Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Angela Simbro. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.

I have seen a handful of therapists in person over my adult life. Angela is hands down my favorite. I was initially nervous about trying therapy online because I was afraid that it would feel impersonal. But I have had such severe social anxiety that I was afraid I’d avoid leaving my house to see someone locally. Finally after 2 years of trying hard to pull myself out of the hole I’ve been sliding back down into I filled out the survey and was matched with Angela. I signed up for a video call as my first visit in hopes that we’d get a better feel for each other with the intention of proceeding with chat visits only. I enjoy speaking with her so much that I’ve never even considered doing chat visits since the first call.
Her own experiences as a neurodivergent makes her a no nonsense problem solver with the empathy and understanding to carry the lamp and lead the way to a better understanding of myself and how I interact with the world. She’s very interactive and intuitive. I may start a session thinking that a certain struggle is what’s causing a road block. She sees past that and will often steer me toward the root cause of my anxiety. Our brains work similarly so I always want to know what approach we are taking to tackle a problem so that I understand how it helps. I appreciate her willingness to educate me and her extensive education and love of the field really shines through.
For the first time in two years I find myself sleeping better and actually feeling the pull to get out of the house a bit. My personal relationships are getting better. I am so happy that I was placed with Angela and can’t wait to see where else our visits will improve my quality of day to day life.
Thank you for all you do, Angela! There’s no doubt in my mind that being placed with you was “Kismet!” ❤️

I appreciate the feedback I received in various experiences. Her advice and input helps me to open my mind and remind myself of all the support and personal strength I have. Talking with her and taking her advice has helped me to appreciate and live life to the standards I set for myself. Thank you Angela Simbro!! Hoping for many more sessions!

I recommend teen counseling daily. I have an amazing therapist that actually listens and offers helpful suggestions. She also holds me accountable when I am wrong. That is very much appreciated!

Her qualifications are without question. She knows what she is talking about. She is very caring and not at all cold. You can tell she genuinely wants to help.

Angela is quick to respond on messages and is adaptable on times for video sessions. She’s knowledgeable and has helped me work through some of the issues I didn’t even know I truly had. I’ve been a better person to my wife, my kids, and friends by understanding some of my own problems and now realizing it’s normal and something that can get better with realization and work. Angela allowed that to happen and I look forward to continuing down the path we’re on.
