Angela Welch

My goal for every client is to change what you want to change using self-compassion and understanding of the human bodies nervous system. Building a foundation of awareness to feeling connected and awareness of when you are protecting yourself. I will recognize and be with you when you are afraid, worried, and anxious. I support clients to find answers and building a toolbox of options that will help reinforce connections to others and self. It is my practiced theory that when we are safe, and connected, humans have behaviors that we and others find desirable. Using more than one approach I tailor my services directly to your needs. I aim to create space for healing through education, and an increased self-awareness that results in the increase of co-regulation. When humans feel Safe, Seen, Soothed, and Secure they behave exactly the way they want to. I am driven to do this work by my belief that humans want to do well, to be successful, and they are fighting to achieve this through survival the only way that they know how. Having been intimately involved with the systems of Foster Care and Adoption, I am passionate about supporting this community of families and individuals. Supporting those that identify with parenting a child that brings more stress than joy, managing frustration controls your day, and/or you find yourself lost in grief thinking of the life you imagined. Together we will explore your story and learn how your story has affected your ability to connect with others. I will hold space by being with you to feel seen, heard, and valued.
