About me

I am a licensed clinical social worker in Florida with 4 years of counseling experience. I am passionate about counseling, it is what I love to do, and have experience in helping clients with relationship issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy related issues, & depression. I create a no-judgement zone with my clients, I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I specialize in working with couples and individuals in alternative lifestyles and identifying as LGBTQ+, and promise to always have a safe space for my clients. I will tailor our conversations and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy and being vulnerable takes courage, and I am honored if you decide to open up with me and share your story. I am here to be a facilitator in your healing journey as you become a better version of yourself.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Angela Heck. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

Angela has really helped me broaden my perspective and self analyze myself. Which was something I was scared for going into therapy, but knew it had to be done. I’m so glad I was able to get on betterhelp and connect with Angela. She’s been a constant for me, and I’m so relieved to be coming back after a small hiatus on my part. Betterhelp and Angela were flexible enough with me to pause when I need to, and schedule with Angela. She has helped me in my career, home life and love life. She helped me get started on goals and worked on communication skills together to better achieve that. Thank you Angela!

Angela is wonderful! She is working with me on my depression, she helped me understand and feel much better about my (what I considered to be strange/taboo) fantasies and has a way of speaking to me in a non judgemental, motivational way. She's great at making me feel empowered and renewed in my focuses. I feel more motivated and ready for anything after our sessions!!!

Angela has very quickly become one of my most trusted people to talk to about my weekly issues as well as deep rooted trauma. She feels like a friend but in a good way, one with constructive dialogue to provide you with things to try and ways to better cope through everyday life. I truly enjoy my weekly talks with her, it’s my chance to spill all the things the people in my day to life might not have space or energy for and it truly feels like a breathe of fresh air. She’s great!

Angela has been really cool so far! She's a good middle ground between professional and relaxed! She can be serious but I still feel like I'm speaking to someone I can trust and be sincere with!

Angela has been a Godsend. I truly feel like she cares about me and my mental and physical health. She is always there when I need her. I actually look forward to our weekly chats and I couldn’t imagine going through my life right now without her.
