Angelica Acree, LP — Therapist in Florida

Hi there, I'm Angelica!

I'm passionate about counseling and supporting my clients toward healing and growth. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse, grief, and adjustment to life transitions.

My focus

My focus is on helping people who are experiencing grief, anxiety, depression, ADD/ADHD, substance use, intergenerational/familial issues, perfectionism, low self-esteem, and difficulties in adjustment to life circumstances. This adjustment can include changes in relationships, work status, fears about societal expectations, and medical issues.

My approach

My approach is grounded in the development of a strong therapeutic relationship in which I take the time to understand you and your goals. I provide a safe space and personalized guidance to create lasting growth. I utilize an integrative therapy approach, using ACT, solution-focused therapy, and motivational interviewing.

My communication style

I have an open, compassionate, and receptive communication style. Throughout our work together, I will be getting to know your background, what values you have, and whether you feel you are living a life that aligns with your values. I will offer you insights into your experiences, provide education and support when needed.

My journey to mental healthcare

I am very passionate about being a psychologist. Throughout my education and training, I have pursued experiences that have led me to become a psychologist. I graduated from the University of Florida with my doctoral degree in Counseling Psychology. I have experience at University of Florida and the University of South Florida Counseling Center.

My goals for you

I work with you in setting your goals for therapy. I ask questions and offer insight and education when beneficial. I strive to make each session the most helpful for you and help you find solutions toward healing and growth.

Our first session

For our first session, I will be asking you questions to get to know you better, determine what brings you to therapy, and discuss your goals for treatment. Beginning in the first session and throughout our work together, I will be getting to know your background and personal history.
