Angela Kronenberg MA, LPC - Practice Owner

At the core of my belief is the understanding that we, as humans, inherently strive for our best selves. Each of us harbors a deep-seated desire to flourish, and our unique internal strengths bolster our natural resilience, guiding us through life's inevitable challenges. Sometimes, however, the journey can present obstacles that are difficult to overcome alone. It's completely normal to seek guidance in learning new skills and to have support in nurturing your strengths.

I am dedicated to assisting children, teens, parents, and families as they explore their needs and discover effective strategies for enhancing their overall well-being. Together, we will work step by step to cultivate strength and resilience.

With over 18 years of experience in counseling children, adolescents, and families, I employ a humanistic, strength-based, and client-centered approach. My training includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Collaborative Problem Solving, Mindfulness, Sources of Strength, and Perinatal Mental Health. Throughout my career, I have empowered young individuals to gain insights and develop skills to navigate their emotional and behavioral challenges, while also guiding families to mend connections and foster growth.

I have a particular passion for supporting new mothers and families during the postpartum period. This time, while often joyful, can also be filled with challenges as parents navigate the emotional and physical changes that come with welcoming a new life. I offer compassionate guidance to help families adjust to their new roles, providing strategies to promote mental well-being and strengthen family bonds.

Additionally, my background with animals—particularly horses and dogs—has revealed their profound healing abilities. The bond between humans and animals can provide comfort and therapeutic benefits that enhance the healing process. Through my practice, I offer a limited number of equine-facilitated psychotherapy sessions, allowing individuals and families to experience the unique support that animal companionship can provide.

I look forward to the opportunity to collaborate with individuals

I view counseling as a collaborative process built on trust, authenticity, and mutual respect. Together, we will explore your current challenges, build insight into patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and identify meaningful goals for growth. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable being honest, supported in your experiences, and empowered to make changes that feel both realistic and lasting.

I primarily work with children, adolescents, and young adults navigating emotional, behavioral, and relational challenges. I have extensive experience supporting individuals working through trauma, difficulties with emotional regulation, family conflict, and struggles with accountability and identity development. I am passionate about helping clients better understand themselves, build confidence, and develop practical skills to navigate their day-to-day lives more effectively.

My clinical background includes working in a residential treatment setting, where I have provided individual, group, and family therapy. Through this work, I have supported youth in addressing complex behavioral concerns, processing difficult life experiences, and strengthening their relationships with family and peers. I utilize a combination of evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Collaborative Problem-Solving (CPS) and trauma-informed care, while maintaining a strong person-centered foundation.

I am here to provide a space where you can feel heard without judgment, challenge yourself in meaningful ways, and build the tools needed to move forward with confidence. I look forward to working alongside you as you navigate this process of growth and change.

Your journey is important, and a significant part of it involves discovering who you are. Therapy is a beautiful voyage of self-discovery, providing you with the opportunity to explore your thoughts and emotions in a safe and nurturing environment. It is a space where you can feel understood, validated, and heard without any fear of judgment. You are the expert in your lived experiences, and my goal is to help you process those experiences and cultivate your most authentic self.

I understand that every person is unique in how they experience life and how they choose to process it. My approach is person-centered, focusing on your individual needs and strengths. At Growing Strength Counseling, I have gained invaluable post-graduate experience, working alongside a team of dedicated professionals who have provided me with guidance and insight into effective therapeutic practices. Together, we will work collaboratively as a team to identify your strengths, challenges, and the resilience you can build to overcome future obstacles.

I am passionate about empowering adolescents and young adults to discover their true potential and develop unbreakable strength. By utilizing trauma-focused and person-centered approaches, I aim to create an environment where you can unpack issues that may have been weighing you down for far too long.

Taking that first step toward mental well-being requires a great deal of courage, and I commend you for it. The next steps toward a new beginning are in your hands, and if you believe that I could be a valuable resource on your journey, I would be honored to walk this path alongside you.
