Angelina Lipman

Bedford, NY
MA, PHD

Many people allow life's disappointments, perceived mistakes, and missed opportunities to define them, leading to feelings of regret, fear, loss, and helplessness.

Drawing on a blend of Western and Eastern psychological philosophies, she uses her expertise from her PhD in social-personality and industrial-organizational psychology to foster balance across spiritual, emotional, and physical dimensions.
