About Angelina

Angelina Monell is a licensed therapist based in New York who works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family challenges, grief, and life transitions.

Background and approach

With 13 years of clinical experience, she helps people navigate complicated personal changes and relational patterns while supporting exploration of life purpose and meaning. Angelina applies a compassionate, client-focused stance to build practical coping strategies and improve day-to-day functioning.

Her work draws from a range of well-established approaches, including cognitive behavioral techniques, client-centered listening, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and psychodynamic perspectives. Angelina blends these methods to create individualized plans that address symptoms as well as underlying patterns, tailoring interventions to each person’s concerns.

She holds LMHC and LCPC credentials and brings a thoughtful, culturally responsive presence to sessions, supporting clients from varied backgrounds and circumstances.

Approaches That Shape Online Work

Angelina often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach can be useful for addressing anxiety, stress, and situational problems by teaching concrete coping skills and habit changes. She also draws on client-centered therapy, which emphasizes listening, empathy, and building a strong therapeutic relationship so clients feel understood and can explore personal goals at their own pace. Mindfulness therapy is another element of her work, offering practices that increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity to difficult emotions.

Choosing the right combination of methods is part of the therapeutic process. Angelina collaborates with each person to determine which approaches best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time as progress and circumstances evolve. This collaborative stance helps ensure the work feels relevant and manageable for the client.

Online therapy with Angelina is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it possible to maintain regular contact, practice skills between sessions, and receive support without travel, which can help clients stay consistent with their work and apply new strategies in daily life.
