(Angie) Anjanette Winkler, LPC, LCPC

With 21 years of clinical experience, (Angie) Anjanette Winkler brings a deep commitment to helping people move forward after difficult life experiences. She has worked across every level of behavioral healthcare and has advanced training in how early trauma affects a child’s brain, which informs her trauma-sensitive approach to treatment. Winkler emphasizes growth and healing through interventions that respect each person’s history and strengths.

She frames therapy as a collaborative partnership in which the client is the expert on their own life and she contributes professional knowledge to deepen understanding and support change. She provides an atmosphere of unconditional acceptance and respect for each person’s values and pace of progress. Winkler aims to gently encourage forward movement - pushing clients a little further than they might push themselves while never pushing them down.

Winkler has extensive experience with families formed through adoption and foster care and affirms all sexual orientations and gender identities, as well as all faiths and religions. Her clinical toolbox includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Trust-Based Relational Intervention, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. She works with adults, couples, families, and children, and offers crisis intervention and stabilization when needed.

She supports people facing depression, anxiety, trauma, anger management challenges, relationship difficulties, parenting concerns, career or employment stress, substance use, and general stress management. Passionate about connecting with vulnerable members of the community, Winkler seeks to offer hope and to reduce stigma around illness and addiction. She holds the credentials LPC and LCPC, which stand for Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor respectively, reflecting her formal qualifications to provide professional counseling services.
