Angela Howell-Moneta Headshot Reframe Voices Society Bio

Board Director

Dr. Angela Howell-Moneta

Angela brings a deeply informed and compassionate lens to her work as a Registered Psychotherapist, grounded in an M.Ed. in Counselling Psychology and Masters of Arts and Doctor of Philosophy degrees in Developmental and Educational Psychology.

With more than two decades of experience supporting children, teens, adults, and families, she blends research-based approaches with a trauma-informed, client-centered style. Her Ottawa-based practice, Mindful Resilience Counselling & Psychotherapy, specializes in ADHD support, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and eating disorders, always rooted in creating a safe, non-judgmental space. As both a clinician and a parent of a neurodiverse child, Angela brings deep empathy and a family-centered perspective to her work.

“As a therapist and a parent, I have seen how early detection and understanding of the symptoms of mental health challenges can change a child’s life.

Parents are often balancing a heavy load of responsibilities while they help their children. Joining the board is my way of helping more Canadian families feel supported and less alone.”

Board of Directors

Who we are

We are parents and youth (19+) united to protect kids’ mental health and get ahead of eating disorders.

Reframe Voices Society is a registered non-profit in British Columbia dedicated to helping parents, educators, and communities recognize the early signs of disordered eating—so kids and teens can get support before silent struggles become serious health crises.

With a trauma-informed approach, we deliver compassionate, preventative education and practical tools that give families the confidence to start the conversations that matter most.

We are on a mission to help parents, guardians, and educators recognize early signs of eating disorders, gently disrupt harmful patterns, and build understanding and trust so kids feel safe expressing their feelings about food and body image — helping to prevent the spiral into silence and shame before a mental health crisis takes hold.

Our Mission

Why we care

Some of us have seen what happens when intervention is delayed, comes too late or never arrives at all. Left untreated in childhood, eating disorders can progress into chronic lifelong conditions or life-threatening mental illnesses.

An eating disorder diagnosis is a health crisis that disrupts personal and family functioning. Eating disorders carry an increased risk for both suicide* and medical complications.

* If you or someone you love is navigating eating disorders, please know you’re not alone — and there’s help out there. In Canada, you can reach out to the National Eating Disorder Information Centre at nedic.ca.
