Angie Galles, Associate

Angie is an experienced mental health professional, having worked for 20+ years in a variety of capacities focusing on human development.

She works to achieve this by honouring clients’ stories and struggles through curiosity and an unwavering belief that humans are inherently resourceful…but sometimes become stuck and can benefit from the support of a caring and informed mental health professional.

Couples and families naturally hit bumps in the road, which risks people feeling alone and lost in their struggle.
