Angie Yemma
Therapist, LCAT, BCDMT
From the outside, it looks like you're doing everything right. You work hard, show up for others, and push yourself to succeed. But behind the scenes, you're exhausted. You overthink every decision, replay conversations in your head, and constantly wonder if you're doing enough. No matter how much you accomplish, it never seems to feel like enough.
If this sounds familiar, you're not alone.
I specialize in helping teens and young adults break free from perfectionism, anxiety, and self-doubt. Together, we'll uncover the patterns that keep you stuck, learn how to quiet your inner critic, and build confidence that isn't based on achievement alone.
As a therapist and dance/movement therapist, I believe healing happens when we learn to listen to both our minds and our bodies. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. Therapy with me isn't about becoming a different person—it's about helping you feel more like yourself again.
You don't have to keep carrying the pressure alone. If you're ready to stop striving for perfect and start living with more confidence, self-compassion, and joy, I'd love to help.
