecting with other women on similar journeys.

Creative Exploration Coaching

Do you feel like you just can’t find lasting solutions to daily life challenges?

Creative Exploration coaching can help you break through ambivalence, confusion, and negative expectations.

Faith-Focused EMDR Therapy

Have you talked through a traumatic experience but still feel trapped by unwanted emotional reactions and physical sensations?

EMDR Therapy can help you break through past memories, unhelpful beliefs, and negative self-judgment.

Looking for a counselor who shares and respects your Christian faith? Angela integrates Bible-based discussion and interventions to help you draw on God’s power to heal.

Creativity and Faith in Healing

Healing involves reflection, creativity, and hope. Techniques like simple drawings, visualization, and expressive writing help uncover fresh perspectives.

For those who identify as Christian, incorporating faith into the coaching process provides additional support for navigating life’s challenges with hope and purpose.

For Therapists and Ministry Leaders

Consultation

It can be challenging to incorporate EMDR therapy into an existing practice style. Angela offers training and consulting services to help counselors implement and integrate EMDR generally and with a faith-informed focus.
