I am Angie Dominguez, a dedicated bilingual Registered Mental Health Intern, Certified Trauma Professional, and Certified Grief-Informed Professional. With a Master’s degree in Counseling in Mental Health & Addictions from Johnson and Wales University, I bring a wealth of knowledge and compassion to my practice. I am committed to helping individuals overcome life’s challenges by combining trauma-informed care, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based techniques. My goal is to create a safe and nurturing environment for clients navigating unresolved trauma, anxiety, or major life transitions.
Throughout my career, I have worked in diverse settings, including outpatient therapy and educational institutions, where I have provided tailored care to children, families, and adults. My expertise includes evidence-based approaches such as Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I empower my clients to build resilience, enhance emotional well-being, and foster healthier relationships. My collaborative and empathetic style helps clients explore their emotions, develop coping skills, and move toward self-awareness and empowerment.
Inspired by my own personal experiences, I became a counselor to provide the support I lacked during my childhood. This passion drives me to address addiction and trauma, particularly in underserved populations. My multidimensional approach allows me to meet clients where they are, guiding them toward personal growth, healing, and a more fulfilling life. If you’re ready to take the first step toward emotional balance and empowerment, I am here to walk alongside you on your journey.

I was born and raised in Miami, Florida and first completed my Bachelor of Arts in Tampa, Florida at the University of South Florida majoring in Interdisciplinary Social Sciences, with a concentration in Psychology and Sociology. Then I obtained a dual Master of Arts in Psychology with an emphasis in Counseling Psychology from Webster Vienna Private University in Vienna, Austria, and Webster University in Missouri. My training abroad allowed me to practice holistic counseling in diverse settings such as international social hubs, LGBTQIA+ cultural centers, and a university counseling center. I worked with clientele from different cultural backgrounds and age groups, where I utilized a variety of therapeutic approaches including individual counseling, group counseling, expressive arts interventions (music, art, dance, poetry), and guided meditations.
My therapeutic approach focuses on client-centered, humanistic philosophies that aim to explore and treat the individual as a whole: mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual. My approach is grounded in a stance of empathy, acceptance, and respect for self-discovery and self-determination for all clients. Through techniques taken from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Gestalt therapy, I help clients become aware of and identify feelings, emotions, conflicts, and behaviors of the here-and-now.
Through open and honest communication, my goal is to create a therapeutic space that is both a collaboration and a healing mechanism for clients who may be experiencing: depression, anxiety, relationship stress, substance abuse, or existential issues. Overall, I believe the therapeutic relationship is the most valuable part in the process of therapy. In therapy with me, both client and therapist have the potential to transform the space into their own unique canvas.
Dra. Jessica Alemán
Psicólogo clínico titulado
Soy de Miami, Florida. Obtuve mi Doctorado en Psicología Clínica de NOVA Southeastern University, donde me especialicé en enfermedades mentales a largo plazo, y obtuve mi licenciatura de Florida State University, donde me especialicé en Psicología. He tenido el privilegio de tratar a clientes de diversos orígenes tanto en inglés como en español, y tengo experiencia trabajando en una variedad de entornos, como programas para pacientes hospitalizados, unidades de crisis, centros comunitarios de salud mental y clínicas para pacientes ambulatorios. Si bien mi orientación teórica es ecléctica, me inclino por la terapia cognitivo-conductual y los enfoques rogerianos (o centrados en la persona). Soy competente en el tratamiento de varios problemas de salud mental, que incluyen depresión, ansiedad, esquizofrenia y otros trastornos psicóticos relacionados, trastorno bipolar y otros trastornos del estado de ánimo relacionados, abuso de sustancias, incluido el diagnóstico dual y disforia de género. Ayudo a los clientes a identificar sus patrones de pensamiento problemáticos, a desarrollar mecanismos de afrontamiento, a procesar su trauma y a comprender cómo las experiencias pasadas afectan su nivel actual de funcionamiento.
Valoro la naturaleza transformadora de las relaciones terapéuticas sólidas y soy competente en brindar terapia a individuos, grupos, parejas y familias. Mi objetivo es aplicar mi compasión y experiencia al proceso terapéutico y ayudar a los clientes a mejorar sus vidas y, en última instancia, lograr una sensación de paz y satisfacción.
En terapia, soy empático, imparcial y agradable; Creo un espacio seguro en el que los clientes pueden comenzar el proceso de curación. Cuando es necesario, sé cómo guiar a las personas con delicadeza a través de la exploración de sus vulnerabilidades, pérdidas, dolor y trauma. La filosofía detrás de mi enfoque terapéutico se captura mejor en las famosas palabras de Ernest Hemingway: "El mundo rompe a todos, y luego, algunos son fuertes en los lugares rotos".
