“I've seen a lot of therapists before and feel Angela is one of if not the best therapists I've seen. I'd describe my current situation as desperate or urgent. It's complicated in a way I was initially concerned about to connect with someone who didn't have prior access or knowledge to my history which is hugely important and relevant to what I'm going through. Angela somehow managed to expeditiously capture enough (and in a way I truly felt understood) to begin the work that's needed to heal. She's managed to ask deeper questions with perfect timing throughout our sessions to gain even deeper understanding. I don't believe my therapist, who I like, have had for 5 years and knows all the ins and outs could provide the commensurate level of support and relief that I've received from Angela in just these last few weeks. I feel she's gone above and beyond what I could wish for and I feel truly hopeful and at ease under her care.”

Getting to know Angela La Luzerne
My name is Angela La Luzerne, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California and other states. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Columbia University. I’ve been in the behavioral health field for over 20 years, working with clients aged 16 to over 90 in a variety of settings. I specialize in mood disorders (anxiety, depression, etc.), life transitions, chronic pain, trauma, PTSD, as well as substance use and related challenges such as codependency, relationship issues, relapse, and family conflict. Currently, I work with clients statewide via telehealth.
My approach
I believe it is an honor to join someone on their path through life, especially during challenging moments. I work with each individual through a strengths-based, person-centered, trauma-informed lens, utilizing a personalized therapeutic approach tailored to each client’s needs and goals. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) as appropriate. Through collaboration, we define specific therapeutic targets and establish realistic, attainable goals for therapy.
My focus
Have you ever wondered, “Why is this so hard?” “How did I find myself here?” “What do I do now?” I work with clients who often feel hopeless or stuck. The desire to get unstuck—to make changes and show up for life in a happier, healthier way—is a noble one. We may uncover thoughts, beliefs, or behaviors that no longer serve you well—your journey could feel overwhelming at times. However, our therapeutic relationship provides a safe, sacred space for you to explore new possibilities, and through a variety of interventions tailored to your individual needs, change IS possible!
My communication style
I believe it is vital to acknowledge and treat the whole person—you! Physical, mental, and emotional health are deeply integrated, and I honor that in our work together.
