About Angela
Angela Koech is an AASW social worker with nine years of professional experience in Australia. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety, and supports those coping with grief and loss. Angela also assists with parenting concerns, career challenges and low self-esteem.
Her starting point is simple - clients know their story best. She works alongside people to identify strengths that can be used to manage hard times.
Background and approach
Conversations are practical and focused on small, manageable steps rather than big, abstract plans. Angela uses everyday language in sessions. She helps people build routines, try new approaches and notice what makes a difference.
Sessions can include problem-solving, emotion regulation and planning for the next practical move. Many people come to her feeling stuck after loss or unsure about their next career step. Angela gives space to explore what matters, and to test realistic options.
Forgiveness and life purpose are additional areas she supports when relevant to someone’s situation. Taking the first step can feel scary, and Angela acknowledges that courage. She aims to make the first sessions straightforward - clarifying concerns, setting simple goals and agreeing on how to work together.
Evidence-informed approaches and online therapy options
Angela draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that aim to reduce distress and build coping skills. One common approach focuses on practical behaviour changes and routine-building to reduce stress and anxious feelings; this involves setting clear, small goals and tracking what helps. Another useful approach centres on processing grief and loss by creating space to remember and make meaning, while also establishing new daily patterns that support wellbeing. These techniques often help with depression, low self-esteem and decisions about work or parenting.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Angela will discuss options with each person and together decide which methods suit their goals, needs and preferences. She views therapy as a collaborative process and checks in regularly to adapt the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls let people see non-verbal cues and work more like in-person sessions. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or moments when writing feels more helpful. These options make it possible to continue work on anxiety, grief and life changes without lengthy travel or big schedule changes.
