Angelique Lawrence is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Virginia. She brings 20 years of experience helping people manage anxiety, stress, relationship strain, and life transitions. Her approach is warm and interactive and she centers respect and compassion in sessions.

Background and approach
Sessions often focus on small steps that fit into daily life. Angelique draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice unhelpful thinking and try different responses. For relationship concerns she uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method to improve communication and trust.
Imago Relationship Therapy informs her work with couples wanting new ways to understand each other. She has supported people through grief, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, addiction concerns, ADHD, sexual and intimacy issues, and career or identity questions. She also works with people facing panic attacks, social anxiety, and sleep or eating problems.
Angelique offers a collaborative style where the client’s goals shape the work. She balances practical skill-building with attention to feelings and meaning. People who want a therapist who combines direct tools with empathy often find this approach helpful.
Practical approaches for online therapy and relationship work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small committed steps toward those values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes where avoidance has become a habit. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and mood symptoms. It often includes short exercises between sessions to build new habits. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps partners and individuals notice and name core emotions and change interaction patterns that cause disconnection or conflict.Figuring out the best approach is part of the first sessions. The therapist works collaboratively to match methods to a person’s goals, preferences, and daily demands. That means combining skill practice, values work, or relationship exercises based on what the client says they need.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow visual cues for relationship work and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text-based messaging can be useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or homework support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep continuity when schedules change.
