MEET DR. Angelica flores-arman

Licensed Clinical Psychologist, CYT

Pronouns: She/her

Who am I? I’m Angie, a therapist, a psychologist, a co-investigator. As a therapist I usually help people deepen their self-awareness and insight. Sometimes I challenge people to change themselves. Other times I collaborate with people to create and execute plans to change their environment. What our work will involve depends entirely on your particular situation. I strive to bring my best self to the therapy space. This means that I show up with curiosity and compassion, as well as generally a good dose of humor. I prioritize patient goals, needs and areas of strength, and work from an assumption that my clients have innate wisdom (even if they don’t yet know it) and that they are, or can become, the experts on themselves.

I treat a broad range of presenting issues and specialize in helping adults recover from trauma (neglect, abuse, attachment disruptions, abandonment and other types of loss), shock trauma (single event traumas such as accidents, assaults, etc.) and its consequences (i.e. depression, anxiety, emotional instability, identity confusion and relationship conflict). As a result of my social location, I am especially attuned to issues pertaining to minoritized status and cultural differences and have extensive professional experience helping BIPOC and LGBTQ+ individuals who have had negative, unhelpful or oppressive therapy experiences in the past. My work as a therapist is informed by formal training and by my lived experience within the U.S. American sociopolitical landscape.

My telehealth-based private practice is now split primarily between NYC and ABQ. I am licensed to practice in New York, New Mexico, Nevada and Florida.

Relevant Training

I graduated from CUNY’s Graduate Center Clinical Psychology Doctoral Program in 2015. I began providing therapy and testing/evaluation services in 2009 and have been in private practice since 2017. My theoretical orientation is integrative and I conceptualize client experiences through a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive lens. My work is informed by a variety of clinical models and techniques, including Brainspotting, Somatic & Attachment Focused E.M.D.R., Somatic Experiencing and Psychodynamic therapy.
