There is nothing more sacred than witnessing emotional healing.
— Angela Avery, LPC, NCC

For over 10 years, I have helped nearly 1,000 therapy clients find peace, clarity, and healing. If you're struggling with heartbreak, toxic relationships or marriage problems, here’s what you should know about me:

  • I will want to be your best friend, but instead will provide you a validating, supportive therapy experience.

  • I am a no BS’er. I also tell it like it is—no sugarcoating.

  • I may use foul language - it is sometimes the best form of communication.

  • I know how to help you navigate challenging relationships, set boundaries, and rebuild self-respect - because I’ve done it.

  • I’ve personally experienced divorce, widowhood, blended families, and co-parenting struggles—I understand your pain.

  • I specialize in narcissistic abuse recovery and post-separation abuse, helping you build resilience and move forward.

  • I guide clients to rebuild their marriages through communication skills, behavior changes and emotional improvement.

  • I am Nationally Board Certified and regularly update my continuing education.

  • I have a Master’s Degree from Oakland University and a Bachelor’s from Michigan State University. (Go Green!)

  • I educate family law attorneys & therapists on high-conflict relationships and narcissistic abuse.

And, I’ve written a book!
