About Angela

Angela "Angie" Hildebrand is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) practicing in Montana with 14 years of experience.

Background and approach

She has worked extensively with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, depression, and substance-related concerns, and she also brings familiarity with issues such as bipolar disorder, ADHD, and LGBT-related matters. Her background includes a variety of additional focus areas ranging from attachment and adoption matters to caregiver stress and body image concerns.

Angie emphasizes creating an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings at their own pace. She draws from evidence-informed methods including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, psychodynamic ideas, and client-centered principles to tailor an approach that fits each person.

Angie frames the work as collaborative and supportive, helping clients identify goals and practical strategies to move toward greater well-being. Those who choose to work with her will find a steady, empathic presence committed to helping clients take meaningful steps toward more satisfying and resilient lives.

How Angie’s Approaches Translate to Online Care

Angela uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) alongside client-centered techniques to guide online work. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, offering practical tools for issues like anxiety, depression, and stress. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to help with mood instability, overwhelm, and relationship challenges. Client-centered methods prioritize empathetic listening and collaboration so clients feel heard and involved in planning their care.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the therapeutic process. Angie works collaboratively with each person to clarify goals, try different strategies, and adapt methods as needs and preferences become clearer. This flexible stance helps clients find skills and insights that actually fit their life and priorities.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexible options to match schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity over distance, and use homework or in-the-moment coaching through messaging between sessions.
