Angela Sastry LPC

Angela Sastry, MA, LPC, RYT is a professional counselor specializing in mind-body wellness. Among Angela's practice areas are counseling for chronic stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic pain, PTSD, eating disorders, relationship issues, work-related stress, and everyday life challenges.

"I believe providing encouragement and acceptance are important to the therapeutic process. Therefore, I apply an integrative, contextually client-centered approach to helping individuals achieve their goals and maintain personal wellness. Mixing conventional and alternative approaches, I draw on various styles and techniques to incorporate what will be most helpful. By working toward identifying and fortifying unique strengths, you can better attain lasting personal empowerment and overall joyful health".

Angela utilizes a nervous system approach that offers biofeedback to help integrate mind-body wellness.  

By utilizing Beyond Healing Center's Somatic Integration & Processing conceptualization model, Angela provides a whole person-centered approach to health. One of Angela's areas of interest is supporting healthcare workers who experienced work-related stress and trauma and helping them achieve healthy lifestyle goals.

Another area of practice includes integrating somatic practices and the intuitive eating philosophy to help individuals achieve a healthy relationship with food and body image.  In these sessions you will become familiar with Intuitive Eating as a path to cultivating a healthy relationship with food, mind, and body, and apply these principles to daily living.
