About Angelo
Angelo Fouras is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 16 years of practice. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and relationship or intimacy concerns. Sessions are offered in English and he works from New Jersey.
He aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can speak openly. Angelo listens closely, offers honest feedback, and moves at each person's pace. He emphasizes respect, compassion, and practical steps people can use between sessions.
Background and approach
Angelo uses a blend of approaches tailored to the person in front of him. He draws on client-centered methods to center the person's own goals. He also uses cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness techniques to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new, healthier responses.
His background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Master of Social Work from Rutgers University. He has provided care in schools, community settings, outpatient clinics, group homes, and through telehealth. That variety shaped his ability to adapt to different needs and life circumstances.
People come to him for many concerns beyond anxiety and stress, including parenting strain, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and career worries, ADHD, bipolar considerations, caregiver stress, and problems with communication. He supports people dealing with life changes like divorce, aging, or grief, and those facing chronic illness or co-occurring issues. Angelo frames therapy as a collaboration.
He helps people set short- and long-term goals and uses tools from several methods to meet those goals. He encourages steady progress and practical change that fits each person’s life.
Approaches that translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and experiences. It emphasizes listening, validating feelings, and shaping the work around what matters to the individual. This approach can help when someone needs space to sort out priorities or build confidence.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. CBT is often used for anxiety, stress, mood concerns, and coping with life changes.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. It can be useful when emotions feel intense or relationships are a repeated source of conflict.
Angelo treats finding the right approach as a team effort. He will talk with each person about goals, try different strategies, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That collaborative stance aims to match methods to the client's needs and preferences.
Online sessions use video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexible options. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction for skill practice and deeper conversation. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a work break or short check-in. Live chat and text messaging support ongoing check-ins, brief problem-solving, and reminders between sessions. These formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent around busy lives.
