About Angela
Angela Dawn Foretich centers her practice on evidence-informed methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, to help clients build practical skills and shift unhelpful patterns.
Background and approach
She is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who brings 17 years of experience working with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, grief, trauma, and phobias. Her work emphasizes strengths and skill development so clients gain tools that apply to present and future challenges.
Foretich has substantial experience supporting individuals and caregivers dealing with life-threatening illness, bereavement, and major transitions. She also addresses a broad range of concerns such as relationship and family issues, anger, self-esteem, compassion fatigue, chronic pain or illness, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, and coping after disasters or separation.
Her approach blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based methods, Client-Centered principles, and elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy to tailor sessions to each person’s needs. Known for respectful, sensitive, and compassionate care, she helps clients identify strengths, practice new coping strategies, and navigate difficult life changes.
Angela encourages a collaborative process that honors each person’s goals and resources while offering practical support and steady guidance.
Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns so clients can reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression and learn practical coping strategies. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages psychological flexibility by helping people notice thoughts and feelings, clarify their values, and take committed action toward meaningful goals, which can be useful for grief, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based approaches explore interpersonal patterns and emotional bonds to improve relational functioning and emotional regulation, helping those who struggle with connection or trust.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with each client to determine which methods best match their goals, needs, and preferences, and will adjust techniques over time as progress and circumstances evolve.
Online therapy with this practice uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, continue work during transitions, and receive ongoing support from licensed professionals regardless of geography.
