Above Ground Podcast #174: Finding Joy and Connection

This week on episode 174 of Above Ground Podcast, we talk joy and connection with Angela Amoia. Angela is a practicing LMFT in Newburgh and an Adjunct Professor at Mount Saint Mary College. Check out our Nippertown InnerView for October where we talk support, insurance, psychedelic-assisted therapy, and our connection to it all.

“We all come from fucked-up-ness”, says Angela Amoia. Something she has learned from her years in practice and her own self-knowledge is that we all have something in our history that needs healing. The roads well traveled to joy and connection are littered with the broken and damaged. 

Angela wants us to understand that healing is possible if you’re willing to embark on the ultimate work in the school of life. To transcend your life circumstances to become the ultimate version of yourself. Through therapy of all kinds, and a belief that you are worthy.

Angela currently is not accepting new clients. Please check out Psychology Today‘s listing for updates.
