About Angela

​I, Angela DeGuerra, am a Licensed Professional Counselor - Associate under the supervision of LaJunta “Micki” Rios. I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary education from the University of Houston-Clear Lake and a Master of Education degree in Counseling and Development from Lamar University. I provide supportive counseling services with empathy and compassion, assisting my clients with their journey towards their own peace. I have a multifaceted work history, which allows me to have a unique understanding of people from different backgrounds.
​​
I am a former Elementary teacher, where I worked with the at-risk population and marginalized communities.​ I am able to bring an understanding and viewpoint from a teacher's perspective, but also have the ability to relate to the students to understand the challenges that they may face as well. I have also previously worked in the Oil and Gas industry which gives me a unique understanding of shift-workers and the challenges that shift-working families can face. I can also relate to being a female in a male dominated environment and working in a dangerous industry where life altering events can occur. Those jobs, as well as my time as an LPC-Associate, helps with my ability to assist clients in learning how to practice healthy behaviors, resolve conflicts, and operate through life difficulties.
​
My passion for counseling stems from my personal life experiences and diverse background. With a background rooted in Hawaiian and Hispanic heritage, I bring a unique perspective to my practice. As a parent to three children, I have navigated through their various stages of development and understand the daily challenges that they can encounter. I also have an understanding of the complexities of divorce, single parenthood and blended families. My journey has equipped me with a broad understanding of different cultural, gender, socio-economic backgrounds, and family dynamics that can each have their own unique challenges.
​​​
I enjoy working with people from all age groups and various backgrounds. I provide a safe space for children, adolescents, teens, young adults, adults, couples, and families to be heard and understood. As a counselor, I tailor my approach to meet your unique needs and preferences. I am here to help with your thoughts and feelings and to explore the "why" and "where" of your emotions in a safe, supportive and nurturing environment for meaningful growth and healing. I aim to collaborate with clients by utilizing multiple counseling modalities that provide support and guidance to address life’s challenges and stressors. I look forward to helping each client one step at a time to achieve a healthy mental well-being.​​
