I have learned so much during the months I’ve spent with Dr. Angela. I’ve learned how to breathe, like literally breathe! I never knew the relation between anxiety and oxygen supply and know I consider it every time I’m feeling anxious. Also, starting, I was carrying a lot of guilt. I thought I had failed in my last relationship and would constantly beat myself up about it. Dr. Angela taught me the P.A.C. method (Transactional Analysis) and now I’m able to focus on actual facts rather than negative emotions. This was a major lesson because I apply it to my life daily in order to remain rational. Dr. Angela and I spent a lot of time creating my list of non-negotiables. She taught me that I could set very specific standards for myself and don’t have to compromise any of them. This gave me a great boost of confidence! I’ve learned that I am important and always come first. Dr. Angela was also able to help me accept a very difficult health diagnosis. Instead of dwelling on the matter, I’ve discovered ways to make my day to day easier physically and mentally. Most days I forget it even exists, which also has boosted my self-esteem. Dr. Angela is very kind and only wants the best for you. She will never stand for you beating yourself up or speaking down on yourself. She even advised me on work and school and how to be successful in all aspects of my life. She has a lot of experience with counseling you through a work-life, school-life balance. I couldn’t have asked for a better cheerleader. I’m going to miss her!
