Angela Atkins, LMHC
About me
I am a licensed mental health counselor and Qualified Supervisor for LMHCs in Florida with over 20 years of experience working as a counselor and professor of psychology. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, parenting, career challenges, and adjustment challenges. I have also helped many people who have experienced grief over the death of a loved one.
My counseling style is warm and compassionate. I believe in treating anyone with respect and sensitivity. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral and family systems perspectives. I have had over 10 years in intensive Bowen Natural Family Systems training. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Angela always says exactly what I need to hear when I need to hear it. I have grown so much through my time with her!

Angela is amazing! I look forward to my weekly chats with her. She pushes me to dig deeper in a kind and respectful way that has been hard to find and I really appreciate all her work with me.

Angela has given myself and my husband such great advise on how to communicate. My husband was not interested in counseling at 1st but after having one session with her, he's all in.
