Hi! My name is Angela Burleigh and I love reading a good story, sipping strong coffee, and going on adventures. It’s no wonder I devoured missionary biographies and Nancy Drew books as a kid. I also love learning about people and helping them understand more about their relationship to themselves, the important people in their lives, and their Creator. I’ve had to do lots of hard work in my own spiritual and emotional journey, and I would consider it a priviledge to be able to walk alongside you in yours.
My background is in Christian missionary and cross-cultural work, and that’s what led me to get my counseling license and begin working with people who felt stuck in their own journeys and needed an outside eye or catalyst to help them move forward. I earned my mastors degree from Reformed Theological Seminary in Orlando and have been working as a counselor with children and adults of all ages since 2014. My official title is Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida.
I take a holistic approach to counseling by looking at how God designed our physical, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual natures to interact with each other. To do this, I draw from a variety of counseling methodologies including Relational/Narrative Therapy, Existential Therapy, EMDR, Neuroscience, Mindfulness, Play Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I’ve also been a student of the Bible for most of my life, and my understanding of Scripture is the foundation for all that I do. I especially like to work with those who are feeling Spiritually numb or beat down by other Christians. I’m not the type to give pat answers and tell you to pray harder, and I certainly don’t have all the answers. But I’m happy to cry with you, listen to your heart, and share the things that I have learned along the way.
My areas of focus are depression, anger, anxiety, trauma, relationship stress, marriage conflict, singleness, phase of life issues, codependency, and spiritual numbness. I’m also trained to use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) and administer the PREPARE/ENRICH couples assessment tool.

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.
