Individual Therapy

Individual therapy is one-on-one counseling between a client and the therapist.  There are multiple reasons clients seek individual therapy.  Among these include mental health problems related to depression, anxiety, and PTSD, to name a few.  As an illustration, the therapist assists clientele with effective coping skills to deal with, manage, or heal from trauma or burdensome circumstances that negatively impact mental and emotional well-being.  In addition, this treatment protocol serves clients by inspiring change and improving their quality of life.

Testimonials


Angela has been a wonderful help to me. She blends her professional expertise with her friendly and outgoing personality to create therapy sessions that are positive, helpful, and effective. Even when Angela was helping me “dig into the real issues” I was facing, I felt “safe and secure” in our conversations. I often felt I was talking to a “life coach” or a dear friend as she helped me navigate “stress and change.” I highly recommend her services.
I have been in counseling with Dr. Angela Jackson for six months. In these six months, Angela has helped me out a lot. I have been learning to find “value in myself” and gain confidence while “exploring who I am and want to be.” Angela has also helped me become aware of my feelings and how to think before reacting to my emotions. I can tell there has been an “improvement in my life” and with the people around me since I started therapy with Dr. Angela.
I started seeing Dr. Jackson for “anxiety” and “self-esteem” issues. I am a professional, educated woman, and these emotions affected my work and personal life. From the beginning, Dr. Jackson was forthright and honest. She has helped me understand myself and my reactions to my emotions, which has helped me have substantial breakthroughs. Dr. Jackson has made me feel “empowered and confident.” Our conversations are therapeutic, but we can also discuss sociopolitical issues surrounding equal rights for women since our therapeutic relationship has progressed. Doing this helps me reconcile myself and my behaviors with the world in which we live. I feel fortunate to have found Dr. Jackson.
I chose Dr. Angela Jackson as my therapist for her strong feminine, independent, confident aura and Christian background. She has taught me perseverance, better coping skills, and how to be more self-aware. I can better handle my emotions while making them feel validated and much more! Angela has guided me through crippling times and motivated me to be even better during calmer waters. She has surpassed the title of “just” being a therapist, as I see her now as an uplifting friend that has my best interest at heart at all times. I hope you get the honor of having Dr. Jackson guide you swiftly through your situation, as have I.
I genuinely love and enjoy the sessions I have with Angela. She has helped me through battles in my life and helped me overcome my struggles, and taught me how to see my “self-worth.” When I needed therapeutic services later on in life, I chose to wait on Angela until she had an opening to see me. I will always select Angela if I have hardships and struggles in life, even if it takes weeks to get into her busy schedule. It is easy to connect and open up; she creates a welcoming but no-nonsense atmosphere. After leaving each session, I always feel the weight lifted off my shoulders, and I can clearly make decisions. I look forward to our subsequent meetings every week. There have been many battles, and I couldn’t have made it through them without the guidance of Angela.
A year and a half ago, I felt lost. My “life was upside down,”and I was dealing with my ex-husband’s addiction and infidelity. I have four kids, and I knew they needed me to be strong, and I couldn’t do it alone. So, I decided to seek help; that’s when I met Angela. In the beginning, it was hard for me because I was exposing my life and myself to a stranger, but little did I know that she would become a part of my emotional support system. Every time I needed reassurance, she gave it to me, but she also made me see how much I needed to work on myself and “love myself.” I learned that I’m “responsible for my happiness.” Angela taught me how to set healthy boundaries and how self-talk can significantly impact our minds. I think about that every day, especially when I doubt myself. She came into my life when I needed her the most. I’m grateful I found her because she helped me “regain my power” while taking the reins of my life back. Thank you, Angela.
Dr. Angela Jackson has been a blessing in my life by helping me through one of the most challenging emotional times I’ve had in my sixty-plus years. She has guided me through setting “boundaries first with myself and then with others.” I have learned to process my life’s issues that have been my struggle for the last few years and see how my thought patterns have brought on added stress. Although I have been changing, I have learned that change is a process. Angela has also encouraged me to see myself as a “worthy woman” who is intelligent, strong, independent, and loving, which has led me to begin removing obstacles that create emotional stress in my life. Now, I am coping and functioning better in my daily life.” One of the things I appreciate the “most” about my therapeutic relationship with Dr. Angela Jackson is how she listens but is still straightforward. I need that.
