Why work with me?

I have been divorced, remarried, widowed, and in a partnership again, so I know how to start over.

For over a decade, I have guided women and couples using wisdom, strength and clinical knowledge to empower and reimagine relationships.

Welcome to The Counseling Studio.

I started The Counseling Studio to help women find empowerment and couples reconnect.

In the studio, we craft healthier relationships so you aren’t the only one carrying the emotional load. We pick up the damaged pieces and rebuild after divorce. And, here, we gather strength to start again after heartbreak with a bolder life.

I specialize in the challenging, toxic partnerships - whether it’s narcissistic abuse, high-conflict divorce, or marriage disconnection and all the accompanying feelings like anxiety and depression.

During times like these, you need an experienced therapist who packs a punch with the skills to help you feel empowered.

I deliver relationship therapy with a blend of straightforward guidance, warmth, and unwavering commitment to your growth. No sugarcoating—just real conversations, meaningful progress, and genuine breakthroughs.

Whether you’re in the midst of heartbreak, divorce, or are rebuilding your marriage, I have been there, and I know the way forward.

The benefits to working with me include:

  • Healing from narcissistic abuse

  • Understanding toxic patterns

  • Rediscovering your self-worth & confidence

  • Restoring intimacy in your marriage

  • Healing from infidelity

  • Rebuilding trust in yourself and relationships

  • Reducing anxiety and depression

  • Navigating co-parenting with a challenging ex

  • Creating healthy boundaries in love & life

  • Transforming grief, loss, or life transitions into growth

Women come in to the studio to break free from toxic relationship patterns - whether it is picking the wrong guy, staying too long in disrespectful situations, or accepting less than they deserve.

Together, we craft self-esteem, set boundaries and learn productive communication skills.

Couples come in to the studio to heal from infidelity, learn how to improve conflict or to repair a disconnected marriage.

Likely, you’ve felt like roommates, and don’t know how to start loving each other again. While divorce is always an option, you’d prefer to stay married and work hard to understand each other and reconnect intimately.

Together, we re-sculpt a better, stronger version of your relationship. One that is reciprocal, loving, respectful and trustworthy. You had that, and want it again.

Co-parenting in a toxic pattern is emotionally draining so that you struggle being present for your child.

The Counseling Studio and Angela Avery, LPC, NCC can help you navigate family court, co-parenting and rebuilding a life so that you can feel empowered to handle any situation.
