Angela uses a person-centered approach that puts the client's priorities first.
Background and approach
She blends that with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to help people change unhelpful thoughts and build coping skills. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused, with concrete tools to use between meetings. Her background includes long experience addressing trauma, mood shifts, grief, intimacy concerns, and relationship struggles.
She has worked with people from diverse cultural and LGBTQ backgrounds and with those managing co-occurring issues. That variety informs how she tailors plans to each person's life and values. Angela accepts international clients and offers sessions in English.
She provides multiple online formats so people can choose what fits their schedule and comfort level. She helps clients set short-term and longer-term targets and checks progress along the way. People meet her to talk through overwhelm, build emotional skills, and regain direction after loss or big life changes.
She emphasizes small, repeatable steps that lead to real change. If someone wants a practical, collaborative approach to anxiety and related concerns, she offers steady guidance and clear next steps.
How her approaches work in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on what matters to the individual. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps people set goals that match their values and strengths. This approach helps when someone wants a respectful, nonjudgmental space to sort priorities and feel heard.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. In sessions, clients learn to notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes to test new ways of coping. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress because it provides clear steps to practice between meetings.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. Sessions often include skill coaching for distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and better communication. These skills can be helpful when mood swings, anger, or relationship strains interfere with daily life.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about goals, habits, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Then she will recommend and try methods collaboratively, adjusting as needed based on what the client prefers and what produces progress.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for fuller conversation and shared exercises. Phone sessions can fit a short break or lower bandwidth. Live chat and messaging work well for brief check-ins, journaling between sessions, or ongoing skill practice. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel.
