Angela Boles, LCMHC

Angela Boles is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina with ten years of professional experience. She supports adults, children, and adolescents, with a particular focus on adult women who have faced trauma or inequity. Her work centers on helping people manage stress and anxiety, process trauma and abuse, cope with grief and loss, and address depression and compassion fatigue.

Angela emphasizes practical growth through exploring communication styles, engaging in objective self-reflection, and fostering self-acceptance. She guides clients in building confidence and developing techniques to improve emotional well-being and relationships, beginning with the connection to oneself and extending outward to others. Her additional focus areas include body image, communication problems, divorce and separation, forgiveness, life purpose, mood disorders, panic and social anxiety, post-traumatic stress, and women’s issues.

Angela acknowledges how privilege, bias, systemic racism, and inequity shape life experiences, trauma, and healing. She practices cultural humility and is willing to address bias, historical and racial trauma, and their effects on the therapeutic process. She approaches each person as the expert of their own story and meets clients with respect and practical support for change. Taking the first step to begin therapy is recognized as an act of courage, and she affirms clients for getting started.
