A safe space for healing…a safe space to be.
Mental Health Care
My approach
I view counseling through a cultural lens, this means I focus on all the dimensions of your lived experience as an individual who interacts with the world around them. My goal as a counselor is to help you acknowledge and consider your cognitive, emotional, relational, spiritual, motivational, and aspirational facets. It is my hope to support your self-healing journey by facilitating a deeper understanding of your worldview perspective, connections, and goals.

Angeles Polett Coss Gaona, Ph.D., LPC, PSC
A little about me:
Polett here! I am a queer immigrant (first generation) counselor from Mexico. I am a former school counselor (4yrs) and am currently seeing clients virtually through Alma.
I hold a doctorate of philosophy in counselor education and supervision and aim to show up for myself at my fullest capacity. My dissertation topic focuses on eating behaviors and transgender males in my dissertation.
On evenings and weekends, I enjoy carving out time for stretching, reading, yoga, walking, cruising on my bicycle, traveling, and enjoying food in a deliberate manner.
