Angela LaSorsa

Licensed Mental Health Counselor 

"My approach to therapy is inspired by the ideology that you can’t pour from an empty cup.  We are so often consumed by the thoughts, patterns, and wishes of others that we do not prioritize our own needs.  My goal for a therapeutic relationship is one that creates a safe space to explore better ways to engage in your life.  It is hugely beneficial to have a place to be comfortable being your most authentic self.  I am passionate about providing neutral ground to support you while operating as person-centered and strengths-based.  I aim to gently challenge negative thought patterns and provide direct and judgment-free feedback to work together towards desired outcomes."
