Balance & Tranquility

 
Angela Bennett, LCSW is a therapist whose work is rooted in creativity, mindful living, and a deep respect for the human nervous system. Before becoming an independently licensed therapist, Angela spent years as an Arizona‑certified elementary teacher, where she learned that healing and learning both begin with safety, curiosity, and connection. Those early classroom experiences continue to shape her approach today—practical, compassionate, and grounded in real‑world understanding of how people grow.

Angela went on to pursue advanced clinical training, becoming a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP‑I & II). She is certified in using Dialectical Behavioral Therapy Skills, and trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Processing Therapy. Her work blends evidence‑based modalities with a creative, integrative lens that honors the whole person—mind, body, and lived experience.

Nature, creativity, and mindful living are central to Angela’s personal and professional life. She often incorporates nature‑based metaphors, expressive practices, and present‑moment awareness to help others access clarity, regulation, and resilience. Her work invites people to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and discover new ways of understanding their stories.

Angela’s path—from the classroom to the therapy room—reflects her lifelong passion for helping others feel seen, supported, and empowered to heal.
