About Angelina
Angelina Rhoades is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York with seven years of experience. She focuses on practical ways to reduce stress and manage anxiety so daily life feels more manageable. Her approach is warm and straightforward, aimed at helping people build confidence and get through hard moments.
She helps people who are coping with addictions and recovering from trauma or abuse. She also supports those dealing with anger, low self-esteem, and motivation challenges.
Background and approach
Sessions are a place to talk through what is happening now and find usable steps forward. Angelina believes each person knows their own story best. She works collaboratively and listens first, then offers ideas that match the person’s goals and strengths.
The emphasis is on small, doable changes that add up over time. Her background includes seven years of clinical work in varied settings in New York. That experience informs a practical style that balances support with clear direction.
People can expect a steady, nonjudgmental presence focused on progress. Outside of specific concerns, Angelina also addresses related issues like attachment and abandonment worries, family and blended family stress, body image, caregiver strain, chronic illness, codependency, communication problems, and substance-related concerns. She helps people untangle complex problems so they can move forward with more confidence.
Evidence-Based Techniques and Online Care
Angelina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and real-life changes. One approach emphasizes learning coping skills to reduce anxiety and manage stress, teaching breathing, grounding, and thought-checking strategies that can be used in moments of high tension. Another approach focuses on recovery from addictions and substance-related issues by breaking unhelpful patterns and building routines and supports that reduce cravings and risky behaviors.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Angelina works with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals, needs, and daily life. She listens to what has and hasn’t worked before and adjusts the plan as progress is made so the work stays relevant and doable.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow for face-to-face conversation when a deeper dialogue helps. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support quick updates, ongoing check-ins, and brief coaching between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit care into busy routines and to keep momentum between meetings.
