About Angela
Angela Dailey is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 30 years of practice in rural Montana. She has worked as a community mental health director and has been in private practice since 1995. She sees people for concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting and anger.
Her rural practice exposed her to a wide range of issues. She compares that work to a country doctor - treating whatever walks in the door. That background contributes to practical problem-solving and a broad skill set for common life problems.
Angela combines clinical work with teaching college psychology and sociology. She draws on that academic background to explain ideas plainly and to teach coping skills in session. Sessions often include straightforward tools and steps that can be used between meetings.
Nutrition and lifestyle are a clear interest. She wrote the book "Cooking to Cure, A nutritional approach to anxiety and depression" and integrates diet, exercise, and social connection into conversations about mental health when relevant.
She emphasizes helping people manage transitions and build coping strategies. That can mean problem-solving, planning healthier routines, or learning ways to respond differently when anger or frustration rises. Angela also listens and reflects to help people sort options and make decisions.
If scheduling is an issue she notes that posted hours may not reflect her full calendar. Prospective clients are invited to check available times and confirm session arrangements before booking.
How sessions work
Evidence-based approaches and online sessions
Angela draws on well-established, evidence-based techniques and adapts them to each person's situation. One common approach she uses is problem-focused work, which breaks a difficulty into manageable steps and builds practical solutions for stress, anger, or life transitions. This method helps people identify triggers, choose responses, and test new behaviors in everyday life.She also integrates lifestyle and behavioral strategies that target mood and energy. That includes looking at nutrition, exercise, and daily routines to support emotional regulation and reduce anxiety or low mood. These changes are presented as specific habits someone can try and adjust over time.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. From there they decide together which techniques to prioritize and how to pace the work.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not list specific online formats. Ask about available session types and times when you complete the matching questionnaire. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, offer shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so therapeutic work integrates with daily life.
