About Angela

Background and approach

With 11 years of clinical experience, she combines practical techniques and compassionate support to guide clients through life transitions, mood disorders, and issues like postpartum adjustment, eating and food-related concerns, and workplace or financial stress. Her style centers on collaboration and respect, meeting each person where they are and adapting plans to their individual needs.

Angela uses evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and client-centered principles to help people build coping skills, reduce distress, and clarify values and goals. She also brings expertise addressing adoption and foster care issues, divorce and separation, pregnancy and childbirth concerns, self-harm, and women's issues.

Clients can expect an approach that emphasizes sensitivity, practical problem solving, and flexible goal-setting. Angela works with people seeking coaching-style support as well as those needing structured therapeutic intervention, and she tailors her work to each person’s priorities and pace.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Angela integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to shape online sessions in ways that are clear and collaborative. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical tools for anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and coping with life changes. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and the client’s own pace, creating a supportive environment for work on self-esteem, grief, parenting concerns, and intimacy-related issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process; the therapist will work with clients to explore which methods match their goals, preferences, and presenting concerns. Together they adapt interventions over time, combining skills training, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing when helpful to support decision-making, goal-setting, and emotion regulation.

Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varying schedules and needs. These options make it easier to attend regular sessions, try different formats for skills practice or coaching, and maintain continuity of care through life transitions and busy routines.
