Angelamaria has been my first online experience with therapy and was hesitant as to what to expect. I live in a non English speaking country and was crying out for an English speaking therapist to speak to. From the first session she made me feel calm, relaxed and that it was a safe space to be in and talk openly. She is very understanding and relatable and never makes me feel uncomfortable or give hard advice. She’s very down to earth and personable. In the short few months we’ve been having sessions she’s helped me immensely and I’m grateful I’ve found this platform to help me. I’m happy continuing my sessions here and through Annie, I would recommend to anyone who needs that extra little help.

More about Angelamaria
- 6 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
Times are stressful. So many people are feeling confused or fearful or misunderstood. Sometimes, starting on the path to feeling better is to simply start sharing and exploring ideas.
I am a social worker (NY licensed) with over 6 years of experience. I have worked with adolescents, seniors, and all the stages in between. I have helped many people with issues such as depression, anxiety, navigating the workforce as well as crisis and trauma. I also have a background working with seniors and approaching concerns around aging and all that could come with it.
I provide a non-judgmental approach and have been described as open-minded and caring. I am LGBTQ+ friendly and have worked with people from different cultural backgrounds. I also have experience with people with substance use issues.
I use a variety of approaches tailored toward each individual. I favor a strengths-based approach in order to help people feel empowered and appreciate their abilities. By knowing what you are strong in, you can own your power and help move yourself towards self-awareness and making positive changes. Let's take this journey towards growth and connection together.
Feel free to reach out. I will be here.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Amazing, supportive, empathetic and a great listener.
Annie is thoughtful and has many different tools at her disposal to hy with many different kinds of situations.
Annie, provides a safe space in our therapeutic sessions that allow for me to show up as my authentic self. I love the work we do together and realise the progress in my life by integrating those lessons of selfexploration and personal growth. She‘s a wonderful mental health advocat and I felt comfortable enough to revisit personal trauma and selfheal from there on.
Annie is just wonderful!
Angela Has been so helpful for me and I’ve really appreciated all the help and guidance given!
Annie is amazing. Five stars!
She is amazing and supportive. Gives the space to share what is going on but comes back with extremely insightful perspective on what may be happening or experiencing. I would certainly recommend her to my friends!!
Annie listens and truly invests in the people she talks to - I’m lucky to have her as my therapist!!!
Annie has been such a help to me! Her queries, guidance, and advice have led me to such insight and have brought about such positive change in my life. I cannot recommend her enough!
She was very nice and very attentive. I just personally need a psychiatrist
Angelamaria is a fantastic listener and a thought provoking advisor. She has helped me consider my approach to wellbeing, think deeper on topics I’ve not considered around my mental health and ultimately allowed me to open up about issues for the first time. She is easy to talk too and a friendly voice to talk to. Thank you Annie!
Annie is thoughtful and truly listens to what I have to say. She is mindful of my needs and always makes sure that I’m doing well. Truly a great heart!
Annie’s messages have helped me in soothing my anxiety and concerns, even from the very first reply. It must be a difficult job to do, to identify my pressing issue from a short message, but she manages to do it and help me feel better. I’m so grateful you matched me with Annie. It’s only been a short while, so i’m curious to see where my journey goes with Annie to return to.
