Empowering Your Journey to Elevated Living
Our Vision
The vision for ElevateLife Therapy and Consulting is to create a world where mental health and well-being are priorities for all individuals, especially within communities of color. A commitment to destigmatizing mental health issues, promoting self-care and self-empowerment, and fostering a culture of acceptance and support for individuals from diverse backgrounds. Our practice envisions to inspire positive change and transformation within individuals, families, and communities of color, leading to a more connected, resilient, and thriving society.
Our Mission
The mission for ElevateLife Therapy and Consulting is to provide culturally competent and inclusive mental health services and consulting to empower individuals and communities of color to thrive and achieve holistic well-being. We focus on addressing the unique mental health needs, challenges, and experiences of people of color, while promoting healing, resilience, and social justice within marginalized communities. We seek to create a safe and affirming space for individuals to explore their identities, confront systemic oppression, and cultivate self-awareness and growth.
Our Story
Envisioned years ago, but officially established in 2023, ElevateLife Therapy and Consulting was the culmination of untiring dedication and unwavering belief in creating a powerhouse for positive change. Founded by Angelique York, LCSW, a dedicated owner and psychotherapist, the journey from vision to reality was guided by her personal trials and triumphs. Originally envisioned as a safe and affirming space for Black Indigenous people of color (BIPOC) individuals to find community, empowerment, and healing, ElevateLife T&C has evolved into a sanctuary where clients are not merely passengers in the tumultuous waves of life, but are equipped to navigate and rise above challenges. It is a place where clients are not only acknowledged, but truly understood and validated in their experiences. We believe that the elevation of the mind is the very essence of elevating life itself.

Meet the founder: Angelique York
Hey there
I believe in the power of transparency and authenticity in therapy. It's important for you to feel comfortable being your true self, even if it takes time to get there. This journey is about progress, not perfection, and my goal is to support you in getting better each day. Whether it's providing encouragement, accountability, or clarity, I want each session to leave you with something valuable.
My decision to establish my private practice was driven by the need to address the barriers that prevent individuals, especially those from similar backgrounds as mine, from seeking therapy. Many felt unseen and unheard in traditional therapy settings, which motivated me to create a space where BIPOC individuals can feel understood and supported. As a black woman in the mental health field, I am committed to challenging negative stereotypes and promoting mental wellness for communities of color.
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in the state of California (License No. 114254) and hold a Master's degree in Social Work (MSW) from the University of Southern California. Throughout my career, I have worked in various areas of social work, from legislative and policy roles to international efforts in combating sex slavery and human trafficking in the Philippines. Each experience has been instrumental in shaping me into the owner and founder of ElevateLife Therapy & Consulting, LCSW, Inc. I may not know what brought you here, but I am grateful that you have arrived. I am excited to join you on the journey towards elevation.
