Meet Angela
Angela Mason, RSW, MSW, BST
-
Angela Mason is a Registered Social Worker working with adults and seniors at Levity Counselling Services in Ottawa. She obtained her Bachelor and Master of Social Work from Carleton University. Angela also attained a three-year diploma in Behavioural Science Technology from St. Lawrence College.
Angela characterizes her work as employing compassion, empathy, and humor to assist individuals in understanding and gaining fresh insights and viewpoints regarding the challenges they face in life. Past clients have described her as warm, caring, and skilled in helping them to see their experiences in a different and more healthy light.
Therapy sessions with Angela promise to be meaningful, explorative, enlightening, and conducted according to your preferred schedule and pace. She believes that an important part of therapy is looking back on important life events in a wholistic (like, looking all the whole - all the parts) way to comprehend what was going on and to see that how you responded to this event makes sense.
Angela feels strongly that humans tend to be overly critical of themselves. She emphasizes the importance of analyzing our perspectives and expectations of both ourselves and others to ensure that how we approach these evaluations and expectations is done in a healthy manner. She typically works with people long-term and until they feel capable to manage life’s challenges on their own. Many people who work with Angela do come back to therapy for a session here and there to maintain all the hard work that they achieved. -

1) When not at work, you can probably find Angela at home with her husband Rob, her kids Finn and Liam, and her three cats, Chloe, Willow, and Cinder;

key points
Working with Angela
Here are some things to know about working with Angela:
Angela adapts her approach to therapy based on the specific issue at hand and the preferences of her clients. This flexibility means that sometimes she may suggest informal homework, like paying attention to thoughts and emotions in certain situations or trying out techniques at home. Together in session we will explore the thought, behaviour, and emotion triad with encouragement for reflection on this between sessions.
Angela most often uses a narrative approach, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectic Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Accelerated Resolution Therapy (A.R.T.), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT).
Angela is fond of working with people who have a history of trauma, and with individuals who are challenged to manage their emotions and tolerate distress, people who are struggling on their relationships and with boundaries, and those with anxiety and depression.
- Angela’s session rate is $150 for individuals and $225 for Accelerated Resolution Therapy sessions for trauma processing.
