Getting to know Angela Whitton
Hi, I’m Angela Whitton, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New York. I work with adults and teens who are navigating life’s transitions, struggling with self-worth, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Maybe you’ve spent years putting everyone else’s needs before your own, find yourself repeating the same patterns in relationships, or are navigating a life change that has left you questioning who you are and what you want. I’m passionate about helping people reconnect with themselves, build a stronger sense of self-worth, establish healthier boundaries, and develop more fulfilling relationships. I also have extensive experience supporting individuals healing from trauma, including sexual abuse and relational wounds, who are ready to reclaim a sense of safety, confidence, and agency in their lives.
My approach is relational, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that meaningful change begins with understanding yourself, not judging yourself. Together, we’ll explore how your experiences have shaped the way you see yourself, relate to others, and navigate the world. I draw from psychodynamic therapy, CBT, somatic approaches, and EMDR therapy, tailoring our work to your individual needs and goals. Whether we’re exploring longstanding patterns, processing difficult experiences, or developing new ways of responding to life’s challenges, my goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and gently challenged to grow.
I earned my Master’s degree from Fordham University’s Graduate School of Social Service and I am trained in EMDR therapy. With more than a decade of experience working with clients from diverse backgrounds and life experiences, I recognize that no two healing journeys look the same. I believe therapy is an opportunity not only to heal from the past, but also to discover who you want to become. If you’re ready to build a more authentic, confident, and fulfilling life, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I want you to know that you don't have to arrive with everything figured out, and you don't have to explain yourself in any particular order. My work is relational, which means the therapy relationship itself matters. I'll be warm and engaged with you, and I'll also gently challenge you when it's useful. For clients healing from sexual assault, abuse, or relational trauma, we move at your pace, and you stay in control of what we talk about and when. Whether you're a teen navigating something hard for the first time or an adult who has been holding it together for others for years, my hope is that you leave sessions feeling more understood and a little more like yourself.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Our first sessions are about getting to know you, understanding what brought you in, and looking at how your history is showing up in your present. From there, we set goals together, so the work reflects what you actually want rather than what I think you should want. I then tailor the approach to you. That might mean EMDR and somatic work for trauma that lives in the body, CBT for the patterns that keep you stuck, or mindfulness practices for moments when things feel overwhelming. We check in regularly about what's helping and what isn't, and I adjust as you grow and your needs shift.
