About Angela Watt (She/Her)
Angela Watt, LMFT, helps teens and adults navigate lifeās challenges with compassion, insight, and practical strategies for lasting change. As a Marriage & Family Therapist at LifeStance Health, she provides individual therapy for patients across California, supporting individuals who are experiencing anxiety, depression, and trauma-related concerns, as well as a wide range of other mental health needs. Angela creates a supportive and collaborative environment where patients can better understand themselves, strengthen coping skills, and move toward meaningful personal growth. Her therapeutic approach integrates evidence-based interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based techniques. Angela works with teens, adults, and seniors facing concerns such as ADHD, grief, bipolar disorder, substance use challenges, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions. She also has experience supporting members of the LGBTQ+ community, individuals with autism spectrum disorders or developmental disabilities, first responders, military veterans, and others seeking personalized mental health care. Angela believes that successful therapy begins with trust, authenticity, and a genuine therapeutic partnership. She strives to meet each patient where they are, helping them identify strengths, and overcome obstacles. Outside of her clinical work, Angela enjoys singing, spending time with her pup, and binge-watching forensic shows and documentaries.
