Angela Bates, LGPC

Psychotherapist
MD
Angela’s counseling style is empathetic, mindful, and client-centered. She believes in treating everyone with respect and dignity, but equally important, she prides herself on demonstrating compassion, genuineness, and empathy. Angela’s treatment approach is grounded in building a therapeutic relationship by establishing trust and rapport from the onset of sessions. Although her foundational theoretical orientation is person-centered, her approach is eclectic, integrating Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Angela has experience working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, and self-esteem issues. Angela believes it takes a great deal of courage to seek professional help and even more courage to implement needed change. There is a significant stigma surrounding therapy, causing many to suffer in silence. Within her sessions, Angela creates a safe space and introduces her policy of confidentiality. She believes you do not have to suffer any longer or feel trepidation about counseling. If you are ready to take the next steps toward a more fulfilling lifestyle, Angela would love to help navigate this important decision with you. Angela earned her Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Walden University. She is board-certified by the National Board of Certified Counselors (NBCC) and is a licensed graduate professional counselor in the state of Maryland. A firm believer in personal self-care, Angela fully engages in proper self-care to be completely present with her clients. In her spare time, she enjoys entertaining family and friends and loves to cook, finding these hobbies both inspirational and therapeutic. She is married and has one son.
