About
Angela Powell, MEd, LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado & Missouri
Certified Individual & Couples Emotionally Focused Therapist
Emotionally Focused Therapy Supervisor Candidate
I deeply care about my clients and am passionate about working with Emotionally Focused Therapy to help repair relationships and rebuild a more positive sense of self. I want to give you space to talk about your pain, joys, and relationship experiences so we can make sense of them together to bring about real and lasting change. I'm on your team, advocating for you, fighting for your relationship, experiencing what you feel, with you in therapy every step of the way.
We all desire to be seen and understood, to be believed in and not criticized; these are good longings, and they drive how we work in EFT. You will never hear me call you out or ask, "Why did you do that?" Instead, I'll help you find the very good reasons you make the moves you make in your relationships. We cope through protection when we feel hurt or unheard, and our action tendencies are just paths we take to get our messages across. I'll help you find a clearer and more vulnerable (i.e., connecting) way to be heard and to listen to the ones you love.
I am interested in hearing about and understanding your uniquely held identities, cultural background, and beliefs. This includes how your identities intersect and have shaped your lived experience of challenge, pain, and/or discrimination. I humbly desire to incorporate these important aspects of self into our work together. If you are a person who practices faith, we can fold your beliefs into our work as well. Our time together will be shaped by who you are, what you bring, and what you need.
I am excited to hear your extraordinary story and honored to spend time with you.
