About Me

---

My name is Angela Cummings and I am the founder of Alegna Counselling & Therapy Services. Alegna is where you will feel heard, your hope is restored and your healing promoted. I am a Registered Social Worker with thirty years experience in both community service organizations and private practice. 

I hold a Diploma in Social Services Worker, a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with a major in Family Systems and an Honours Bachelors in Social Work. I am passionate, absolutely love the work I do and believe in taking a client centered holistic approach. In addition, I have several up to date evidence-based certifications (Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Trauma, etc.) and employ what is to best to suit your needs in a nonjudgmental, collaborative and supportive atmosphere. Further, I utilize Function Analysis to fully understand your story and find embedded patterns in your cognition and behaviours. I also take pride in finding and highlighting the positives of what is going well for you in your life. In addition, I am a member in good standing with the Ontario College of Social Workers & Social Service Workers. 

Again, Alegna is where we ensure you feel heard, hope is rekindled and your healing promoted. Finding the steps to inner peace one moment at a time, one conversation at a time! Let’s turn your trials into triumphs.
